Primary Education:
- Stage 1 Ages: 5 – 7 years; classes: classes 1 & 2
- Stage 2 Ages: 7 – 11 years; classes 3,4,5 & 6
Primary education is a programme for young learners that combines the curriculum with integrated assessment. The curriculum frameworks for each subject for primary are organised into two stages and six year groups. They reflect the teaching targets for each year group and provide comprehensive learning objectives. For each primary subject, the curriculum is presented in content areas or ‘strands’. These are further subdivided into ‘sub-strands’. The framework promotes an enquiry-based approach to learning to develop thinking skills and encourage intellectual engagement.
Lower Secondary:
- Stage 3 Ages: 11 – 14 years; classes 7, 8 & 9

Our programmes are progressive, giving our learners a clearly defined path to success. The lower secondary stage leads seamlessly from primary to secondary building on the learners’ development from the primary stage.
Upper Secondary IGCSE:
