Primary School
Learning the basics
Our Primary School programmes are exclusively tailored to provide a safe, cheerful, supportive, and nurturing environment to young learners that are just starting their academic journeys. Our meticulously vetted staff of energetic and passionate teachers, technology-enriched infrastructure, and holistic, student-centric curriculum challenges and stimulates the imaginative minds of young primary school children and allows them to acquire problem-solving skills and creativity. Our educational strategies allow teachers to individually recognize and hone individual strengths and skills of each student, encouraging them to explore the world around them and develop emotional skills and empathy.
Key Features of Primary School Programme
Continuous Professional Development for Teachers
Teaching quality and school leadership are among the most important factors in raising student achievement. Beaconhouse teachers and school leaders continually increase their knowledge and skills through in-house and external training programmes to help them implement best educational practices.
Child Protection Policy
At Beaconhouse we believe that keeping children safe is everyone’s responsibility. Hence all our policies and practices support this obligation. Our Child Protection Policy provides extensive guidelines for creating safe and secure environments for all our students.
Beaconhouse Learner Profile Programme
By emphasising a dynamic combination of knowledge, skills, critical thinking and global awareness, the Beaconhouse Learner Profile serves as a cornerstone for what it means to be a Beaconhouse student. Every experience, whether inside or outside the classroom, strives to develop and instil the attributes of our holistic learner profile.
Supportive Learning Environment
Our primary schools have a safe, healthy and intellectually stimulating learning environment in which all students feel respected and connected.
Technology-Enabled Classrooms
Beaconhouse has always been the forerunner with regard to educational technology in the classroom. The Emerging Technologies across the Curriculum (ETAC) programme for primary schools integrates educational software, video cameras, digital science equipment, video-conferencing and Lego robotics into the curriculum to enliven the classroom.
Experiential Learning
Beaconhouse aims to foster global citizens that are informed, engaged and active. We provide a holistic programme in our Primary Schools that balances academics and extracurricular activities to develop well-rounded individuals.
The Beaconhouse Primary School curriculum is modelled after the Scottish Curriculum and the UK National Curriculum. The international curriculum has been contextualised and adapted to local needs. It is taught in English with the exception of language classes and the national curriculum guidelines, and strives to develop knowledge, skills, values and cultural understanding. Select Beaconhouse schools are also authorised to offer the IB Primary Years Programme for students 3-11 years of age.
