Key Stage 1 is a busy and exciting time in a child’s learning journey as students begin to build a wider knowledge and skills base, and start to explore and develop a range of learning styles.
During this two-year period, there is a focus on the core subjects of English, Mathematics and Science, alongside an increased emphasis on the International Primary Curriculum (IPC), which includes subject areas such as Art, Geography, History and ICT. The IPC naturally builds on the skills developed through the International Early Years Curriculum and is applied throughout Years 1 and 2.
In addition to this, students also learn about global citizenship and international mindedness through each unit of learning. Other subjects include music, a choice of two specialist languages from Mandarin, Bahasa Malayu and French, plus Swimming and Physical Education (PE), which are all taught by specialist teachers from across both the Primary and Secondary School.
