Primary School
Individual Learning. Independent Thinking. Strong Foundations.
In a fast-changing world, independent learning, creativity and the ability to work collaboratively are essential skills for children to thrive. At Swiss School in Singapore, we therefore place great emphasis on helping students become confident, motivated and independent learners from an early age.
Our teachers guide children to gradually take responsibility for their own learning and work, always in an age-appropriate way. We use differentiated, cooperative and student-centred learning approaches, recognising that every child has different strengths, interests, needs and abilities. We see these differences as an enrichment of our learning community.
Individualised Learning from Kindergarten to P6
Throughout the Primary Section, from Kindergarten through Primary 6 (P6), we accompany each child on their individual learning journey. Our teaching approach provides children with the support and challenge they need to develop their skills and reach their individual potential — while maintaining their joy and curiosity for learning.
From Primary 1 onwards, students learn in mixed-age double classes, creating a learning environment where children can learn from and support one another. This individualised approach allows students to progress at their own pace while developing important social skills, independence and confidence.
Preparing Children for Their Future
By the end of P6, our students have developed not only a strong academic foundation, but also the independence, confidence and positive learning experiences they need for their next educational step.
Our Primary School prepares children to continue their education successfully at German-speaking schools in Switzerland or at international schools, giving them the skills and confidence to adapt to new learning environments and embrace future opportunities.
