Primary Olympiad


About the Primary Olympiad

The Primary Olympiad consists of the English, Maths and Science Olympiads. It is a national level certification program and competition for young learners.

The English Olympiad focuses on spelling and grammar. Enrolled students receive a spelling book, a grammar book and a school dictionary (only for level 5) as preparatory materials. The Maths Olympiad focuses on arithmetic and geometry. Enrolled students receive a maths book, an activity book and a Mathematical dictionary (only for level 5) as preparatory materials. The Science Olympiad focuses on science and environmental studies. Enrolled students receive a science book and an environmental studies book as preparatory materials.

Preparation and Materials
Enrolled students receive Cambridge University Press books as program materials. The books are aligned with the school curriculum. Students can therefore use the provided books as additional practice material for topics in the school curriculum.

Levels
The competition has five levels. The Primary Olympiad is for young learners in standards 1 through 5. Standard 1 students enroll in Level 1, standard 2 students in Level 2 and so on.

Qualifying Rounds
The program culminates with a City-round written competition. Students qualifying in the City-round compete against each other in the National-round competition.

Registering for the Program
If your school is participating in the Primary Olympiad, then as a student you need to contact your class teacher. If your school is not a participating school, then please request the principal to get in touch with the organizers of the Primary Olympiad.
