How We Teach

Timetabling and teaching, designed around the learner

We don't just fill a timetable — we design it. Major and general subjects like Mathematics and English receive more weekly contact time, while subjects that demand the sharpest concentration are placed earlier in the day, when students are most refreshed.

  • Major/general subjects scheduled up to 3 periods weekly per class
  • Calculation-heavy subjects placed closer to the start of the school day
  • Friday set aside for Weekly Tests — reinforcing the week's learning
  • Dedicated, qualified teachers assigned by subject and class

Assessment & Reporting

  • Continuous assessment throughout each term
  • Weekly tests every Friday across all classes
  • Full termly examinations at the end of each term
  • Detailed report cards — scores, attendance, conduct & comments
  • Results shared directly with parents — by PDF, print or WhatsApp
