A balanced curriculum for a changing world

Curriculum principles

Structured, progressive and connected

Curriculum content should build progressively from one stage to the next. Students revisit important ideas with increasing depth while learning to connect knowledge across subjects and apply it in unfamiliar situations.

Interdisciplinary learning

Connecting ideas across subjects

No specific project-based-learning programme is claimed. Named interdisciplinary programmes appear here once confirmed by the academy.
