Curriculum
In the Primary School(K-6), set subjects are studied in each year level. the younger grades(K-3) have most subjects with their class teacher. Usually, the only subjects they have with other teachers are library, P.E, music, and Japanese. The older grades(4-6) usually have more subjects with other teachers, though they are still the same subjects as before.
In the secondary school, Grade 7's study set subjects, including some new ones that aren't offered in primary school. Grade 8's have the same subjects but can pick a language from either Japanese or French. Grade 9 and 10's have six core subjects(English, SOSE, religion, maths, science, HPE) and choose three electives and two enrichment courses.

Famous quotes containing the word curriculum:
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
