Description
London Christian School is Independent Primary school in Southwark for kids aged 3 to 11 (Gender - Mixed )
They are an independent primary school that exists to provide an excellent Christian education for children in London. London Christian School was established in September 2007 and started with just four pupils. Since then the school has flourished to its current size of 120 pupils across eight classes, aged from 3 to 11 years old. At LCS they believe that pupils flourish in a secure, caring and fun environment, with clear expectations and firm boundaries. The class sizes are kept small to allow us to strive for academic excellence while treating pupils as individuals. We encourage pupils to develop their own talents and personality and we value diversity in our school community.

Curriculum
The curriculum combines a rigorous academic focus with an engaging, creative approach. We adapt units of work to pupils’ interests and abilities, ensuring that they make great progress. One key way we combine academic rigour with engagement and creativity is through the embedding of technology across the curriculum. It is a carefully crafted curriculum built around a traditional Biblical Christian understanding of the worldLiteracy and Mathematics form the foundation of our education at LCS. These are taught every day from Y1- Y6 and skills are developed through formal and informal assessment, interventions, delivering lessons with captivating themes and activities, and integrating subjects such as Science, Geography and History.They inform and prepare our children for a lifetime of digital learning by teaching key principles of computing, digital literacy and online safety. We embed technology into our curriculum using portable Chromebooks, iPads and floor robots. The older children share what they make and learn via a safe social learning platform. We have also introduced LEGO® We-DO to make programs and build working models that the children can remotely control using Bluetooth. The range of software we use breaks down the classroom walls and enables complimentary learning at home.
