At Safari International School, we believe in ongoing assessments that provide meaningful and timely feedback to students, parents, and teachers. Assessments at Safari are designed to support student growth, help teachers plan more effectively, and ensure parents are well-informed about their child’s progress.
We use the MAP Growth Test for Math and English, an internationally recognized assessment aligned with the Cambridge International Curriculum. This assessment provides valuable insights into each student’s abilities, helping us tailor our teaching to individual learning needs.
As an IB PYP candidate school, we embrace a holistic approach to assessment that goes beyond traditional testing. Students are assessed through a variety of methods that align with the IB philosophy, focusing on their development as inquiring, knowledgeable, and caring individuals.
This approach ensures that students not only acquire knowledge but also develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills.
For students completing Year 6, parents have the option to have their child sit for the Cambridge Checkpoint Test in English, Math, and Science. This internationally recognized test provides certification that can be useful for students planning to continue their studies abroad.
At Safari International School, we use assessments not just as a way to measure performance but as a tool to support learning and growth. By combining internationally recognized assessments like MAP Growth and Cambridge Checkpoint with the holistic approach of the IB PYP, we ensure that every child is equipped with the skills and knowledge to excel in their educational journey and beyond.
