Primary Years (PYP)
At Naavu, a proposed IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) school, we follow a curriculum built for curious minds and open hearts. Most importantly, we follow the child.
Our four pillars
These aren’t just teaching strategies. They reflect the pedagogical heart of Naavu. This is how we spark curiosity, build understanding, and support every learner’s journey.
Learning to read
Reading opens up the world. It builds imagination, language, empathy, and confidence. It’s more than a skill. It’s the foundation for everything else children will learn.
At Naavu, we guide each child to become a joyful and capable reader by meeting them exactly where they are.
Solid Foundations
Real and Relevant Texts
Support for Every Learner
A Culture of Reading
Our Approach: Comprehensive and Inclusive
We blend structure with story, creating a path where all children can find their voice through reading, with purpose, patience, and joy.
Learning math
Math builds more than numeracy. It grows logic, confidence, and problem-solving. At Naavu, we treat math as a way of thinking, not just a subject to memorize.
Our approach helps children see math in the world around them and understand the “why” behind the “how.”
Strong Foundations
Problem-Solving Mindset
Everyday Applications
Encouraging Progress
Our Approach: Purposeful, Practical
Our math lessons are built to help every child grow in clarity, creativity, and confidence; one discovery at a time.
Learning support
Every child learns differently. At Naavu, we create a learning environment where each student feels seen, supported, and safe to grow. Our support is personal, responsive, and always designed around the child.
Tailored Plans
English Language Support
Wellbeing First
Our Approach: Inclusive and Individualized
Support at Naavu is not a program. It’s a mindset that reflects in everything we do. A unique mindset that believes every child deserves to thrive in their own way.
