Job Description- Primary Year Programme

students across to an environment where they experience the learning. Thus, students

construct meaning and make sense of the world through the interplay of asking, doing and

thinking, leading to open, democratic classrooms. Teachers engage in cycles of inquiry, action

and reflection that lead to deeper understanding and lifelong learning. Teachers meet
