Middle School Certificate – Grade 7

Internationally, the Cambridge Lower Secondary Programme (CLSP) resources are appropriate for teaching and learning in local and international schools. Furen International School’s Middle School Certificate – Grade 7 (MSC Grade 7) is based on the CLSP curriculum and builds on the primary stage and develops learners’ knowledge and skills in the four key subject areas: English, Mathematics, Science and Chinese Language. Upon completion of the course, we expect students to be equipped with the knowledge and skills to sit for the MSC Grade 7 Examination and be well-prepared for MSC Grade 8 in FIS.

Compulsory Module

English Language

This module aims to enable students to communicate effectively in English. At the end of the course, students are expected to be able to listen, read, write and speak to meet general living needs. They are also expected to speak, write and make presentations in internationally acceptable English for academic purpose.

Core Modules

Mathematics

This module aims to enable students to acquire the necessary mathematical concepts and skills for everyday life, for continuous learning in Mathematics and related disciplines, and to develop the necessary process skills for the acquisition and application of mathematical concepts and skills. It is also intended to develop students’ logical thinking and problem solving skills and apply these skills to solve problems in different areas.

Combined Science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology)

This module helps learners develop a lifelong curiosity about the natural world and helps them to seek scientific explanations for the surrounding phenomena. Students develop a holistic approach to Science by considering scientific thinking and practical skills alongside knowledge and understanding, which is vital for explaining the world. This approach provides learners with the knowledge and skills they need to excel at Science in later stages of education. It also helps them to make informed choices, including considering sustainability issues and meeting the challenges facing our environment.

This module aims to develop students’ Chinese language skills in four aspects: listening, speaking, reading and writing. Upon completion of the module, students should be able to speak Chinese with confidence, conduct Chinese conversations and write Chinese essays.
