School Ethos and Philosophy
Although the principal aim of our school is to provide pupils with a broad and intellectually demanding environment, there are many other areas which are also emphasised. As an international institution which educates children from different ethnic, national and religious backgrounds, it is our mission to instil a sense of racial and cultural harmony in all classes. From the youngest ages children are taught about the most essential components of human nature: independence without selfishness, inner strength with compassion, and a tolerant, open-minded attitude towards others at all times. Furthermore, due to our small class sizes, all our staff are able to focus their attention on each individual pupil’s educational, social and personal needs.
