Primary
Blue Sky Academy provides students with a solid foundation by delivering a harmonious combination of 3 programmes: the National Education Programme, the Cambridge Primary Programme and the Comprehensive Development Programme as well, to build the skills, knowledge and understanding for our students to become successful life-long learners.
The program comprises a comprehensive curriculum which prepares students for their higher education right from primary division, building upon a solid base of academics, understanding and a sense of beauty and technology.

Diving into an exciting learning environment, alongside our native English-speaking teachers, students are encouraged to discover their world, develop intellectual and social skills, improve their critical and reasoning skills, and present their ideas confidently and creatively.
Primary National Programme
