Empowering students through a broad, engaging, and personalised curriculum.
Curriculum Overview
The combination of breadth and depth of study is at the heart of the School’s philosophy, ensuring that students experience the full breadth of the curriculum in and out of the classroom. Our personalised learning approach tailors our curriculum to suit the individual needs, preferences, and aspirations of our children. Music, PE, Swimming and Languages are taught by specialist subject teachers.
The emphasis in Primary remains on encouraging students to explore beyond the formal curriculum and continue to develop a true love of learning. Such an approach ensures that by the end of our primary school all of our students will be well prepared both academically and socially for the excitement and new challenges of senior school.

Activities
We focus on an activity-based teaching approach to make learning in subjects like mathematics, science, and English both engaging and effective. In mathematics, students use hands-on tools like blocks, counters, and interactive games to explore concepts such as addition, subtraction, and multiplication, helping them visualize and internalize abstract ideas. Science lessons involve experiments and real-world observations, allowing students to investigate phenomena and develop critical thinking skills through inquiry-based activities. For English, we incorporate storytelling, role-playing, and phonics games to enhance language skills, encouraging students to express themselves confidently and creatively.
This interactive, student-centered approach not only fosters a deeper understanding of academic content but also allow us to cultivate social and emotional development in the childhood. Our social and emotional learning is embedded into whole-school school culture, with activities like assemblies, team-building exercises, and anti-bullying initiatives.
Teamwork and Communication
We encourage collaboration through group projects, peer learning, and active participation, empowering students to develop strong communication, leadership, and teamwork abilities. We believe that teamwork and collaboration are key to thrive in modern society.
Self-Awareness
Cultivating self-awareness helps students build confidence, manage challenges, and develop positive relationships with others. At FSB, we empower students to identify their strengths and areas for growth, improving decision-making and emotional regulation.
Critical Thinking
By fostering a growth mindset and encouraging curiosity, we empower our students to become confident thinkers. We believe that critical thinking is the cornerstone of academic success and lifelong learning. Our approach encourages students to ask questions, analyze information, and solve problems with creativity and logic.
Emotional Development
At FSB, we provide a nurturing environment where students learn to understand, express, and regulate their emotions. Through personalized support and interactive learning experiences, we empower students to build resilience, foster positive relationships, and navigate life's challenges with confidence.
Creativity
By encouraging innovative thinking, we empower our students to explore new ideas and express themselves in unique ways. Through hands-on projects, collaboration, and problem-solving, we nurture creativity across all subjects, preparing our students for a future where their imagination can lead the way.
Communication and Sharing
With a variety of nationalities represented, open dialogue fosters understanding, respect, and inclusion. We encourage collaboration and cultural exchange to create a welcoming environment where every student feels valued and connected in a truly international community.
