Cambridge Primary curriculum

There is a Cambridge Primary curriculum framework for each subject – English, English as a second language, mathematics and science – providing a clear teaching structure. Many schools use the integrated assessments to monitor learners’ progress.

English (0844)

Cambridge Primary English enables learners to communicate confidently and effectively and to develop the critical skills to respond to a range of information, media and texts with understanding and enjoyment. Learners who follow this curriculum framework will develop a first language competency in English based on a curriculum designed to be successful in any culture and to promote cross-cultural understanding.

English as a second language (0837)

This curriculum develops learners’ speaking, listening, reading and writing skills in English. It has been developed in conjunction with Cambridge Assessment English and is based on the Council of Europe’s Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), used across the world to map learners’ progress in English.

Mathematics (0845)

The mathematics curriculum framework explores five content areas: number, geometry, measure, handling data and problem solving. This curriculum focuses on principles, patterns, systems, functions and relationships so that learners can apply their mathematical knowledge and develop a holistic understanding of the subject.

Science (0846)

This curriculum framework covers four content areas: scientific enquiry, biology, chemistry and physics. Scientific enquiry is about considering ideas, evaluating evidence, planning, investigating, recording and analysing data. Environmental awareness and some history of science are also part of the curriculum.

Cambridge Global Perspectives (0838)

Cambridge Primary Global Perspectives develops the skills of research, analysis, evaluation, reflection, collaboration and communication. Find out more about how the programme is taught and assessed.

Extending our Cambridge Primary programme

We were pleased to announce that in September 2019 we added four new themes to our Cambridge primary program.

Art & Design

Cambridge Primary Art & Design enables learners to express themselves whilst experiencing, making and reflecting on art. As they explore the limitless possibilities that art can offer, learners will begin to think like artists. They will welcome challenges, generate and communicate ideas and review and refine their work. Learners who follow this curriculum will embrace art’s potential for voicing things that cannot be captured in words and the links that exist between human feeling and creative output.

Digital Literacy

This curriculum develops learners' understanding of the digital world. They will develop the skills they need to use digital tools in an informed and effective way. Learners who follow this curriculum will understand how to stay safe but also balance their caution with a celebration of the opportunities that technology can offer.

Music

This curriculum enables learners to broaden their experience and appreciation of music. Learners will explore music as performers, composers and informed listeners. They will make and understand music, discovering it from different cultures, times and places. This curriculum will help learners to cultivate a joy of music as well as developing confidence and leadership and collaboration skills.

Physical Education

This curriculum focuses on developing learners movement skills and establishing healthy patterns for life. It will explore the skills of creativity, collaboration, leadership and responsibility. Learners who follow this curriculum will develop an understanding of movement and appreciation of their health and well-being.

Curriculum frameworks, teacher guides and schemes of work, appropriate for teaching and learning in local and international schools, will be available in September 2019. There will also be online training available from February 2020 to support teachers delivering these subjects.
