Kicking Off the Day at MLKIS

Being a student at MLKIS is an exciting journey filled with enriching experiences every day. Each step of the day is designed to maximise our potential, build confidence, and prepare us for the future. From personalised lessons to engaging extracurricular activities, here’s a glimpse into what a day in my life as a MLKIS A Level student looks like.

Homeroom

The day begins in the homeroom, a warm and welcoming start where we catch up with our peers and discuss the day’s agenda with our homeroom teacher. This session sets the tone for the day, ensuring we are all on the same page and ready to tackle our subjects. It’s a great time to share any concerns or exciting news with the teacher, who always provides guidance and support. This personalised attention is one of the many benefits of MLKIS’s approach to education.

Lessons


Our lessons are meticulously planned to cater to our individual learning styles and goals. Each class is engaging and interactive, designed to keep us motivated and curious. For instance, in our Cambridge Curriculum-based lessons, we delve deep into subjects like Mathematics, Physics, and History, exploring both theoretical and practical aspects.

The student-centric lesson plans ensure that each topic is covered thoroughly, with ample opportunities for discussion and clarification. The benefits of this approach are immense – it not only makes learning enjoyable but also helps in retaining information better.

Personalised Education: At Kingsley International School, the focus is on personalised education. Each student is treated as an individual with unique learning needs. Teachers employ various teaching methods to accommodate different learning styles, whether visual, auditory, or kinesthetic.

This ensures that every student can grasp complex concepts in a way that resonates with them. By tailoring lessons to individual needs, MLKIS makes learning more effective and enjoyable.

Conventional Education with a Modern Twist: While MLKIS adheres to the rigorous standards of the Cambridge Curriculum, it also incorporates modern teaching techniques. Interactive discussions, group projects, and hands-on experiments are regular features in our lessons. 

This blend of conventional and contemporary methods keeps us engaged and fosters a deeper understanding of the subjects. The benefits are clear: improved academic performance, enhanced critical thinking skills, and a genuine love for learning.

Preparation for the Future: The education at MLKIS is designed with long-term outcomes in mind. By focusing on both immediate learning goals and future aspirations, the school prepares us not just for exams but for life. The comprehensive curriculum and the emphasis on real-world applications ensure that we are well-equipped to face future challenges, whether in higher education or in our careers.

Lunch Time

Lunch time is a much-awaited break where we get to relax and socialise with friends. The cafeteria at MLKIS offers a variety of healthy and delicious meals, catering to all dietary needs. This is also a great time to unwind, share laughs, and discuss everything from the latest trends to academic challenges. Socialisation during lunch is vital as it helps in building strong bonds and developing interpersonal skills.

Outdoor Time
Outdoor time is another highlight of the day. Whether it’s a sports activity, a walk in the school garden, or simply some time spent under the open sky, this break is essential for our physical and mental well-being. MLKIS’s emphasis on holistic education means that our physical health is given as much importance as our academic progress. This balance is crucial for maintaining overall well-being and ensuring that we are ready to face the challenges of the day.

Approaches at MLKIS

1-to-1 Coaching: One of the standout features of Kingsley International School is its commitment to individualised coaching. Each student receives personalised attention from teachers who understand their strengths and areas for improvement. This one-on-one interaction allows for tailored feedback and guidance, helping students overcome challenges and excel in their studies. This approach fosters a strong teacher-student relationship, where students feel supported and motivated to achieve their best.

Constant Monitoring of Holistic Progression: AtMLKIS, education goes beyond academics. The school monitors the holistic progression of students, which includes their academic performance, physical health, and overall wellbeing. Regular check-ins and assessments ensure that any issues are identified early, and appropriate support is provided. This comprehensive monitoring helps students maintain a balanced lifestyle, crucial for their mental and emotional health.


MLKIS delivers student-centric lessons based on the Cambridge Curriculum, preparing us to be confident and excel in our A Level. Our successes are a testament to this, and we applaud the dedication of our teachers who contribute massively to our achievements. With their support, we are always encouraged to reach for the stars.

As we continue our journey at MLKIS, we are grateful for the enriching experiences and the strong foundation being laid for our future. To all the students, best of luck, and as we don’t believe in goodbyes, we say: See you again!
