INTERMEDIATE PHASE
Grades 4–6 — Purposeful, engaging learning that deepens reading, writing and problem-solving through projects, labs, and structured practice—building independence, teamwork, and solid study habits.
Intermediate PHASE
Lakewood International Academy’s intermediate phase offers a dynamic, multicultural environment where learners thrive. Small classes ensure each learner receives individual attention, while group work enhances collaboration and social skills. This personalised approach plays a key role in fostering the social, emotional, and academic well-being of every learner. At Lakewood, no child is ever lost in a large school setting, and we ensure that every learner is known, supported and appropriately challenged.
Our technology-enhanced learning environment empowers learners by focusing on their unique potential, encouraging both logical and creative thinking based on their individual strengths. We believe in nurturing curiosity, promoting independent problem-solving, and delivering a hands-on, practical curriculum that equips learners with essential skills for lifelong success.
At Lakewood International Academy, we prepare learners not only for academic success, but also for the wider responsibilities of life, making Lakewood a compelling choice for families seeking a holistic, forward-looking education.
The classrooms, studios, laboratories and centres all form part of our school’s beautiful architecture which incorporates the necessary sporting facilities.
