Cambridge Curriculum

 

Our Preschool / Kindergarten Program follows the British Early Years Foundation Stage(EYFS).

​

Our Primary / Afterschool (GAKUDO) Program is based on the IGCSE Program. Students in Key Stage One are introduced to foundations in Reading, Writing, Science, Mathematics and  Information and Communications Technology (ICT) through a system of practical applications, supported by a positive and stimulating learning environment.

While English is the primary language of instruction at Ivy Prep, we strive to equip our students with a         multilingual and multicultural background by offering the following additional Modern Foreign Languages (MFL):  Japanese, Mandarin, Arabic and Spanish.

​

To better assist families and their children in moving on to the next stage of schooling, ongoing assessment ensures that each child’s progress and development are continuously meeting the highest international standards. The school prepares students to face future challenges by creating education programs relevant to today and tomorrow.

 

The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Themes and Principles : 

 

Children in an EYFS program learn by playing and exploring; and being active, creative and critical. In the early years, we focus on building the foundation of your child’s education in 3 essential areas:

​

• Communication and Language

• Physical Development

• Personal, Social and Emotional Development

​

As your child learns and grows, the areas of focus sharpen and become: 

​

• Literacy

• Mathematics

• Understanding the World

• Expressive Arts and Design

​

These 7 areas are used to plan your child’s learning and activities. Our teachers will make sure that the activities and projects are suited as closely as possible to your child’s unique needs.
