Primary
At this level, we are selective about curriculum in all subjects with the explicit objective in mind that quality rather than quantity is the basis of meaningful learning at this stage. Children are trained to assimilate and internalize knowledge and perceive its relevance in real life situations.
We aim at making a smooth transition from acquisition of basic skills at the preschool level to the achievement of formal learning objectives universally represented by the quartet of knowledge, skills, understanding and application in the process of administering specific inputs/outputs by way of syllabi and curricula.
‘Hands on’ approach to learning still continues to play a significant role in our system of education at the primary level. However, the emphasis now shifts from general to essential areas such as language(s), mathematical ability, general awareness, health and hygiene.
