We have a wide range of extracurricular activities for our pupils to get involved with. They get to pick whatever piques their interests. We nudge certain pupils into specific activities that they have aptitude in.
We have fully trained, qualified and experienced Early and Mid-childhood teachers and assistants who focus on the academic and social development of each child and support them accordingly. Our teachers are fully committed to the development of their pupils into smart, hardworking, diligent, resourceful globally-minded individuals.
During the process of a term, our teachers continuously assess the skills, behaviour and attitude of their pupils during every class. Before the Mid of every Term, pupils are assessed based on what they have been taught from the beginning of the Term to the half of the term. At the end of every term, an examination is held where pupils are assessed on their learning of all their subjects. The continuous assessments and the exam results are then combined to represent every pupil’s performance for that term.
To stimulate learning among our early years’ pupils, our classroom environments are set up so they can move freely around clearly defined areas for reading, writing, listening, art, science and mathematics.
Each class is assigned a class teacher who is responsible for every pupil in a class. The small size of the class allows for heightened collaboration and competition which increases the development of the pupils.
Our pupils have access to a variety of resources. These include alphabet charts, craft materials and paints, books, worksheets, knob and knob-less cylinders, educational board games, construction materials such as Lego and wooden blocks, etc.

Some spaces have been provided for Parents/ guardian to sign and also share their complains or concerns at the end of each day
Moreso, at the end of every term, we send a report card detailing your child’s academic, social, and moral performance.
Beyond this, we also have an Open Day in the middle of every term where our teachers sit down with our parents to inform them on the current performance of the child as well as any course correction that is needed. In the case of any extreme positive or negative changes to your child’s performance during a term, The Head of School will contact you to discuss it.
