 Our Holistic Assessments

As each student learns differently , our schools subscribe to the holistic assessment of each child to build the desire to learn.  Our teachers carefully serve and monitor the academic, social and emotional development of our students.  

Active avenues our teachers use for assessment of student progress include:

Continuous monitoring – Teachers observe class participation closely and take note of areas where a child has excelled in or needs help in.

Informal interactions –  This may include student-teacher corridor conversations, or impromptu activities like a simple game of table tennis.

Parent participation – Teachers are constantly in touch with our parents to ensure that their child is also learning and developing well outside the school.

Other more formal assessments include:

Score tracking – Teachers input the scores of unit tests, classwork, homework, and assessments, which computes the student’s final grades for the semester.

Report Files – Each student has a file with comments from core subject teachers.

Semestral Assessments – Upper Primary students will sit for these exams at the end of each Semester. Less emphasis is placed on tests for lower Primary students.

International bench-marking – In order to benchmark our school against global performances, our students will sit for relevant international examinations. 

Academic Support Program

For students who are still working towards the expectations of the subject, we have has an Academic Support Program, where the subject teacher will give individual support and attention to the student outside of curriculum time. This allows them to further enjoy personalized attention from our teachers. 

In particular,  our non-native English speakers have benefitted from the carefully designed program for students of different abilities in language studies.

Parents and Schools as Partners

Parents will always remain the main influence in a child’s learning experience and education. In our school, we encourage parents to provide feedback to us on our learner’s experiences and emotions in their learning journeys at home. We then work with parents to enhance and reinforce their learning to ensure our children are always having fun learning both in school and at home.

Sometimes, if the situation requires so, we work with parents and third party professionals in interventions that will help children who face challenges.

We always encourage more parents to step forward and lend their expertise to school programs and activities.

The IDP is a project based learning activity which provides an opportunity for our students to learn outside of their subjects, take responsibility for their learning and collaborate with others to achieve a common goal. Each year, groups will be given an engaging question or problem that they will have to investigate and respond to. These questions will be focused on the UNSDGs. The project is challenging. Students will learn to persevere and their analytical skills will be tested.

They will be assessed on the following;

• Ideas, planning skills and organization
• Self-discipline and sense of responsibility
• Cooperation/Collaboration within the group
• Communication within the group
• Application of Knowledge
