Primary School — ages 6 to 10

Primary school at SSELC is the foundation: children consolidate the English they began in preschool, build their first written work in three languages, and start the Pearson curriculum — a UK-derived international system recognised by top universities worldwide.

Our certified teachers run small, attentive classes where every child is known by name. Project-based science work, daily reading, structured mathematics, and weekly creative time form the rhythm of a SSELC primary year.

What primary years look like

Pearson curriculum

A UK-derived primary programme aligned with international standards — recognised globally.
