Making classes more exciting and enjoyable for children by using games, songs, and stories.
Children develop numeracy and literacy skills as they progress and learn about creative and world topics. This early learning helps to develop solid skills for the Reception year.

We provide continuity for your child through structured transition activities that ensure your child is academically and emotionally prepared for next year.

They are also motivated to take ownership of their learning and strive for excellence across the curriculum to better prepare them for their destination schools at the end of Year 14.

The secondary group is the category that falls between the primary and pre-primary groups. Children can join MARC school in Pre-primary class during the term they turn Five. Students in this category receive specialized care and attention. Our goal is to create opportunities for students to achieve their highest academic goals while nurturing and developing their unique personalities, talents, and interests. By providing students with opportunities to thrive in school and beyond, we help them to become successful learners and well-rounded individuals eager to take their learning to the next level. Through learning the skills necessary to qualify for examinations, students can perform tasks such as applying, assessing, evaluating, using, reevaluating, and developing that knowledge as they go through life. We plan the learning activities around the skills students require every day, as well as those they will need in the future.
Pre-vocational classes are offered to older adults. This class is for differently-abled children above the age of 18 with various abilities. Children can join MARC school in Pre-Vocational classes during the term they turn 18. Each student's knowledge is carefully assessed and trained based on their level.

Introducing career and employability skills enhances the ongoing development of life, social, and learning skills. To support these areas of development, these continue to be integrated into all lessons and ongoing distinct classes. Educators teach subjects based on each student's ability and groups are formed to accommodate that ability. We want to instill integrity in our students by teaching them respect for themselves and others and ensuring they understand the distinction between right and wrong.
Children who need more attention and care are included in this group. Differently abled children between the ages of 8 and 25 are included in the level. Considering the constraints, we select the most specific, essential activities without complexities for this group. Selected activities are taught to each child individually based on their abilities. By forming small groups of two or three students within the class according to their level, we can personalize instruction without sacrificing class time. Each student would be assigned to a group based on similar skill levels and educational objectives. Additionally, we can teach general concepts to the entire group while pairing them with individual instruction to teach students at multiple levels at the same time. Individual students can benefit from this approach regardless of their proficiency level since every school subject has some general concepts that are relevant.
