Academics at Salem Heights

At Salem Heights Schools, we believe in providing a well-rounded and challenging academic experience that prepares our students for success in college and beyond. Our curriculum is designed to foster critical thinking, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning.

Small Classes

We have small classes which enable teachers to offer personal attention to the students. It is easier to build virtues of trust and mutual understanding between teachers and students.

Intensive Tuition

This ensures that students become thoroughly familiar with all aspects of the various syllabi. At Salem Heights, students receive six hours of tuition per day. In addition, students are expected to follow up on their schoolwork by completing assignments and studying, using textbooks, and notebooks.

The students receive course outlines at the beginning of the term and great effort is applied to ensure that the various schemes of work are thoroughly covered.

The students are helped to develop examination techniques and strategies so that by the end of their study, they are able to apply the knowledge they have acquired to achieve good grades.

Our teachers ensure that learning is stimulating and enjoyable by encouraging direct discussions which go on well after lessons. Adequate time is allocated for general interaction in class every day. This makes students leave Salem Heights bold, mature, and ready to face the future with confidence.

Examination & Testing

We monitor the progress of our students with regular tests and project work. Impromptu and organized tests are given fortnightly every time, while students are examined at the end of each term. Students are encouraged to revise during the holidays, in order to consolidate their knowledge and prepare for the following term.

Reports

The school monitors students closely while parents and guardians are kept fully informed of progress made each term. Parents are encouraged to visit regularly and check on the progress of their children. Students' performance is recorded in a continuous assessment report booklet and copies sent to parents.
