UPPER ELEMENTARY
(4th - 6th Grade)
At this stage Upper Elementary students develop self-management and continue to define their character.
Our approach focuses on the development of cognitive and emotional skills that support them in their academic process. They develop the ability to self-manage and reflect, key to ensure adequate progress. From the different areas, personal growth is encouraged, offering opportunities for continuous improvement.
Authentic experiences
A day at Upper Elementary is filled with activities designed to stimulate creativity, curiosity and meaningful learning. Our educational approach balances individual and group work, strengthening both students' self-awareness and their ability to collaborate with others. Students enjoy authentic educational experiences that inspire them to explore new ways of learning and apply their knowledge in real-world contexts, preparing them to be engaged citizens and agents of change.
Global competence
The development of global competence is a central element in the formation of leaders who are aware of the world around them. To achieve this, we implement key methodologies such as Project-Based Learning (PBL), Service Learning (SL) and Connection-Based Learning (CBL) that allow students to make connections that transcend the classroom, working together with peers from other parts of the world. Through these experiences, they develop critical thinking, problem-solving skills, global awareness and strong values.
Learning process
Towards the end of 5th grade they take the Cambridge Checkpoint exams in English, Maths and Science. These mark the end of the "Primary" stage in the Cambridge route and provide detailed information about where they are in their learning process.
