HEBRON SCHOOL

Junior School

  In the Junior School we follow the English National Curriculum, but with some modifications and additions, taking into account our location and international profile. In this overview, it is not possible to state all that is covered in each year in each subject, but we have tried to give just a sample of the kind of work that goes on in each year group, to give an idea of the different levels.
  Religious Studies
  As a Christian school, RS is an important subject, and the assemblies each day also give opportunities to explore different areas. The core of the curriculum is based on Christianity, but we also have opportunities to find out about other faiths, some of which are represented in the school. Bible stories are an ongoing feature of the curriculum.
