Saints Christian School has officially embarked on a new academic journey as learners received their new textbooks and began the term under the IEB-aligned curriculum. This marks a significant milestone in the school’s growth and commitment to academic excellence.

A Shift Toward Excellence

The move to an IEB-aligned curriculum is more than just a change in textbooks, it’s a shift toward deeper learning, critical thinking, and a future-focused academic path. Learners and educators alike are energised and embracing the challenge with dedication and enthusiasm. This curriculum promises to broaden learners’ horizons and better prepare them for further studies and life beyond school.

Learners Taking the Lead

From the start of term, the atmosphere in classrooms has been filled with excitement and purpose. Learners are engaging with new material, asking thoughtful questions, and showing a strong sense of ownership over their learning journeys. “This is the beginning of something great,” said one educator. “We’re not just working through textbooks, we’re building thinkers and leaders.”

A Community Committed to Growth

At Saints Christian School, the values of Truth, Unity, and Excellence are not just words, they are lived out daily. The introduction of this new academic structure is a reflection of the school’s vision to nurture confident, competent, and compassionate learners in a changing world.
