Primary & Secondary Section

Overview

The Primary Section comprises of Grades 1 – 5 with segregated classes for male & female students in most AES campuses. Grades are divided into smaller sections to ensure the instructors’ attention for each individual child.

The secondary section comprises of Grades 6 – 8; the second term in Grade 8 is termed “Pre-9th”. In Pre-9th, students opt for O’Levels or Matriculation and are prepared accordingly for a term before entering the definitive academic year.

Learning in Action

Learning at AES is a conscious departure from generic classroom learning. The students have ready access to on-campus laboratories, a kitchen garden, libraries and multi-purpose halls equipped with multimedia facilities to help them dig deeper into the concepts they learn in the classrooms.

Parental Involvement

Through traditional Parent-Teacher Conferences, AES instructors involve parents fully in the education of the child, but we do not believe a PTC covers it all. Parents are also encouraged to meet our student counselors, instructors and our subject facilitators to help them identify their child’s strengths & weaknesses and plan their child’s study routine at home accordingly.

Similarly, parents are encouraged to attend events at the school that are open to public to help create a relationship of trust and understanding between the child, the instructors and the parents.
