The Primary School Section of DMA follows an International Primary Curriculum (IPC). This curriculum is designed with a child-centric approach and is user-friendly for teachers – it is commonly adopted by leading primary schools globally. This curriculum empowers your child to take charge of their learning journey through engaging in activities such as planning, researching, recording, and interacting with teachers and fellow students.
The Emphasis of the DMA International Curriculum
The DMA curriculum is designed to foster children’s learning through a structure that is based on specific learning objectives. These objectives encompass subject goals, personal learning goals, and international learning goals.
Under the subject goals, your child will cultivate a profound understanding of subjects such as Mathematics, Language Arts, Science, ICT & Computing, Technology, History, Geography, Music, Physical Education, Art, and Society. The personal learning goals of the DMA curriculum will equip your child with essential 21st-century skills, including communication, resilience, adaptability, thoughtfulness, cooperation, respect, and morality.
Regarding the international learning goals of the DMA curriculum, it will aid your child in developing a sense of “international mindedness,” a crucial attribute for becoming a global citizen capable of succeeding anywhere in the world.
By enrolling your child in our Primary School, he or she will achieve all the learning objectives of the DMA International Curriculum on a unit-by-unit basis.
