Lower Primary

Inculcating a Passion for Learning

Programmes to support your child through their formative years. Without any formal assessment until Primary Three, our programmes are designed to help your child prepare for their first formal assessment without feeling the academic pressure.

A Curated Curriculum to Ignite the Fun in Education.


Primary 1

English | Math

Designed to help your child settle into a brand new environment, we focus on helping your child developing an interest in the subject and the syllabus. At this formative stage, we help your child gain an awareness of people and things around them along with understanding the significance of the subject.


Primary 2

English | Math

At this stage, students should start to gain mastery over the basics of each subject. We focus on your child’s ability to communicate and present ideas in a coherent manner, along with their ability to interact with others. Our teachers facilitate discussion and explore key ideas to further nurture your child’s interest in academia and the larger world around them.


Primary 3

English | Math | Science

Primary 3 students experience a large learning jump with Science an added subject in their syllabus. Additionally, they face formal assessment for the first time. We focus on honing your child’s examination techniques: time-management, precise answering technique and self-evaluation. This helps ease your child into the examination regime and the higher demands yet expected as the progress towards upper primary.



Stories from Parents and Students

Grace looks forward to her lessons at Crucible every week. A real difference from her previous tuitions. Her grades have also seen a significant improvement, with her composition improving from around 60% to 95%!

Besides the academic improvement, it is obvious to our whole family that Grace has become a more thoughtful child and is often curious about events she hears on the news. She even debated with me when she overheard me discussing something with my friend! My friend, a lawyer, was impressed by her clarity of thought and method of justifying her ideas!

Without a doubt, Crucible’s Primary Programme has worked a charm for Grace and I am assured that she is in great hands during her formative educational years.

I really enjoy the lessons I have at Crucible. Besides improving academically, I also gain a deeper understanding of global issues.

What I enjoy most is my teacher’s stories and analogies to help me understand the concepts required of me!
— Aloysius Tan, enrolled in Science and English
Maths has always been a subject Rachel struggled with. The tutors have been very patient and supportive in clarifying all of Rachel’s problems and doubts. Also impressed with the easy to follow frameworks provided. I have nothing but praise for Crucible!
