The transition from elementary to middle school brings significant biochemical and
physiological changes, marking the onset of adolescence. Diamond Academy’s Middle
School, which includes grades 7 and 8, provides a supportive environment to guide
students through this crucial period. Recognizing the intellectual and personal growth
associated with these changes, the Academy offers comprehensive support, including
counseling, to nurture each student’s development.
The Middle School curriculum introduces students to in-depth learning across various
subjects, building on foundational knowledge. It cultivates a deeper understanding of
key concepts and essential learning skills through creative, innovative, and intellectual
activities. Subjects like Language Arts, Mathematics, ICT, General Science, Social Studies,
Citizenship Education, and Physical Education are taught using diverse methods to
accommodate different learning styles. Teachers foster a passion for learning,
encouraging critical thinking, problem-solving, and inquiry.
Beyond academics, Diamond Academy emphasizes holistic development. A range of
extracurricular activities allows students to explore interests and develop new skills. The
Academy celebrates important days and cultural events with students, teachers, and
parents. This fosters a strong sense of community, cultural awareness, and social
confidence. This supportive environment helps students navigate social and emotional
changes, build positive relationships, and prepare for future challenges by equipping
them with essential skills.
At Diamond Academy, we understand the middle school years are a period of significant growth, transition, and increasing independence. A robust partnership between home, school, and the wider community remains vital for supporting academic excellence,
fostering social-emotional well-being, and preparing students for high school and beyond.
