English Language Programs at RAS
RAS’s English Language programs aim to foster linguistic development in students whose primary language is not English. English is the official language of Raffles American School, and these programs are designed to equip our students with the language and linguistic strategies to succeed both academically and sociallymin a rigorous English instruction environment.
Raffles American School offers two English Language programs. The first is the English Immersion Program (EIP), which provides intensive instruction to beginning English learners (Grades 3-10). The second program is the English Language Learning (ELL) program, which supports the student’s classroom education with additional English support by our ELL certified teachers for Kindergarten through Grade 10.
English Immersion Program (EIP) is an exciting program in which students are given an opportunity to develop their English in a rigorous and immersive environment in our school community. Through the EIP program, students will take their fundamental English skills and grow to a level of fluency to meet the level of English required for mainstream classrooms taught by our native English-speaking teachers.
While in the EIP program, studies will revolve around English, but in relation to the core school subjects taught in the mainstream classroom such as Math, Science, History, and more. This is to develop the vocabulary and English skills necessary to succeed as a student and a young adult with us at RAS. The EIP program is offered for students Grade 3-10.
