Curriculum
Characteristics
English is the medium of instruction for all subjects while Putonghua is used for Chinese and Moral Education.
Experienced and professionally trained teachers at YYPS design their own school-based curriculum. The teaching progression of all of our subjects is built around a set of corresponding topics in a theme-based curriculum.
Another unique feature in our curriculum is our co-teaching system. For many of our subjects, two teachers teach collaboratively in the classroom. With the co-teaching system, we can better tend to the individual learning needs of our students.

Information technology in education is key to enhancing learning and teaching in the 21st century. E-learning has become even more essential as distance learning has become imperative in light of the pandemic. Our teachers are well-versed in using a variety of technology to complement our lessons in both face-to-face and distance learning settings. Our students learn the necessary skills and processes to effectively utilize these E-Learning platforms and applications as well. E-learning at YYPS is further supported by our hardware including the 300 tablets, laptops and interactive whiteboards we have available for our students and teachers.
