Primary English Programme

Our Primary English Programme is designed to give your child a strong foundation in the four core areas of language: listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

With a balance of clear instruction, guided practice, independent work, and ongoing feedback, your child will steadily build confidence and skill in each area.

Lessons include creative exercises and activities that make learning enjoyable and also prepare your child for exam success. These skills and techniques will be invaluable as they progress through school and work towards the PSLE.
