Green School's Primary Curriculum in the essential subjects is based on the
Cambridge International Primary Curriculum - an internationally recognized
framework developed by one of the most reputable and longest-established
education institutions in the world. The curriculum is delivered in
schools globally.
It comprises frameworks in English, Mathematics and Science which are
developed to emphasis continuity and progression throughout the years,
feeding naturally into the Cambridge International Lower Secondary
Curriculum, and then into IGCSE courses.
It is organized to reflect teaching targets, and what students should master
by the end of each year group. Of course, not all students will
achieve all targets at the same time. We recognize that different students
have different abilities, learning styles and stages of development.
This remains therefore a broad framework and structure on which to plan
teaching and learning targets.
An overview of each subject follows.
