The Upper Primary School caters to students from year 4 to year 6 (7 to 11-year-olds). While the core subjects of English, Mathematics and Science follow the International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum; other subjects such as History and Geography follow the English National Curriculum with complimentary infusions and components from Ghana, our host nation.

​

Our Year 6  students write the International Baccalaureate Primary Checkpoint Examinations in English, Mathematics and Science. The papers are marked externally and allow the School to benchmark its achievements against other academies around the world.  All students receive diagnostic feedback on their individual performance.

​

Students are taught Mathematics, English, History, Geography and Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) by their class teachers.  Subject specialists teach Science, French, Music, Art, Physical Education and Information Technology.

​

Our Online Scholastic Reading Scheme encompasses all students who are able to read at their own pace progressing through a variety of diverse texts.  The scheme also levels the students and set targets for progression.

​

The Upper Primary School aims to expose our students to the ‘reality outside the classroom’. We do this by incorporating field trips and visiting speakers who are experts in their field into the curricular plans.
