Primary

CIS Primary provides an engaging, internationally focused education for children aged 6 to 11 (Years 2–6), built on the Cambridge Primary curriculum. With English as the main language of instruction, we combine strong academic foundations with opportunities for creativity, collaboration, critical thinking and real-world learning. 

Our approach encourages students to be curious, ask questions, explore ideas and take increasing ownership of their learning. Alongside academic development, we focus on communication, confidence, wellbeing, and the life skills students need to thrive in a changing world.

Primary Curriculum Overview

The Cambridge Primary curriculum provides a clear framework for learning from Years 2-6, with carefully sequenced content and skills that build progressively each year.

Our curriculum covers English, Mathematics, Science, Computing, Humanities, Art, Music, Physical Education, PSHE and Modern Foreign Languages (German and Spanish). Learning is designed to develop secure subject knowledge while preparing students for the increasing academic demands of Secondary School.

Across the Primary years, students build the knowledge, understanding and skills needed to become successful, independent learners and make a confident transition to the next stage of their education.

With small class sizes, experienced international teachers, and a personalised approach to each child, CIS Primary provides a supportive and inclusive environment where every student is encouraged to grow in confidence and independence. 

Our diverse, multicultural community fosters positive relationships, respect, curiosity, and a strong sense of belonging. 

Our Primary School is located near Horský park and equipped with modern facilities. We offer a welcoming environment where children can thrive and gain the confidence to take their next steps into Secondary School.

KS1 is a time of discovery, growing confidence and exciting new challenges.  

In Years 2 and 3, children are encouraged to be curious, creative and increasingly independent, while developing a real love of learning. With four classes in each year group, students enjoy a strong sense of community and plenty of opportunities to learn, play, and collaborate. Each class is supported by a class teacher and assistant teacher, providing a caring environment and individual support.  

Through Read, Write, Inc. phonics and a broad, engaging curriculum, children build strong foundations in reading, writing and wider learning while developing socially and emotionally.
