is "learn beyond curriculum" correct?

Hi,

My question is how to express that a person finished, for example, 8th grade physics curriculum and while was still studying in 8th-grade started learning stuff that is meant for 9th graders.

I though of :

He was learning beyond physics curriculum.

Is that correct and what other suggestion do you have?

  • I woudn't say 'beyond' is wrong, but much more colloquial is to say 'ahead of' or 'outside'.

In AmE you often hear of students doing work "above their grade level."
