 Primary and Intermediate Level
METHODS OF TEACHING

Visualization - Bring dull academic concepts to life with visual and practical
learning experiences, helping your students to understand how their
schooling applies in the real-world.

Cooperative Learning - Encourage students of mixed abilities to work
together by promoting small group or whole class activities.

Inquiry-based instruction - Pose thought-provoking questions which inspire
your students to think for themselves and become more independent
learners.

Differentiation - Differentiate your teaching by allocating tasks based on
students’ abilities, to ensure no one gets left behind.

Game-Based Learning - Game based learning (GBL) is a type of game play
that has defined learning outcomes. Generally, game-based learning is
designed to balance subject matter with gameplay and the ability of the
player to retain and apply said subject matter to the real world.
CURRICULUM APPROACH
Our school believe that children learn best in an environment where they feel safe
and accepted and where learning is fun.


Behavioral Approach - This is an approach to psychology that focuses on
how one's environment and how external stimuli affect a person's mental
states and development and how these factors specifically "train" a person
for the behaviors they will be exhibiting later on.

Managerial Approach - the principal is the curriculum leader and at the
same time instructional leader who is supposed to be the general manager.
..Curriculum managers look at curriculum changes and innovations as they
administer the resources and restructure the schools.

Systems approach – It is based on the generalization that everything is interrelated and interdependent. A system is composed of related and
dependent element which when in interaction, forms a unitary whole.
A system is simply an assemblage or combination of things or parts forming
a complex whole.

Humanistic Approach - It emphasizes the personal worth of the individual,
the centrality of human values, and the creative, active nature of human
beings. The approach is optimistic and focuses on the noble human
capacity to overcome hardship, pain and despair.
ROLE OF TEACHERS

Resource - One of the top roles a teacher must fill is that of a resource
specialist. There will be many people who will come to the teacher seeking
information. Even if the person is only seeking a source of information, the
teacher is the one who must know how to find what the student is looking
for. Once the teacher has given the information to the student or coworker,
he or she will often have to instruct the student on how to use the
information.

Support - Students are the ones who need support when learning a new skill
or piece of information. A teacher must act as the support person when the
student needs this help. Support can come in many forms such as a coach,
leader and even a counselor. In professional circles, a teacher may even
have to support other teachers leading a particular subject matter.

Mentor - One of the biggest roles a teacher may have is that of a mentor.
Students look up to teachers and may pattern their own behavior and work
ethic to match the instructor. An older teacher can even be a mentor to a
younger teacher who is just starting out in the profession.

Helping hand - A leader in a school is a person who takes on extra tasks
such as leading the PTA meetings and even helping set up a gym for a big
event. Teachers who are active in the school will often have more jobs than
just the one they were hired to perform. Often, the goals of the teacher will
match the direction that the school is taking.

Learner - One last important role a teacher must fill is that of a learner.
Anyone who has been involved in a profession long enough knows that
there is always something new to learn. A learner is a person who is always
growing in life and will never claim that they know it all. A teacher will be
challenged every day with a new task that will help them grow into a better
person.
A teacher is a person who will have to fill many roles. They are people with
educational leadership skills and they must continue to grow and develop
as professionals. Anyone seeking to be a teacher should take advantage
of any chance they get to grow as a person and as a teacher.
 Junior High School
METHODS OF TEACHING
Teachers working with students in the Junior Secondary years will be given the skills
they need through additional professional development, so they can support
young teens through these crucial early high school years.
 The teaching staff of the school are experts in the subjects they teach and
have very high levels of pedagogical knowledge and skill, including expert
knowledge of evidence based teaching strategies.
 Teachers and school leaders take personal and collective responsibility for
improving student learning, working as a team and learning from each
other’s practices.
 In team meetings there is an emphasis on the joint analysis of student work
and on teaching strategies for improving student learning. Teachers
collaboratively plan, deliver and review the effectiveness of lessons.
 School leaders place a very high priority on the ongoing professional
learning of all staff and on the development of a school-wide, self-reflective
culture focused on improving classroom teaching.
 School leaders participate in professional learning activities, learning
alongside teachers, and the school supports teachers to continue formal
study and celebrates professional success.


Differentiation is a priority of the school and a feature of every teacher’s
practice.
Regular data on the achievements, progress, strengths and weaknesses of
individual students are used in all classrooms to make judgements about
individual needs, to identify appropriate starting points for teaching and to
personalize teaching and learning activities.
CURRICULUM APPROACH
Our school follow the K-12 Program. In which we applied and practiced:
ENSURING INTEGRATED AND SEAMLESS LEARNING (SPIRAL PROGRESSION).
Subjects are taught from the simplest concepts to more complicated concepts
through grade levels in spiral progression. As early as elementary, students gain
knowledge in areas such as Biology, Geometry, Earth Science, Chemistry, and
Algebra. This ensures a mastery of knowledge and skills after each level.
Biology, Chemistry, Physics are connected and integrated from Grades 7 to 10.
This same method is used in other Learning Areas like Math. Also, we integrated
teaching the Christian Living and Values Education twice a week.

o Flipped Classroom
CURRICULUM APPROACH
 SENIOR HIGH (GRADES 11-12)
Senior High School is two years of specialized upper secondary education;
students may choose a specialization based on aptitude, interests, and school
capacity. The choice of career track will define the content of the subjects a
student will take in Grades 11 and 12. Each student in Senior High School can
choose among three tracks: Academic; Technical-Vocational-Livelihood; and
Sports and Arts. The Academic track includes three strands: Business,
Accountancy, Management (BAM); Humanities, Education, Social Sciences
(HESS); and Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM).
CORE CURRICULUM SUBJECTS
There are seven Learning Areas under the Core Curriculum: Languages,
Literature, Communication, Mathematics, Philosophy, Natural Sciences, and
Social Sciences.

ROLE OF TEACHERS
The Delegator Style
For subjects that necessitate group work, peer feedback or lab-based learning, a
delegator or group style of tutoring is often adopted. As a delegator, the teacher
may take an observer role to promote collaboration and encourage peer-topeer learning.
Despite becoming increasingly popular, some critics consider the delegation or
group style to be a poor teaching strategy given that it removes the teacher from
a position of authority.
The Facilitator Style
Teachers who adopt a facilitator or activity-based style encourage self-learning
in the classroom through increased peer to teacher learning. Unlike the lecture
style, teachers ask students to question rather than simply have the answer given
to them. In this style, activities are used to promote self-discovery and develop
problem-solving skills, which can often lead to the student developing a much
deeper understanding of the topic.
There are however, downsides to this technique: as the facilitator, teachers must
actively interact with individual pupils, which can be difficult in a large classroom
setting, so the design layout of the room should be deeply considered.
The Demonstrator Style
Like the lecture or authority style of teaching, the demonstrator retains authority
in the classroom. However, instead of relying solely on a verbal lecture, the
demonstrator style combines lectures with other teaching forms, including
multimedia presentations, demonstrations and class activities.
This style is particularly well suited to music, art and physical education subjects,
where demonstrations are required to fully understand a topic. In other areas of
study however, the demonstrator style may not be suitable. Like the authority
style, there is little direct teacher to pupil interaction, so it can be difficult to
accommodate the needs of all students.
The Hybrid Style
Some teachers adopt an integrated teaching style that incorporates their
personality, preferences and interests into their teaching. This strategy is known as
the hybrid style, and is popular in subjects like English, Science and Religious
Studies. Teachers who use the hybrid style are able to tailor their tutoring for
different pupils, incorporating extra-curricular knowledge to develop a deeper
knowledge of a particular topic. However, some critics claim that the hybrid style
can weaken the learning process, as teachers try to be all things to all students.
