The first two weeks of school are crucial for laying a solid foundation for the rest of the academic year. This period is marked by adjusting to the new routine, introducing students to the curriculum, and creating a positive learning environment for both students and teachers.
During these two weeks, the focus shifts from initial integration and organisation to establishing a more consistent study and work routine. While there’s still room for adjustments, students begin to settle into the rhythm, and the expectations for the rest of the year become clearer.
What to Expect in the First Week of School:
1. Integration and Familiarisation with the School Environment: Integration activities remain important, but by now, students should feel more comfortable with their peers, teachers, and the school setting.
2. Introduction to the Curriculum: After the initial introductions, teachers will start covering the first topics of each subject. This is the time to spark students' interest in the themes they will explore throughout the year.
3. Establishing Routines: The first two weeks are ideal for developing good study habits, organising materials, and managing time effectively. A clear routine helps students stay focused and organised as the workload increases.
