Bennett, A Cambridge School

Our school follows the internationally recognized Cambridge framework, which emphasizes high-quality instruction, critical thinking, and global-minded learning for young students.

Global Perspectives encourages students to explore real-world topics, think critically, and understand diverse viewpoints while developing collaboration and communication skills.

No—Global Perspectives is fully embedded into the curriculum. Students experience these skills throughout their daily lessons, projects, and discussions.

RICER stands for Reflective, Innovative, Confident, Engaged, and Responsible, and it guides the habits and mindsets we aim to develop in all students.

RICER provides the character and thinking skills students need to succeed in Global Perspectives, helping them reflect on ideas, try new solutions, engage with peers, and take responsibility for their learning.

Students build strong academic skills, learn to communicate effectively, develop confidence in their ideas, and grow as thoughtful, responsible young citizens.

Yes. The Cambridge framework and Global Perspectives skills strengthen problem-solving, reasoning, and study habits that set students up for success in later Cambridge courses and beyond.

Absolutely. Students participate in age-appropriate inquiries, group activities, and real-world problem-solving tasks integrated into their regular subjects.

Teachers observe and assess skills like collaboration, reflection, communication, and reasoning through classroom work, conversations, and projects rather than formal tests.

Parents can encourage curiosity by discussing real-world topics, asking open-ended questions, and celebrating their child’s efforts to be reflective, innovative, confident, engaged, and responsible.
