Junior School · Grade 7–9

Exploring Interests, Discovering Potential

A broad curriculum, career awareness and talent development that prepare learners for Senior School pathways.

Grade 7 – Grade 9 · Approx. 12 – 14 years

Junior School

Junior School is a time of exploration. Learners study a broad range of learning areas — including Integrated Science, Pre-Technical Studies, Creative Arts & Sports and Agriculture & Nutrition — while discovering their strengths and interests.

Grade 9 is a key transition point: learners and parents are guided through Senior School pathway selection based on interests, abilities and assessment records.

Our Approach

Junior School learners take greater ownership of their learning through projects, investigations and presentations. Teachers mentor learners as they discover interests that will shape their Senior School pathway.

Highlights

  • Nine core learning areas under the rationalised CBE curriculum
  • Hands-on Integrated Science and Pre-Technical Studies
  • Digital literacy and responsible technology use
  • Career awareness and pathway guidance
  • Leadership opportunities, clubs and competitive sport

Grade 9 Transition

Preparing for Senior School Pathways

Grade 9 is the stage at which learners transition toward Senior School pathway selection. The Ministry of Education describes three pathways — STEM, Social Sciences, and Arts & Sports Science. Career guidance, assessment records and family conversations help each learner choose wisely.
