Developing the Whole Child as An Inquirer

The XCL World Academy Primary Years Programme creates a stimulating and challenging environment that nurtures a child’s natural curiosity, creativity and ability to reflect, and helps them to develop a lifelong love of learning.

Whether for 1st or 5th grade aged students, we carefully support your children to gradually take greater responsibility and ownership for their own learning through our inquiry-led framework.

Inquiry-Based Learning
