The Program

Pre-school

In true entrepreneurial spirit Pre-schoolers are encouraged to develop their love for learning through discovery of the exciting world around them, while expert teachers hone each child’s academic skills and nurture talent. Starting at the tender age of 4 years old, Pre-schoolers embark on their journey to prepare for the best primary school education.

Primary School

Rosenberg primary school students challenge curious thinkers while encouraging academic excellence, whether experimenting in science, learning about their heroes or taking part in mathematics competitions. Guided by trained and experienced professionals, students learn in English alongside a strong German enrichment programme.

The years in middle school are the formative years for students. This is why exploring and testing one’s skills across the entire range of subjects is imperative at this stage of education.

The Rosenberg Middle School programme has been carefully designed to deliver breadth and challenge across a wide range of subjects.
