Departments
At IEGS we promote scholarly and critical thinking in English. It is our aim that every student develops their critical faculties during their three years at the school. We have seven departments each with a head of department that help support teachers with course content and teaching objectives.
To help ensure that students achieve academic excellence it is each department's goal to make sure students :
-
are acquainted with the principal concepts and practices across the curriculum
-
develop an understanding of the scientific method and the objectives and the current methods of research
-
develop language skills so that they can communicate at an appropriate level generally, and specifically, in the vocabulary of the subjects across the curriculum
-
are equipped with the capacity to establish relationships between the principal elements and concepts of the different academic disciplines
IEGS believes that every student has the capacity to develop intellectually, personally and morally. Our pedagogy is based on a work ethic where improvement comes through hard work, creativity, commitment and dedication.
