In Primary School at NAIS Hong Kong, we focus on rigorous academic development in English and maths, and we take a thematic approach to learning a variety of other subjects. This combination helps each child build their core skills as well as a range of knowledge in connection with the world.
Our specialist teachers teach art, music, drama, physical education (PE), Mandarin, and more to our Primary students. We also offer other languages: French from Year 5 onwards and Spanish from Year 6 onwards, as students get ready to enter Secondary School.
Our expert teachers take a personalised approach to learning at NAIS Hong Kong. Throughout Primary School, they tailor the instruction to the interests, needs, goals, and aspirations of each child. With a child-centred approach, they can encourage each to be curious, ask questions, explore, and begin to do research to build their understanding. This helps make the class interactive, where every child participates and is engaged.
Our teachers also help each child build a positive mindset in and beyond the classroom, boosting their confidence and encouraging their overall academic success.
As part of a holistic approach to each child’s education, we help them become a well-rounded and responsible citizen, who wants to help our communities and make our world better. We have a PSCHE unit at the start of each year that focuses on the emotional wellbeing of our students. We also offer a pastoral care and many learning experiences that help each child build their own sense of purpose.
Used by over 30,000 international schools in the UK and overseas, the English National Curriculum brings reassurance to parents and stability to students – important factors when moving between countries.
Our Primary School teachers take the best aspects of the rigorous English National Curriculum and adapt it to our international context in Hong Kong, shaping learning experiences that give our students the highest quality of education.
The English National Curriculum has stages of advancement, known as the ‘Key Stages’. Primary school spans Key Stage 1 (Years 1 and 2, from ages 5 to 7) and Key Stage 2 (Years 3 to 6, from ages 7 to 11). Students study English, Mandarin, mathematics, science, music, history, geography, STEAM subjects, and more.
Our international curricula allow our students to learn at the best standards in the world. What’s more, we enrich the curricula with opportunities to uncover unique interests, so every child can follow their passion and create their path to their top-pick university.
