Our Primary Years Programme (5 to 11 years)
Southbank’s Primary Years Programme creates a stimulating and challenging environment that nurtures a child’s natural curiosity, creativity and ability to reflect, and helps them to develop a lifelong love of learning.
At the heart of the Programme are six themes of global significance. These are explored using skills and knowledge acquired from six subject areas, as well as during town meetings, (assemblies), in the playground and from participating in extra-curricular activities.
Overall, we strongly believe that our Primary Years Programme:
- develops the academic, social and emotional wellbeing of students
- encourages students to become independent and take responsibility for their own learning
- supports students’ efforts to gain understanding of the world and function comfortably within it
- helps to establish personal values that support international mindedness.
