Junior School · Grades 7–9
A wider timetable, a wider horizon
Junior School brings more subjects, more independence and the first national examinations, with community service and competition that take learning beyond the classroom.
What learning looks like
More subjects, more responsibility
Junior scholars study a full range of subjects and begin preparing for the Bahamas Junior Certificate (BJC) examinations.
Learning becomes more independent. Scholars manage their own assignments in Google Classroom, give presentations, and discover new interests in the kitchen, on the court and on stage.
From Grade 7, every scholar contributes forty hours of community service each year. A healthy community means a bright future.
