Lower School

At St. George’s, students aged 5 to 9 learn through the National Curriculum and the International Primary Curriculum. They ask questions, share ideas and connect new concepts. With teachers who challenge and support them, students build skills, deepen understanding and turn every lesson into meaningful learning.
