The curriculum at CEMSS is a right mix of academics, creativity and character building. This brings out the best in our students. Community-based activities are included, to help develop values, such as respect, empathy and discipline.
The Crescent curriculum is geared to our students becoming whole people and independent learners, who will be self-motivated to seek knowledge. Knowledge at Crescent is not merely about natural sciences, social sciences and the arts. True knowledge is experiential and transformational.
CEMSS emphasizes a trans-disciplinary education through an inquiry- based approach to learning. The curriculum encourages children to ask question, plan investigations, explore various outcomes and reach credible and logical conclusions with teachers as facilitators. We provide a curriculum that is engaging, exciting, challenging and relevant to children. Using higher order thinking skills help children analyse, synthesize and understand what they learn. while enhancing their ability to transfer competencies and skills.
The curriculum facilitates
- Language Development
Concentrating on the basics of oral communication- speaking and listening, reading and comprehending simple texts and encouraging writing skills, this area of learning helps children stay ahead of the curve by giving them the edge to start writing expressively and reading voraciously.
- Numeracy
The area helps children develop their skills in logical operations. We help them build a strong mathematical foundation though practical tasks, stories, songs, games and imaginative plays. We also help children understand how mathematics can be applied in real life.
- Science and Social Studies
Children are inquisitive by birth. Every day they are exposed to a whole range of sights and sounds which stimulates their curiosity. We help them develop crucial knowledge, skills and understanding to make sense of the world around them and learn from life itself.
- Personal, Social and Physical Education
To become true leaders, children learn to strive for success through all round development of their personal, social, emotional and physical selves. This provides them with an excellent opportunity to succeed in all areas of learning and mature into emotionally and socially balanced members of society.
- Creative Arts
Exploring and practising both visual and performing arts helps children experience a unique integration of the body and mind. We therefore encourage children to indulge in and appreciate different forms of creative expressions like art, music, dance and role play.
