Primary (5-11)

Building Strong Foundations

Primary is where curiosity takes flight. Across Lower, Middle, and Upper Primary, children grow in independence, build strong academic skills, and develop confidence as learners and friends.

A World Prepared for Growing Minds

Our Primary classrooms are lively spaces designed to encourage independence and collaboration.

In mixed-age groups, younger children are inspired by older peers, while older children practise leadership and empathy.

The environment is carefully prepared to support both focus and freedom, balancing academic learning with joyful exploration.

Learning extends outdoors into gardens and open spaces, where children explore science, play team games, and connect with nature

What Children Learn in Primary

The Primary years provide a broad and balanced curriculum that nurtures the whole child:

  • Core Academics – building strong foundations in mathematics, literacy, and the sciences through engaging, hands-on learning.
  • Languages – developing fluency in English while also learning Spanish, Catalan, and German in a natural, immersive way.

  • Arts & Music – exploring creativity through painting, crafts, theatre, singing, and instruments.

  • Physical Education & Outdoor Learning – daily movement and sports build fitness, balance, and teamwork.

  • Social & Emotional Learning – children develop resilience, empathy, and collaboration. With no homework in Primary, balance with family and personal time is prioritised.

Teachers & Community

Each Primary class is guided by a Montessori teacher and a British-trained teacher, supported by subject specialists in areas such as music, languages, and sport. This team approach ensures every child receives both individual attention and rich, varied learning experiences.

The Primary years are also a time of deep friendships and community spirit. Children learn to respect one another, work together, and take increasing responsibility for their own learning — all in a warm, caring atmosphere.

Growing with Confidence

Primary is where children grow with curiosity, creativity, and confidence, ready to take on the challenges of Secondary.
