Guiding values and philosophy

Learning is a lifelong process of understanding concepts, acquiring knowledge and transdisciplinary skills, and transforming them into a lasting impact on the learner’s behavior and attitude.

We aim for our learner to be ethical, moral, empathetic, an analytical and logical thinker, inquirer, problem solver, risk taker, entrepreneur, independent and reflective self-learner, and internationally-minded citizen.

Learning is delivered in a safe, supportive, respectful, challenging, and rewarding environment of equal opportunities through experimenting, investigating, collaborating, reflecting, sharing, experiencing, and training.

The effect of learning is measured by a variety of formative and summative assessments, using qualitative and quantitative criteria.
