Curriculum

A curriculum that honours God and supports the parents in the nurture of their children in a Christian home

Tyndale Park Christian School (TPCS) curriculum has a proven track record for parents' confidence that their children are taught a curriculum with academic rigour:

  • Our Numeracy (Mathematics) and Literacy (Reading and Writing) results are 20 and 15 percentage points above the national average in Progressive Achievement Tests (PATs). 
  • All children are well grounded in the knowledge and skills that form the foundations of a good education.
  • Set standards and honest reporting. Standards in all subjects are published so that pupils and teachers know what is expected and what progress is being made. Parents receive regular reports on pupils' progress, and each term we issue detailed reports showing how each pupil's progress compares with the standards set.
  • Trained and gifted teachers. Each of our teachers has had to meet demanding standards in terms of the quality of their Christian lives, knowledge of the curriculum, and training for quality teaching.
  • We believe God has given parents the responsibility for their children's education. So they have access to the curriculum and all the work their children do. They are also entitled to visit classrooms at any time.

In summary, we teach:

  • Bible-based curriculum which acknowledges the Bible as the infallible record of God’s revelation to Man.
  • The English curriculum teaches the skills of speaking, reading, and writing good English.
  • Mathematics curriculum teaches children the skills they need to live and work in today’s world.
  • Science, Culture (Social Studies), and History curricula look at God’s creation and the story of man’s response to God in the light of the Bible.
  • Wide range of practical courses in which the Bible’s standard of excellence forms the basis for teaching skills for service.
