Read with understanding, express ideas clearly and communicate with confidence.
Our curriculum helps children build essential knowledge while learning how to question, explore, connect ideas and use what they know.
A good curriculum gives children knowledge. A great learning experience helps them understand it.
At SIGMA, academic learning is built around clear concepts, strong foundations and age-appropriate progression.
Lessons encourage children to ask questions, discuss ideas, investigate problems and apply their learning in meaningful ways.
Each subject develops important knowledge while also building different ways of thinking.
Read with understanding, express ideas clearly and communicate with confidence.
Develop number sense, logical thinking, reasoning and problem-solving.

Explore imagination, expression, design, music, art and performance.
Real problems often need more than one kind of knowledge.
Wherever appropriate, learning at SIGMA helps children make connections between subjects.
A project may combine mathematics with science, language with history or technology with creativity.
These connections help children understand why they are learning something, not only what they need to remember.
Concepts become easier to understand when children can explore, discuss, test and use them.
Test ideas and discover what happens through hands-on exploration.
Listen to different ideas, communicate clearly and solve problems together.
Turn understanding into projects, ideas, presentations and original work.
Start with curiosity, questions and what children already know.
Read, observe, discuss, investigate and experiment.
Organise ideas and develop clear, accurate concepts.
Use learning in exercises, projects and new situations.
Look at progress, feedback and what can be improved.
A score tells us something. It does not tell us everything.
Children need opportunities to demonstrate what they understand in different ways.

Understanding begins when a child stops asking “Will this be in the test?” and starts asking “Why does this happen?”
