In the Kindergarten
and Primary school, the children's natural curiosity and enthusiasm
form the basis for an inquiry based approach to learning. Using
the IBO's Primary Years Programme, teachers create a stimulating
and varied learning environment that allows each student to
progress according to his or her potential. Children are encouraged
to share their diverse social and cultural experiences and to
develop the ability to think analytically, see connections among
ideas, and be imaginative and creative actors in their own learning.
A variety of assessment
methods, including student self reflection, allows continuous
evaluation of the learning process and regular feedback to both
the children and the parents.
In addition to language
(reading, writing, oral communication), mathematics, science
and technology, social studies, visual arts, music, drama, and
personal, social and physical education, children are exposed
to French as a foreign language or offered supplementary English
classes for non-native speakers. The use of computers and technology
is an integral part of classroom work.
