Core subjects include:
Word Building
Bible Reading
Animal Science
Mathematics
(After 12 weeks, students progress to English, Science, and Social Studies while continuing Mathematics.)
We emphasize encouragement over discipline at this stage—there are no demerits or detentions in Grade R as we believe in guiding children with patience and love.
Grades 2 – 7: Learning with Confidence
With a strong foundation in reading, students from Grade 2 onwards gain the ability to learn independently. They progress at their own pace under the careful supervision of dedicated teachers who offer individualized support.
One-on-One Assistance
Teachers answer each student’s questions privately, promoting confidence and curiosity.
Encouragement-Based Learning
Students are motivated daily to reach their full potential.
Merit & Accountability System
Good behaviour and achievements are rewarded, while demerits and detentions (from Grade 2 onwards) encourage responsibility.
Fresh Start Every Day
Just as the Lord’s mercies are new every morning, students begin each day with a clean slate.
“At Andrews Preparatory School, we are committed to bringing education back to God, back to the Bible, back to basics, and back to the individual.“
