Our Student-centred Curriculum

In our curriculum, reading, writing, listening, speaking and grammar learning are all integrated. We focus on all of them.

In both Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2, our lessons are designed to develop students’ interest and language competence in all aspects. We encourage students to learn not only during the lessons, but also before and after the lessons. Students are enabled to master different language skills step by step through engaging in various meaningful tasks and activities.

In Key Stage 1, in order to maximize students’ exposure to an authentic English environment, besides offering regular student-centered lessons, we also provide PLP-R/W lessons which are taught by both our native English teacher and local English teachers.

In fact, we believe students learn best by picking up the language through an English-rich environment. Therefore, in both key stages, we offer a large variety of programmes/ activities to maximize students’ learning opportunities. Here are some examples of our programmes/ activities:
