Strengthening communication through language
Learners develop reading fluency and comprehension while building confidence in transcription and spontaneous writing with clarity and legibility.
Building confidence with numbers
Students build a secure understanding of number and progressively build strategies for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, while applying their learning to solve mathematical problems.
Understanding people, places and communities
Pupils explore the social, cultural and geographical world around them, developing knowledge, understanding and a broader perspective through learning in English.
Discovering the natural world
Students deepen their understanding of the natural environment and the processes of living and non-living things through enquiry-based learning in English.Â
Growing confidence in English
Learners strenghten listening, speaking and comprehension skills through a dedicated English programme designed to build confidence and fluency in the language.
Expressing creativity through music

I attend an English club and, when I arrive at school, I really enjoy putting my things down and waiting for my friends.
Maria, Student
When they told us we could come and see the clubs before deciding whether to sign up, I came with my mum and dad and we looked at lots of different options, but this was the one that caught my attention the most. My parents also felt that English would be a great choice to help me strengthen my skills and do well. I invite you to discover the experience at Colegio Pedro de Valdivia Agustinas.
