Curriculum
Teaching and Learning
- At Tenby teaching and learning is based on the best modern practice and recent research into how learning occurs. Students are expected to be actively involved in their own learning, not merely recipients of knowledge passed on to them by teachers. Individual research, pair and group work are emphasised. ICT is used throughout the curriculum to enhance teaching and learning. The state-of-the-art facilities ensure that every student has the opportunity to be computer-literate from a young age and empowered with knowledge on the latest in information communication technology.
- At every level, there is a strong emphasis on communicating in English; a mastery of the language is encouraged and the reading habit and appreciation of literature is developed. Students are encouraged to develop an appreciation of the arts and to express themselves through music, art, drama or dance.
Learning is not however confined to the classroom. Every student from age 7 onwards is expected to participate in a wide-ranging co-curricular programme. Students may pursue personal interests, sports, the arts as well as projects aimed at promoting social and community awareness. The School?s aims are not only academic; students are given the opportunity to develop personal, social and leadership skills; to become responsible young people who care about society, are aware of social issues and have respect for others
