The International Primary Curriculum Route Map is the Primary Section's overall plan for the IPC Units which will be covered. It is so designed that children cover a broad range of topics as they progress through the school.
Even though a child may stay in a joint class with the same teacher for two years (e.g. Year 5/6), the same units will not be covered twice.
Academic Year 2012-13
"Blocks" refer to the academic year's 5-week blocks. Blocks 1-3 make up the Autumn term, Blocks 4 and 5 are in the Winter term and Blocks 6 and 7 are in the Summer term.
