Curriculum planning
|
Our school adopts “child-centeredness” as the core foundation of our school-based curriculum. We combine different teaching methods, for example, high scope, project learning and heuristic teaching method, together with real-life themes, group learning, diversity learning corner, as well as plentiful activities and games inside and outside school. We help our children build self-confidence through encouragement, affirmation, independent thinking and creative problem-solving.
We will follow the "Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide" (2017) to plan curriculum. Children of nursery classes will not be asked to write, and there will not be mechanical copying exercises and drills on calculation.
|
|
Learning / Teaching approach and activities
|
|
Our school follows the child-centered development principles, we encourage “more participation, more practice” through different activities and scenarios, so that students “learn from doing”. and build a strong foundation in regard to “learning attitude”, ultimately enhancing their “learning motivation”. These in turn make students love to learn and build up in them enjoyable learning experiences.
|
|
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
|
|
The school applies continuous observation to assess students’ performance in cognition and language, emotion and sociality, arts and culture, and physical development. In the domain of knowledge, we adopt a continuous assessment tool and devise an “individual growth file” and we also help students build up an “artworks collection”.
|
|
School Characteristics

It stresses an all-round education in spiritual, moral, intellectual, physical, social and aesthetic developments, based on Biblical truths. We endeavor to train students to be confident and happy in character, fully able to face and solve difficulties.
