Primary
Teaching Strategy
Activity based
- Ages 6 to 11 years
Primary School
Our primary school starts from Year 6 to Year 11 using the Cambridge Curriculum. Our lessons are interactive and enjoyable, learning is practical and meaningful. To present a complete and balanced curriculum, a variety of teaching styles are used depending on the objectives of work and the needs of the students.
Our classrooms are appealing, featuring workstations and colourful displays of student work. Even though academic performance is crucial, we think students should also have the chance to excel in a wide range of other pursuits.
This balanced approach encourages self-expression and a passion for learning. The teachers lead focused and carefully planned activities in small groups and at the same time observe and assess the child’s development.

Our Curriculum
Written and oral communication are key life skills. Our English curriculum, which encompasses listening, speaking, writing, and reading, provides the bedrock for lifelong learning. Fluent communicators are a necessity in the professional field, and at Cradle International (CIS), we are equipping and inspiring our learners to fulfil their language potentials.
The English curriculum is designed to equip the children with a strong command of the written and the spoken language, and to develop their love of literature through widespread reading. At CIS, all learners will be guided to read for information and pleasure. Through this, they will acquire a wide range of vocabulary and a good understanding of grammar and punctuation in order to write accurately and clearly in a wide range of contexts, for different purposes and audiences. Our desire is to make the teaching of English truly inter-curricular, with writing activities linked to all subjects.
Science is a powerful in the hands of learners; when it is properly taught and understood. CIS encourages students to use logic and the scientific process. Our teachers empower learners with the skills to carry out their own experiments and investigations.
