BLUE RIDGE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL
Academic Excellence
At Blue Ridge International School, we believe that an effective education doesn’t just come from memorizing or lecturing. Active participation in the learning process entails analyzing, discussing and collaborating - in order to comprehend and retain. All of our subjects are designed to encourage deep mental processing and pupil engagement with class materials.
This stage caters for children from 1 - 2 years. It is home away from home. Their class buzzes with so much love and joy complimented with lots of age appropriate toys and stuff to keep them busy through the day.
This stage is divided in 3 levels: Pre-nursery (2 yrs - 3yrs) , Nursery (3yrs - 4yrs) and Reception (4yrs - 5yrs). Children in this stage are explorers who learn through experimentation and play in a rich environment where they can stretch their ideas and talents to the fullest while building self-confidence.
Comprises of the grade 1 and 2 classes. Having had the right foundation from the Early Years Foundation stage, children have become more active learners building on learning they have previously acquired. They are now well equipped and prepared for the rich and rigorous work of grade school.
Pupils at this stage are in the grade 3 - 6 classes. They have become more confident, independent and analytic learners. They are able to take on topical researches and contribute greatly to their own learning.
Timeless Teaching in a Changing World
Our school's academic program is an intellectually rigorous and challenging one. Pupils are introduced early to various skills and concepts according to their ages and needs which serves as a bedrock upon which learning is anchored.
Typically we use a mix of the UK National and Nigerian curricula to achieve our set goals.
We operate on a low teacher to pupil ratio for ease of communication and understanding thus making learning easy and interesting.
We ensure that the classroom learning goes beyond making excellent grades in exams and assessments to being able to apply skills and concepts in seemingly familiar but different or new situations that pupils may be confronted with.
Our academics is built towards giving our pupils a defined purpose and ability to excel now and in later life.
