Preamble
The Secondary School curriculum aims to provide a comprehensive and cohesive learning experience that caters to the needs of all students. It promotes the development of confident, responsible, reflective, innovative, and engaged individuals who embody the attributes of the IB Learner Profile.
Our curriculum offers inspiring and relevant content, ensuring students acquire a wide range of subject knowledge and skills appropriate to their stage of development. Recognizing the importance of language background, we prioritize support for students whose first language is not English, ensuring their access to all subjects taught in English. It is truly inspiring to witness how seamlessly and rapidly these students integrate into the mainstream and unleash their academic potential.
Clear and meaningful educational standards form the foundation for accurately measuring progress, achievement, and international benchmarking. Assessment is an integral part of our curriculum, serving various purposes, such as providing feedback to support learning (assessment for learning) and determining a student's level of performance (summative assessment).
The quality of pedagogy plays a crucial role in our students' growth. To uphold and enhance pedagogical excellence, ongoing professional development is a vital and continuous aspect of an ARIS teacher's life. We actively engage in self-directed learning and collaborate with external providers like the International Baccalaureate Organization to ensure our teaching practices remain at the forefront.
By embracing these principles, we strive to deliver a curriculum that empowers students, fosters their holistic development, and equips them with the skills and knowledge necessary for their future success.
