The school complements the Cambridge Primary Curriculum with rigorous Mathematics and language courses.

Singapore Mathematics Framework

Invictus utilises the Singapore Ministry of Education Mathematics Framework for our Mathematics courses. The framework is renowned worldwide for its comprehensive programme and used in many schools internationally. It aims to equip students with a level of mastery of mathematics that will serve them well in life while enabling them to pursue the subject at the highest levels if they have the interest and aptitude.

The Singapore Mathematics curriculum uniquely features a spiral design where topics are revisited and extended. At the small and tight circle of the spiral, a new mathematical topic is introduced. When a student progresses to the next level of the spiral, they revisit the topic and are introduced to related concepts that are more difficult.

The curriculum is also based on the Concrete Pictorial Abstract (CPA) approach which posits that people learn in three stages: through real objects, pictures and then symbols such as plus and minus signs. The CPA is well known for modelling mathematical problems with visual aids to build an understanding of concepts such as fractions, ratios and algebraic reasoning in a systematic way.

Well-Rounded Education in a Global Environment

Invictus provides multilingual education so students gain a competitive edge in our global environment. We have an international community of students from more than 45 countries. Lessons are conducted in English, and languages offered include Khmer, Chinese, and French.

With over 45 nationalities on our campus, our teachers recognize the importance of an inclusive environment and help ensure every student is known and that their learning needs are met. Our vision is to promote life-long learning and prepare students for the future through international education. Our school year runs from August to June every year with a two-week break in December.
