Primary School

In our Primary School, we believe that learning should be fun, engaging, and relevant to each child. We use inquiry-based teaching, where students ask questions, explore ideas, and make connections to their own lives. This approach helps children develop important skills and a lifelong love of learning.
Our curriculum is enriched by specialist teachers in German, Physical Education, and Music, who bring expert knowledge to their subjects. For students who are learning English, our intensive English as an Additional Language (EAL) programme offers extra support to help them thrive in school.
Students also enjoy wonderful field trips that let them explore the beautiful city of Augsburg and its surroundings. These trips are connected to what they are learning in class, making education come alive. Weekly assemblies, concerts, musical performances, and many school events add to the vibrant learning experience.
Programme of Inquiry
Our Primary School's Programme of Inquiry is a cornerstone of our curriculum. It is designed to help students explore transdisciplinary themes that connect various subject areas, fostering a deep, holistic understanding of the world. Through inquiry-based learning, students engage in meaningful investigations that promote critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
Supporting Your Child as a Language Learner
We are committed to supporting all students in their language development, particularly those who are learning English. Our Mother Tongue Programme ensures that students maintain and develop proficiency in their native language while also acquiring new languages. We believe that strong language skills in one's mother tongue are vital for cognitive development and overall academic success.
Learning Enrichment
To meet the diverse needs of our students, we offer a comprehensive Learning Enrichment programme. This programme provides additional support and challenges for students, ensuring that each child is engaged and progressing at a pace that suits their individual learning style. Whether a student needs extra help or is ready for more advanced work, our learning enrichment services are designed to cater to their unique needs.
Field Trips
Field trips are an important part of our Programme of Inquiry. These trips allow students to experience real-world learning, deepening their understanding of what they study in class and broadening their view of the world.
Camps for Grades 3-5
For our older students in grades 3 to 5, we offer exciting camps that provide opportunities for personal growth, teamwork, and outdoor adventure. These camps are both educational and fun, helping students build confidence and develop new skills.
Reports
We believe in clear and positive communication about a child's progress. Our Reports give you detailed information about your child's academic achievements, areas for improvement, and overall development. These reports help you understand and support your child's learning journey.
What About Grades?
Reports evaluate our students' progress, using a system where AE = approaching expectations, ME = meeting expectations, and EE = exceeding expectations.
