Welcome Parents!
What Makes us Unique?
Just to clarify, we are definitely not like any other Educational Setting therefore we have decided to call ourselves Gymnasium@Primrose Hill International School. The story behind the name is that we would like Parents to understand that we are still prioritising the development of the children and that we are providing tailored services for our learners. It has always been important for us to ensure that every child's learning development is supported throughout their journey with us at Primrose Hill!
Our Secondary Education will still be incorporating the Active Learning Teaching method alongside our Integrated Cambridge Curriculum to keep inline with the uniqueness of Primrose Hill!
We pride ourselves on being a community education setting where our small numbers ensure every child being supported through their education. Using Active Learning we are sure that your child will enjoy their journey with us at Primrose Hill!
Why should your child study at Primrose Hill?
We are proud to announce that Primrose Hill Active Learning will be the first Education Centre where our Secondary Programme will be running alongside our brand new Forest Study Curriculum which will allow our children to apply what they have learnt in a real Rainforest Environment!
Primrose Hill has continuously looked to improve upon our methods throughout these past years. In light of recent events, it appears that the best course of action would be, to continue providing your children with educational materials and live lessons on our Online Platforms, to help ensure your child can have access to education anywhere in the world. Therefore, we will be using a blended learning approach as of Sept 2020 to ensure your child's learning will not be disrupted in the future.
We are offering a completely unique experience where our children will continue to use Active Learning along with our Cambridge Curriculum as your child will be working to complete their Cambridge IGCSE's at the end of the year.
We will be offering 5 Core Subjects along with 6 Additional Subjects. Your child can have access to the 5 Core Subjects plus 1 Additional Subject which are included in the Registration fee. Any extra Additional Subjects taken up will be at an extra cost.
