Students learning at Sigma Horizon School
Curriculum

Strong foundations. Deeper understanding.

Our curriculum helps children build essential knowledge while learning how to question, explore, connect ideas and use what they know.

How Children Learn
Our Curriculum

Learn the subject. Understand the idea.

A good curriculum gives children knowledge. A great learning experience helps them understand it.

At SIGMA, academic learning is built around clear concepts, strong foundations and age-appropriate progression.

Lessons encourage children to ask questions, discuss ideas, investigate problems and apply their learning in meaningful ways.

Connected Learning

The world does not separate itself into subjects.

Real problems often need more than one kind of knowledge.

Wherever appropriate, learning at SIGMA helps children make connections between subjects.

A project may combine mathematics with science, language with history or technology with creativity.

These connections help children understand why they are learning something, not only what they need to remember.

Children need opportunities to demonstrate what they understand in different ways.

Classroom observation and participation

02

Written work and academic assessments

03

Projects, activities and practical learning

04

Feedback, reflection and improvement
