Middle School Curriculum
Class 7 and 8
13–14-Year-olds
CONNECTING EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE TO INTELLECTUAL CAPACITY.
In Class 7 and 8, we foster independent thinking, creative problem solving, and a sense of confidence which equips students for future challenges. Our middle school curriculum stresses practical knowledge and creativity. Our graduates integrate thinking; assimilate information as opposed to memorising isolated facts; are flexible, creative, and willing to take intellectual risks.
The middle school Key Learning Areas (KLA’s) are English, Mathematics, Science, Humanities and Social Science, The Arts, Technologies, Languages, Health, and Physical Education. The curriculum unfolds a rich panorama of the world and life through the sciences, arts, humanities, and practical subjects.
Our school aims to develop well rounded human beings with a rich and nuanced understanding of human cultural experiences and forms of knowledge, as well as a strong capacity for critical thought. This includes offering significant depth and breadth to the curriculum programme that will challenge students in their areas of strength and encourage them to extend themselves into areas that may also present difficulties for them. This is done through a rich program that nurtures their interests and draws them into the world around them, as well as encouraging the capacity for self-reflection.
