A RICH AND STIMULATING CURRICULUM
We provide a broad and balanced academic curriculum based on the Tanzania education system set in the context of a generous amount of time for games, extra-curricular activities and opportunities for pupils to develop their social education.
Our curriculum, goes well beyond nationally expected levels of achievement and is flexible enough to be able to respond to the needs of our children and also challenge their thinking.
English, Mathematics, Kiswahili, Civics, Science, History, Geography, Social Studies (SST), ICT and Vocational Skills.
graduLessons are delivered, from the outset, by specialist teachers and this enables our pupils to experience the expertise and enthusiasm of teachers who are passionate about their subjects.
We also feel that it is important that lessons are delivered in specialist facilities, thereby making available the very best resources for learning.Our pupils enjoy the experience of a variety of teaching and learning styles, and this enables them to achieve their full potential. In addition, we recognize that all pupils have special skills, abilities and aptitudes, and that these should be supported to the full.
We are also keen to ensure that our pupils grow spiritually, morally, socially and culturally and to this end, our curriculum includes personal, social and health education which reflects the school’s aims and ethos.
It is vital that children develop an interest in education that stretches beyond the boundaries of the school day. In this way we can be sure that with successful teaching and learning, our pupils become lifelong learners.
Literacy and communication are key skills and it is our aim that pupils develop these skills so that they can communicate effectively and creatively through the spoken word and written language. From this flows an appreciation of language and literature, combined with an enthusiasm for and awareness of the rich tapestry that is the English language.
Geography provokes and answers questions about the natural and human worlds, using different scales of enquiry to view them from different perspectives. It develops knowledge of places and environments throughout the world, an understanding of maps, and a range of investigative and problem-solving skills both inside and outside the classroom.’ (Curriculum 2000 Geography)
Our principal aim is to nurture in our pupils a love of mathematics. It is a subject that is vital for everyday life, and we want our children to develop the skills, knowledge and understanding that will help them to appreciate how mathematics fits into our world. In this way we ensure that our pupils will develop a fascination for and a real sense of enjoyment in the subject
