Embrace Our Curriculum
Since 1909, Griggs has based it curriculum on the values of dignity, honor, respect and integrity. Griggs then devised a system where teachers offer the US diploma requirements to our affiliates outside of the United States. The Griggs K-12 program is accredited at the highest level by multiple regional organizations which are recognized by the U.S. Department of Education.
When a Griggs affiliate offers a Diploma Program, it provides the same level of academic standards which are required by regional accreditation bodies of public and private schools in the USA.
Griggs International Academy has a flexible system of education from Kindergarten (age 3) to High School (age 18). Griggs students may enroll for an entire grade or for individual subjects. This enables our education programs to be adaptable to benefit one student or an entire school. The diverse range of schools that currently offer Griggs educational programs shows that there is no requirement to adopt a standardized approach. Indeed, the challenge in implementing a program is to ensure the program fits the unique school context, preserving the school’s identity and characteristics.
Some schools choose to introduce Griggs educational programs as a twin track system, which supplements the local, national or other international programs and qualifications. Other schools offer the Griggs educational programs in its full operation (as opposed to a section within a school) and fully adapt the Griggs philosophy and school practices.
