The Year 9 Bridge Program at Stewards.ONE is a specially designed initiative for home-educated students who are transitioning into full-time education. Recognising the unique challenges that many home-educated students face—such as learning gaps, slower work pace, and inconsistencies in foundational subjects like English and Maths—this program offers targeted support to help students bridge these gaps and acclimate to the structure and rigor of a full-time academic environment.
International GCSE (IGCSE) and high school studies require not only a strong academic foundation but also disciplined study habits and the ability to master essential subjects. The Bridge Program addresses these needs by providing a well-crafted curriculum that is tailored to assess and elevate each student’s current proficiency level, particularly in Maths and English. Our approach is focused on raising fluency and ensuring that students achieve the necessary competencies to succeed in their future studies.
In addition to core subjects, the Year 9 Bridge Program offers a broad curriculum that includes Character Building, providing students with the moral and ethical framework that is integral to their overall development. Below is a full list of subjects included in Year 9 IGCSE Bridge:
Morning Dhikr: Each day begins with morning dhikr promoting God consciousness.
Core Academic Subjects:
- English Language: Developing essential language skills, emphasising reading, writing, and comprehension to ensure strong communication abilities.
