Provo Primary School — A unique Primary School, offering a British based, child centred education in the Turks and Caicos Islands

We congratulate our Year 6 children for their great effort and the incredible progress they have made in all areas of the curriculum. They have achieved the results they worked so hard for, have all graduated and are going to the schools of their choice. We are excited that 10 of our children will be attending our new Middle School (Provo Middle School) and the other 6 children will be going to B.W.Indies Collegiate.
A proud moment for Provo Primary when our Science Team were announced 1st place winners in the FortisTCI Annual National Science and Technology Fair Science Project competition. Congratulations to all our amazing students involved and to our incredible team leader, Mr. Jason (our Year 6 teacher and Science Fair / Quiz Coordinator this year).
Challenging every child to reach their own unique potential
Our main goal is to develop well-rounded, happy children. We believe that children have a unique combination of learning styles and multiple intelligences. We strive to recognise and nurture each child’s inherent abilities and emerging strengths, whilst also supporting their weaknesses. We provide as many
Offering a rich, imaginative and inspiring curriculum

We offer a rich, broad and balanced curriculum, which is supported by a wide range of extra-curricular activities and events. We have a belief that whilst we always
Creative, hands on learning
Our creative environment supports different styles of teaching and learning across the curriculum in all subjects. Interesting activities make learning meaningful and fun. They nurture creativity and imagination by encouraging knowledge, control of materials and a command of ideas.
Learning through play
All children have a natural desire to learn and do so at their own individual pace. We aim to provide a nurturing and stimulating environment, where young children happily learn through play, exploring and developing their own relationships, building on experiences and learning new skills.
Striving for Excellence in the Core Subjects
Our dedicated, highly skilled teachers strive for excellence in three ‘core’ subjects of English, Mathematics and Science, to ensure that the foundations of literacy, numeracy and scientific investigation are thoroughly laid.
Drama and Theatre Arts
Drama offers children the chance to develop their creativity. It also develops confidence to perform on stage and in everyday life.
STEM and Computer Technology
Using technology to enhance and extend teaching and learning across the whole curriculum. Our use of tablets, computers and interactive whiteboards enable us to access the latest technology and educational resources from around the world. Children access digital cameras, monitors, Makey Makey interfaces and programmable toys.
Music
Music is an integral part of our school. Creating and performing music helps children express themselves creatively and we offer those who are talented in this area the opportunity to enjoy and develop their interest.
Sports
Success in physical education enhances achievement in other areas of learning. It builds self-esteem, motivation, co-operation and concentration and provides a foundation for a healthy lifestyle which we hope will continue for a lifetime. We are fortunate to access a range of world-class facilities for our Physical
Opening doors of opportunity, fostering responsibility, independence, courage and trust
