Academics
Elementary
Curious, capable, conceptual learners. Our Grade 2 to 5 students dive deep into the IB Primary Years Programme.
Grades 2 – 5
Inquiry that matters.
Elementary at WISS is where the IB Primary Years Programme really takes flight. Students take ownership of their learning through transdisciplinary units of inquiry — investigating big ideas that connect Maths, Science, Humanities, Languages, and the Arts.
Our teachers are PYP-trained specialists who craft learning that is both deeply academic and joyfully personal. By Grade 5, students culminate the PYP through the Exhibition — a self-driven inquiry into a real-world issue they care about.
