🎯 Mission
Marymount Primary School aims to provide quality education. We aim at the greater development of our students in moral, intellectual, physical, social, aesthetic and spiritual aspects based on our Catholic and cultural traditions.
📚 Approach & Strategies
Lessons and learning activities are planned and conducted to meet the MPS Teaching Philosophy, which aims to provide students with a Motivating, Interactive, Inspiring, Effective and Reflective atmosphere for learning. Bloom's Taxonomy is applied in questioning during lesson time to enhance students' high order thinking abilities.
💛 SEN Support
1. 'Early Identification and Intervention Programme' supports P.1 students with learning difficulties. 2. School-based Speech Therapy Services for students with speech and language needs. 3. After-school Homework Support Classes for additional student support. 4. Assessment and Homework accommodations for students with special needs.
🎨 Whole-person Learning
To develop and enhance students' multiple intelligences, the school has organized various school teams and fee-charging interest groups. Students actively participate in various activities, including visits, outdoor learning, religious activities, voluntary services, and different types of competitions.
