Teaching approach of the school |
Singapore and international style |
The Early Years Foundation Stage and The Cambridge Primary Curriculum is founded on the values of the University of Cambridge and the best practice in schools. Each framework for English, Mathematics, and Science is designed to engage learners in an active and creative learning journey while providing a comprehensive set of progressive learning objectives.
The objectives detail what the learner should know or what they should be able to do in each year of primary education. They provide a structure for teaching and learning and a reference against which learners' ability and understanding can be checked. The Cambridge Primary Curriculum promotes an inquiry-based approach to learning to develop thinking skills and encourage intellectual engagement.
Students in Years 7 to 9 go through the Cambridge Lower Secondary curriculum which is based on international best practice for schools.
In Years 10 and 11, students prepare for the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) exams. It is the world’s most popular international qualification and serves to prepare students for the Cambridge International A-Levels.
The Cambridge International A-Levels (Advanced Level) are subject-based qualifications conferred as part of the General Certificate of Education, as well as a High school completion qualification offered by established examination boards in the United Kingdom, with more than 55 subject choices available to choose from. Obtaining an A-Level certificate is generally required for university entrance, with universities granting offers based on grades achieved.
