IOP Elementary : Foundation

The IOP 3 areas of experiences form the FOUNDATION SUBJECTS of the IOP Curriculum:

  1. History
  2. Geography
  3. Music
  4. Art
  5. Physical Education
  6. Technology 

History and Geography are often interwoven in PROJECT and THEMATIC work called HUMANITIES. 

Arts (Creative and Expressive) and Physical Education are CENTRAL EXPERIENCES. 

These aspects extend beyond the normal class lessons and include MUSIC GROUPS, SPORTING GROUPS, EDUCATIONAL VISITS and COMMUNITY CARING.

Teachers offer other aspects of learning which are an integral part of the LIFE OF THE SCHOOL.

We aim to use Humanities to enable your child:

Humanities

  • To appreciate and understand the human CONTEXT of the world in which he or she lives.
  • To come to terms with the development of his or her own personality.
  • To recognise that each individual needs to have a framework of MORAL and SPIRITUAL dimensions to make real sense of the world and his or her place in it.
  • To understand the nature and value of the places and ways of people NOW and in the PAST.
  • To learn how to become CONSCIOUS members of the ENVIRONMENT and its RESOURCES.  
Central Experience

  • To explore his or her imaginative MIND and BEING in order to engender SENSITIVITY and DELIGHT.
  • To take part in Drama, Painting, Drawing, Craft, Pottery, Music, Dance and Movement knowing the ways he or she can use them as powerful forms of EXPRESSION and COMMUNICATION.
Life of the School

  • To become especially AWARE of himself or herself as an individual.
  • To develop awareness of, and respect for, a whole range of individual differences within other people.
  • To discover that FEELINGS are much the same for all people, young and old.
  • To discover that it is NATURAL for human beings to be ANGRY, HAPPY or SAD.
  • To understand that GROUPS who have learned TRUST, SUPPORT, CARE, COOPERATION, SELF-KNOWLEDGE and KNOWLEDGE OF OTHERS can, with RESPECT, make ALL DIFFICULT THINGS BETTER.
