Primary School
Ages 6 - 11
The curriculum in the Primary School at ISZL is based upon the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP). In the PYP the knowledge and skills of traditional disciplines or subjects find links through trans-disciplinary units of learning that identify "big ideas" or concepts that link across subjects.
