Trilingual Curriculum Overview

New Specialised Sports Track

The Specialised Sports Track in Middle School was created to enrich the educational offering with a curriculum that places a strong emphasis on sport. It draws on over 18 years of experience with our Student-Athlete programme and with dedicated sports pathways in upper secondary education (Sports Science Lyceum and Sports Vocational Institute).

The sporting activities complement and enhance the standard curriculum hours of Physical Education.
