At our school, we create a vibrant and supportive environment where young children can thrive. Our dedicated primary teachers are not only highly qualified, but also passionate and caring – ensuring each child achieves their academic best while feeling safe, happy, and understood.
We use activities, discussion, teamwork, and innovative tech to make learning fun. If a student isn’t as participative in class as they usually are, teachers will check in privately and offer low-pressure ways to contribute.
Each class is led by a qualified teacher, so your child can participate in lessons independently. If you’d like to stay involved in your child’s learning, you can access lessons, review their work, and communicate with teachers through the Parent Hub.
We make sure children have lots of safe, teacher-monitored ways to make friends. There are various online clubs to choose from, as well as co-curriculars and in-person events across the globe.
We teach the same broad and balanced curriculum as all UK schools, giving your child a solid foundation for future education.
We offer interactive, live lessons to all our students, delivered in an internationally accessible timetable. Select your preferred time zone to explore the available subjects.
Our package includes the seven core subjects below. There are three compulsory subjects that are added to students’ timetables by default under our offering: Assembly, Circle Time, and Future Skills (Year 6).
*Core package includes either French or Spanish
Parents have the choice of adding on additional subjects to their child’s package for an extra fee per subject.
Please note that some extracurricular activities, such as school trips, events, and summer camps, may incur additional fees. You may also choose to purchase optional books from a recommended list provided by the school. Additionally, examination centre fees are not included in the tuition costs. Find out more.
