English Language

The English language curriculum in Secondary School is based on Cambridge programmes.


The model is flexible to support students with different levels of language proficiency — combining traditional teaching with game-based, project-based, and communicative learning formats.


Students do not just study English — they learn through English. Key skills developed include:


  • Reading,
  • Writing,
  • Listening,
  • Speaking,
  • Critical thinking,
  • Collaboration,
  • Language Awareness.

LEARNING TO LEARN IN ENGLISH

Our students do not simply study English as a subject — they learn through it. Subjects taught in English include: Mathematics, Science, Computing, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, History, Physical Education, Global Perspectives, and Art and Design. English is also used in Theatre, Ethics, and Physical Education classes.


In the Middle and Senior School timetable, students have between 15 and 22 academic hours per week taught in English.


At the end of the academic year, students across the school take Cambridge Progression Tests in selected subjects, and our learners consistently demonstrate excellent results.


At Stembridge School, we strive to build a real bridge from Stembridge to Cambridge. This bridge is built on a careful, individual approach to every student, a combination of modern teaching methodologies, high-quality learning materials, and teachers who aim to speak the same language as children — both academically and personally.

Урок литовского языка в STEMBRIDGE

Lithuanian Language

In Secondary School, Stembridge uses an original Lithuanian language programme developed by the school’s teachers and adapted for non-native speakers.


First and foremost, we focus on developing communicative skills and strengthening students’ interest in learning Lithuanian. When children join the school having not studied Lithuanian before, or when their level of language proficiency is significantly lower than that of their peers, a special support group is created for them. In this group, students learn Lithuanian from the very basics and gradually reach the level required to continue studying together with their class.


In Grade 8, students take the National Lithuanian Language Assessment.


In Grade 10, students sit the Lithuanian language exam, which is a requirement for receiving the school leaving certificate.


In Grade 12, students also take a Lithuanian language exam, where they write either a traditional essay based on Lithuanian fiction or an essay in analytical format.


Thus, by the end of Grade 12, students are expected to have a strong command of both spoken and written Lithuanian.


All students at our school have sufficient time to study the Lithuanian language and to prepare thoroughly for the required examinations.

Secondary School Parent Testimonials

Olga
(Mother of 2nd and 7th graders)
In the school, great attention is given to each student’s personal growth. All teachers are very thoughtful in their words and try to be gentle with the children. I see progress in both children’s English language learning. The teachers approach material creatively. There is a lot of interactive learning. The school uses many non-standard teaching formats that contribute to developing not only academic knowledge but also soft skills.
I am grateful to the teachers for their determination to find an approach for each child, for their ability to rejoice in children’s successes and support them at the pace set by the children themselves.

Tatyana
(Mother of 5th and 6th graders)
I like the changes I see in my children at Stembridge. They have become calmer, more confident, not afraid to express their opinion, and know that it matters. If they want something from the school, they directly approach teachers or the administration and explain their request clearly.
I appreciate that the school is ready to respond to unusual situations and do what will be best for the child. Students are treated with respect, allowed to be children and teenagers alike. I like the variety of learning formats — teachers strive to get children interested not only in their subjects but also in the process of searching for information and the joy of discovering something new.
The children learn independently without constant parental control, often working in “grown-up” formats: they form teams, choose leaders, conduct research, make presentations, speak in front of audiences, and defend their projects.
Maxim
(Father of a 7th-grade student)
My daughter has been attending school for her second year. She happily goes to school and likes the relaxed atmosphere. She has made friends, and I see that she has improved her knowledge in many subjects, especially English. Thank you! I look forward to continued cooperation.
