In the Primary years, we aim to equip
Tunku Putra students with
problem-solving and research skills in addition to basic numeracy and literacy
skills. Creativity is encouraged across the curriculum from both teachers and
children. To achieve this, we use a variety of resources from Australia and
Britain and draw on our local environment as a resource for geography and
history projects. By exposing students to a variety of co-curricular
activities within the school day, we also hope to produce versatile and
open-minded students who will take a love of learning with them as they move
on through their Secondary education.
International Secondary Curriculum
The progressive and diversified secondary curriculum
provides a variety of learning opportunities for Tunku Putra students. Based on
Australian and United Kingdom education standards, the curriculum ensures
students are able to transfer seamlessly to schools in other parts of the
world.
The Junior Secondary (YR7/8) students are involved in
a "bridging" programme designed to allow each student to develop his
or her initiative and study skills and to encourage greater confidence
and independence in their learning. Each student undertakes a set of
core subjects designed to create and instill a set of skills which
will provide the foundation for Secondary education.
The programme for students in the Middle School (YR9/10) is
based on the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (I.G.C.S.E),
one of the most recognized qualifications around the world. I.G.C.S.E courses
are renowned for developing vital education skills including recall of
knowledge, oral skills, problem solving, initiative, teamwork and
investigative skills.
The resulting qualification in I.G.C.S.E. provides a
foundation to pursue higher education courses around the world such as the
"A", "AS" levels (UK), and the International Baccalaureate.
Students will also complete the Cambridge I.C.T. (Computer)
course which is integrated throughout the Secondary school.
