Cambridge Lower Secondary Curriculum Programme
Cambridge Lower Secondary
Thakur School of Global Education (TSGE) takes pride in integrating the Cambridge Lower Secondary Programme (CLS) and the International General Certificate of Secondary Examination (IGCSE) to provide a seamless educational journey for learners aged 11 to 14 years. The Cambridge Lower Secondary Curriculum, offered at TSGE, is designed to achieve the following objectives:
- Bridging Primary and Secondary Education: The curriculum acts as a bridge between the Cambridge primary and secondary checkpoints, ensuring a smooth transition for learners. It establishes continuity and progression in learning, building upon the foundations laid during the primary years.
- Comprehensive Learning Objectives: The curriculum encompasses clear learning objectives across all subjects, aiming to develop proficiency and competence in various disciplines. It provides a broad and balanced framework that can be tailored to suit the context, culture, and ethos of TSGE.
- Wide Subject Exposure: The Cambridge Lower Secondary Programme introduces learners to a wide range of subject areas, allowing them to explore different disciplines. By the end of the programme, learners become familiar with their core areas of study, setting the stage for future academic pursuits.
- Flexibility in Subject Combinations: TSGE offers flexibility in subject combinations, especially in areas like Mathematics and Science. This enables learners to align their learning preferences and interests, paving the way for focused study as they progress towards the IGCSE examinations in Grade X.
The Cambridge Lower Secondary Curriculum at TSGE offers learners an educational pathway enriched with global perspectives. This world-class curriculum is delivered through excellent teacher support and integrative assessments.
Each subject within the curriculum follows a well-defined framework that provides a structured teaching format. Whether it's English, Mathematics, or Science, learners benefit from a cohesive and comprehensive approach to learning. As learners advance through Middle School, their progress is assessed through a combination of coursework and examinations, ensuring a seamless transition to the Cambridge IGCSE programme in Grades IX and X.
The transition from Primary to Middle School marks a crucial phase in learners‘ development as they explore their strengths and weaknesses. This period is characterised by increased independence, higher proficiency expectations, and greater accountability. Accordingly, the teaching and learning approach shifts from teacher-centred classes to a more learner-driven approach. Instructors at Thakur School become facilitators, guiding learners to strengthen their skills, explore their interests, and enhance their abilities.
At Thakur School of Global Education, we are committed to providing an empowering learning environment that supports learners growth and prepares them for future challenges. The integration of the Cambridge Lower Secondary Curriculum equips learners with the necessary skills, knowledge, and confidence to succeed academically and become lifelong learners. Through a learner-centred approach and a focus on individual development, Thakur School of Global Education fosters a culture of academic excellence and personal growth
