Curriculum for Primary Level
(Level 1 to 3)
At the primary level, we cultivate a profound mastery of the English language, guiding students beyond surface-level learning.
Our curriculum delves into not only reading and writing but also the deeper mechanics of language.
Students are encouraged to analyze language choices, understanding how texts create mood and tone through literary techniques.
With a focus on phonics and eloquent expression, we empower students to become confident, articulate speakers from an early age.​​
Level Guide
BrightThinkers Academy structures lessons from Level 1 to 5 by combining two age groups per level, allowing students to learn at a faster pace.
This approach challenges them appropriately, fostering growth and confidence as they progress through more complex tasks.
