Frequently asked questions about the Primary School Programme

What is the Primary School Programme?

The Primary School Programme (PS) is a curriculum framework for young learners aged 5–10 designed by the K12. Founded on a philosophy that recognizes a child’s natural curiosity, creativity and ability to reflect, the PS generates a stimulating, challenging learning environment to nurture those assets and foster a lifelong love of learning in every child. The PS, like all K12 programmes, is transdisciplinary, meaning students learn across subject areas while investigating big ideas.

In the PS, students learn about significant concepts through units of inquiry. Units of inquiry interweave subject areas such as mathematics, language arts, science and social studies. This approach encourages students to make their own connections between what they learn in core subject areas and how it relates to the world around them.


Frequently asked questions about the Middle and High School Programme

What is the Middle and High School Programme (MHS)?

The Middle and High School Programme (MHS) is a curriculum framework designed for learners aged 11–17 by the k12. The MHS is a seven-year programme. In an MHS classroom, you’ll notice that the students are at the centre of learning. They are drawing connections between all subject areas, learning is explicitly linked to the world around them, participation in a foreign language is required, and a variety of formal and informal assessments are used to inform teaching and learning.

MHS learning experiences infuse global points of view wherever possible in order to promote understanding of other cultures, an awareness of the human condition and an understanding that there is a commonality of human experience.

The MHS curriculum framework comprises four subject groups, providing a broad and balanced education for early adolescents. Students take the core courses of language and literature, individuals and societies, mathematics and sciences. A unique feature of the programme is that it extends the traditional curriculum to include immersion in four themes—approaches to teaching and approaches to learning, global contexts and concepts. Students also complete a personal project, which is an independent piece of work that may be an essay, an artistic production or another form of expression.
