SCHOOL PROFILE:

PASCAL Primary Schools in the towns of Lefkosia, Larnaka and Lemesos, offer a safe, happy and friendly environment in which teachers and parents/guardians work in
the spirit of collaboration. PASCAL Primary Schools aim to ensure that their pupils become responsible global citizens, engaged with issues of importance, such as environment and community. The main aim is for all children to enjoy learning from a balanced curriculum that will develop their talents and critical thinking skills.

The school curriculum is consistently enriched with real-life and concrete experiences which are creatively planned, vibrant and exciting. Children with little or no English are given additional support through intensive English language lessons with an aim of enabling them to access the curriculum as soon as possible.

Priority placement is offered at PASCAL Secondary Schools to PASCAL Primary School pupils who maintain an impeccable behavioural record, without the prerequisite of taking the entrance examinations.

CURRICULUM:

PASCAL Primary Schools follow Cambridge Primary Curriculum for the three core subjects of English, Mathematics and Science, which combines a world-class curriculum with integrated assessment. With respect to the Greek language, the schools follow the Cyprus Ministry of Education and Culture curriculum. Regarding the foundation subjects, which include Environmental Studies, Geography, History, Art and Design, Music, Physical Education, Design and Technology/Home Economics, JCT and World Religions the schools offer a combination of the British National Curriculum with some revisions to reflect Cypriot geographical and historical identity.

Primary years:

• 1 to 6
• Ages 5 years and 8 months*-12 years. *As of 2020/21, Cyprus Ministry of Education and Culture guidelines mandate a change in the school enrolment age: for 2020/21, 5 years and 10 months and for 2021/22, 6 years.

The main aim of the schools' systematic assessment is to enable each pupil to identify areas for development and to chart progress. This also helps the school strengthen learning across the curriculum. The school issues a progress report twice a year for all years. Cambridge Primary Progression tests are incorporated into continuous assessment for all years.

BENEFITS:

Home-School links: PASCAL Primary Schools place great importance on the relationship with parents/guardians believing that children learn best when families and school work together with unity of goals.

Healthy eating: Nutritious hot lunches are provided on an optional basis for the children by the schools' EN ISO 22000 certified catering services. All schools encourage healthy food choices.

Positive Behaviour: PASCAL Primary Schools provide a caring environment where individuality is celebrated and everyone is respected. Through positive behaviour reinforcement and a systematic whole-school approach, pupils feel positive and confident about themselves, their abilities, achievements and their power of decision making.

Bus service: A local bus company provides transportation to and from the schools.
