Our academic programme strives to equip students with the skills, knowledge, and understanding necessary for the 21st century.

Starting from Grade 1, we run an iPad 1:1 learning project and technology is an important aspect of our school.

In the Elementary and Middle School, children regularly use their iPad within lessons through a blended approach where we feel this adds value to teaching and learning and not merely to replace traditional methods.

In the High School, iPads are replaced by laptops.

This is an exciting time to join our community as we expand our school programme year after year.

This will include an extension of our current premises, built to meet the growing needs of our School and developments in new educational research.
