For those who want academic excellence and character development
We aim to develop the whole individual integrating academic and life skills to enable our students to excel in an increasingly competitive world and to be effective members and leaders in their communities. Our approach for character development recognizes that values, life skills and subject related skills need to be used concurrently, in order to become part of the internal make up of students to the point that they can apply them in different situations and scenarios in life.
Values that we aim to develop are respect, honesty, empathy, fairness, caring, responsibility for self and others, citizenship, cultural identity, openness to other cultures and rationalization. Life skills include critical thinking and decision making, interpersonal communication, managing self and healthy relationships, maintaining a healthy life style, cooperation and team work.
All the subjects deal with character and life skill development but specifically, Health and Career Planning, Social Studies and Islamic Education highlight these areas. Our teaching methods are instrumental and the overall school environment provides the required role model.
