Values and Vision

St. Andrew’s School seeks to engender a sense of personal responsibility and self-worth in its students. The students are constantly challenged in order to bring out their full potential, and the culture of the school itself expresses a love of learning and a sense of appreciation for diversity.

Teachers at St. Andrew’s School are encouraged to create a safe and comfortable learning environment in which students can feel free to ask questions. The practice of creating discussions and interactive sessions, rather than reading directly from textbooks is the preferred method at St Andrew’s School. An integrated approach that combines multiple subjects together to show their relevance and interconnectivity is preferred at St. Andrew’s School.
