The Early Years program is for children aged 3 to 5. It combines both the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and International Early Years Curriculum (IEYC), with “play-based learning” at its core, naturally developing creativity, problem-solving skills, and social abilities. Additionally, the program offers multifaceted learning including phonics, early literacy education, mathematics, physical education, and arts activities, while providing individualized support, observation, and documentation tailored to each child’s personality and developmental pace, supporting smooth transitions to primary school.

The Primary School (ages 5-11) operates in a trilingual environment where English is the primary language, with Malay and Chinese also taught. It integrates the International Primary Curriculum with the British curriculum through thematic, cross-curricular learning. Through subjects including science, mathematics, languages, arts, and physical education, the school emphasizes developing “inquiry,” “collaboration,” and “international perspectives,” nurturing students’ ability to learn and grow independently through daily lessons and extracurricular activities.

The Secondary School serves students aged 11-16, centered on the National Curriculum for England, using Cambridge IGCSE and AQA Oxford pathways to enable students to pursue learning with future university admission and careers in mind. Through regular assessments and student self-reflection, the school promotes holistic education encompassing “learning + growth” including creativity, social skills, sports, and leadership.
