5 Ways the International Primary Curriculum benefits your child

3. The IPC improves children’s learning

Each IPC unit is designed around one core purpose: improving children’s learning. The IPC’s world class writers have created a range of cross-curricular units based on globally relevant themes that excite children and teachers alike. They are designed to nurture children’s personal qualities and develop international mindedness, and at the heart of these units are the IPC Learning Goals.

One of the main reasons that IPC has become one of the most widely used Primary curriculums in the world is its three-tiered approach that focuses upon 3 types of learning goals:

  • Subject (Academic) Learning Goals
  • Personal Learning Goals
  • International Learning Goals

4. It is rigorous yet flexible

With its own Assessment for Learning Programme, the IPC provides immediate support for teachers and learners through its comprehensive design and rigor, whilst being flexible enough for each school to adapt the planning and build on their own strengths.

5. It prepares children for Secondary education

There is a distinct learning process with every IPC unit, providing a structured approach to make sure that children’s learning experiences are as stimulating and rigorous as possible.

With the IPC children can develop the academic knowledge, skills and understanding to prepare them for Secondary school and beyond whilst also developing the personal qualities and characteristics to help them flourish in our increasingly connected and dynamic world. In short, the IPC can unlock student’s imagination and transform their education.
