Truly excellent education is about developing a passion for life-long learning and a capability for independent thinking. IB learners strive to become inquirers, knowledgeable, thinkers, communicators, principled, open-minded, caring, risk-takers, balanced and reflective and our confident and articulate students are encouraged to discover interests that extend beyond the classroom. In the pursuit of the highest academic standards through our IB programmes, we will provide a caring and supportive atmosphere, which will allow children to thrive academically, socially and emotionally with each individual talent being nurtured and celebrated. With 65 different nationalities on campus, internationalism is at the heart of our school and we celebrate this through the use of home languages, celebrations and learning that acknowledges gender, linguistic and cultural perspectives.
