Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed in alignment with the principles of the National Education Policy (NEP) and the National Curriculum Framework (NCF), focusing on holistic development, experiential learning, and age-appropriate competencies. It encourages critical thinking, creativity, and values-based education, ensuring learners are prepared for real-life challenges while staying rooted in their cultural context.

Enriching Primary Years (Grades 3 to 5)

At Queens’ College, we believe that the Primary Years (Grades 3 to 5) are a transformative time — where children evolve from curious observers to independent thinkers and confident explorers. We focus on fostering critical thinking, creativity, and emotional intelligence.
In these years, we strike a balance between academic rigor and emotional warmth. Children are encouraged to ask questions, engage with the world around them through stories, experiments, and group discussions, and express themselves creatively through performing arts. These activities, alongside sports, help them develop teamwork, resilience, and leadership.
While the foundations of literacy and numeracy become stronger, we also cultivate skills like reasoning, empathy, and confidence. Whether it’s solving a math puzzle, reading a powerful story, planting a sapling, or participating in a team project, our students are continually learning by doing and discovering the joy of learning.
At Queens’ College, we believe that these years are not just about preparing children for the next grade — they are about shaping the values, skills, and dreams that will guide them throughout their lives. We don’t just educate minds; we nurture young hearts to lead, learn, and live with purpose.

Our Tiny Tots embark on a foundational journey during their early years in Nursery, Lower Kindergarten, and Upper Kindergarten & Grade 1 & 2. We focus on creating a nurturing environment where experiential learning fosters core values, essential habits, and a basic understanding of their world. Our daily activities are designed to cater to various learning styles—Auditory, Visual, and Kinesthetic—through playful and engaging methods:

  • Listening Skills: Activities such as storytelling, “Name the Noise,” and interactive treasure hunts develop attentive listening and comprehension.
  • Speech Skills: We encourage expression through “Show & Tell,” imitation games, and singing to enhance verbal communication.
  • Language Knowledge: Early literacy is supported with alphabet recognition, articulation exercises, and creative games like Pictionary.
  • Self-Sufficiency: Daily routines include self-care practices such as having lunch independently, colouring, and personal hygiene to promote self-reliance.
  • Social Skills: Structured activities focus on discipline, making friends, and sharing to build social awareness and cooperative behaviour.
  • Motor Skills: Through dance, building with Lego, and drawing shapes, children develop fine and gross motor skills.
  • Team Play: Engaging in drama, outdoor games, and puzzles encourages teamwork and collaborative problem-solving.
