Welcome
Message by Elementary Coordinator
Welcome to the Sunway International Schools and the Ontario Elementary Program which includes students in Kindergarten through Grade 5.
At SIS Elementary, we use Canada's Ontario Curriculum as our framework to support high-quality education. Along with a challenging academic program in which students develop their literacy, numeracy and inquiry skills, a focus on student well-being and the development of learning skills helps prepare our SIS students for future academic and personal success. The curriculum we follow is inclusive, reflecting diverse perspectives and fostering respect for different cultures. It offers clear and consistent guidelines for assessment and evaluation, which ensures fair and consistent measurement of student progress and allows students to be engaged and reflect on their own learning.
Using the Canadian (Ontario) Curriculum as our framework, literacy, numeracy, global competencies, 21st-century skills and character education are taught through a student-centred framework. SIS balances academic rigour with a strong emphasis on literacy, numeracy, and learning skills which serve as a foundation for all other academic achievements and lifelong success.
Primary School (Grades 1-5)
Our Primary School focuses on differentiated student-centric learning with resources that are carefully selected according to their needs. We develop students’ literacy, numeracy, global competencies and 21st-century skills while honing in on learning skills and work habits. Grades are 100% continuous assessment.
Core Elements
At the primary level, the Ontario curriculum emphasises literacy, numeracy, global competencies, and 21st-century skills through a student-centred framework. A range of continuous assessment approaches is used to inform teaching practices and enhance student learning. Literacy and numeracy skills are fundamental to student success and form the foundation of the primary school curriculum.
Resources are carefully selected to reflect classroom diversity and respond to student dynamics. Social Studies, Science, the Arts, and Character Education are integrated to provide relevant and authentic learning opportunities. Multimodal learning activities and inclusive resources cater to students with diverse backgrounds, abilities, interests, and learning styles. Through these approaches, we aim to foster student engagement and instil a lifelong love for learning.
