Our school embraces a dynamic English curriculum that combines the expertise of both local and native English teachers (NETs) in every P.1-4 lesson and also half of the P.5-6 lessons per week. Having 5 dedicated NETs, our students are able to access to a genuine English context. Our NETs empower students to learn English in the classroom and beyond through a variety of innovative approaches. Students not only develop linguistic proficiency, but also gain increased self-confidence in expressing themselves in English.

To support students’ spelling skills, we have designed a school-based Phonics and Speaking Booklet for P.1-3 students. Using the “finger talk” blending method, most of our students can confidently sound out words on their own. Additionally, our school has collaborated with the EDB school-based support services to develop a comprehensive phonics and speaking curriculum for P.4-6. This curriculum equips our students with the necessary skills for group discussions, presentations, and interviews in their next stage of their education.

To seamlessly integrate textbook learning with authentic reading resources and cater for learner diversity, we have developed a school-based reading and writing programme for P.1-3 students. Students in junior levels receive weekly instruction on the programme designed by our highly qualified and experienced NETs. Before starting the programme, NETs conduct reading levelling assessments to determine students’ instructional and independent reading levels. In the lessons, students engage in shared and guided reading, while also being assigned suitable fiction and non-fiction books online for home reading. The programme enhances students’ reading, writing and phonological awareness skills.

At our school, we believe that learning thrives when subjects connect. Our STREAMaker Projects bridge English and Science, empowering students to explore scientific concepts while strengthening their language skills. Through hands-on experiments, students develop scientific inquiry skills and articulate their findings through reports, presentations and creative writing. This integrated approach fosters critical thinking, literacy and a deeper understanding of real-world phenomena, ensuring that students excel both in the lab and in language.
