Compliance with Federal Standards
All of RIS's educational programs fully comply with the Federal State Educational Standards (FSES), ensuring high-quality education that meets modern requirements. We actively integrate technologies and approaches developed within the framework of FSES to maintain relevance and effectiveness in our educational practices.

Methodological Foundation of Primary Education
The methodological foundation for primary education is based on modern programs recommended by the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation, such as "School of the 21st Century" and "School of Russia (Enhanced)." These programs incorporate innovative advanced learning technologies that promote logical thinking, support individuality, and foster self-development in children.

Textbooks include tasks of varying complexity, from basic to creative and exploratory. Students actively engage in acquiring and applying knowledge, working with diverse texts and information sources, and developing skills in independent search, planning, and evaluating their activities. Emphasis is placed on teamwork, task distribution, and assessing overall results.

Developmental Learning
The school implements elements of developmental learning based on the systems of D.B. Elkonin, V.V. Davydov, and L.V. Zankov. These methods develop students' analytical and unconventional thinking abilities, contributing to their comprehensive development.

Learning Process and Assessment
Within the educational process, route sheets are used to clearly outline the tasks set before students. Students maintain portfolios reflecting their achievements and progress.

Educational Materials
RIS uses only the best educational materials that meet contemporary requirements and contribute to a high-quality educational process.
