Overview
Learning at Stonehill is an exciting journey of discovery guided by the dynamic, inquiry based approach of the International Baccalaureate (IB). The Stonehill curriculum provides students with a broad educational programme which extends learning beyond the academic to the social, ethical, physical, creative and emotional development of each child.
By emphasizing the inter-relatedness of subjects, the Stonehill curriculum enables students to make connections between different areas of knowledge, thus developing in them the ability to be uniquely reflective about their learning.
Over the first three years, Stonehill intends to offer the full benefit of the IB by implementing and gaining authorisation for all three of its programmes - the IB Primary Years Programme, leading into the IB Middle Years Programme and culminating in the IB Diploma. Together, they provide a dynamic curriculum framework which enriches the development of students and creates life-long learners. Stonehill has been authorised for the DP programme since May 2010 and is in the "candidate" phase for the PYP and the MYP programmes. Stonehill has targetted 2011.
