Rigorous and personalised academic programmes
In our educational programmes, language learning is fundamental, throughout each educational stage.
Infants
In the infant stage, English language learning focuses on playful immersion in the language. Children are exposed to the language, encouraging a natural learning environment. This method helps children become familiar with the sounds and rhythms of the language, promoting a solid foundation for language development.
Primary
During primary school, the focus shifts towards building a larger vocabulary and introducing basic grammatical concepts. Through practical activities, such as dialogues and reading and writing exercises, students begin to use English in a more structured way, improving their fluency and confidence.
Secondary
At the secondary stage, students delve deeper into more complex aspects of English. Emphasis is placed on advanced grammar, reading more complex texts and writing. In addition, discussion and debate in English is encouraged, enabling students to develop effective and critical communication skills.
Baccalaureate
In the Baccalaureate, the focus is on preparation for higher education and the professional world. Students hone their English language skills through analysing literature, writing essays and conducting research. At this level, our students use English with a high degree of proficiency in a wide variety of academic and formal contexts.
