Lower Primary English course (7 to 9 years old)

This course is designed to help Primary 1 students develop literacy and writing skills.

Our teaching supports what students learn in local schools. It focuses on areas that are most challenging for Singaporean students.
Students will become more confident readers. They will learn to understand written texts, identify key features, and infer meanings from context. 
They will also learn to organise writing, use grammar correctly, and create different types of texts. This aligns with the Singapore MOE syllabus.

Your child will:

• explore texts for early comprehension through literature-based lessons.
• experiment with MOE text types with supported writing tasks.
• gain the confidence to speak out in communicative classrooms.
• learn to take pride in their work by acting on peer and teacher feedback.
• grow in confidence and improve their pronunciation through weekly 'Show and Tell' sessions.

This English course helps students improve their reading and literacy skills. After two terms, they will join the regular Primary 1 course.
The course covers phonics and includes a graded reading book for practice at home and in class.
Every two weeks, students explore a new children’s story. They use it to create written texts based on the Primary 1 MOE syllabus.

Your child will:

• explore engaging books to build their reading skills and comprehension.
• experiment with MOE text types using supported writing tasks.
• gain the confidence to speak in communicative classrooms.
• learn to take pride in their work through peer and teacher feedback.
• grow in confidence and improve their pronunciation of English words through weekly 'Show and Tell' sessions.

Designed in line with the syllabus set by the Singapore Ministry of Education, our Lower Primary courses will help your child succeed in school. These courses also nurture  a love for learning and encourage your child to be curious and confident about the world they live in. 

Your child will become:

• a keen reader and thinker – our courses are based on children’s literature. Students are challenged our learners to think about the themes and characters of the books they borrow every week.
• a confident communicator – we help students refine their ideas and articulate them fluently both verbally and in writing. Our teachers also encourage students to ask questions in class.
• a team player – our teachers encourage students to actively contribute to group work and complete classroom tasks.
• a resilient and reflective learner – in our supportive classrooms, students see how errors can become a chance to learn and improve. They discover how to turn an error into a vital stepping stone to academic success.
