We develop thoughtful, world-connected leaders

We guide students aged 12-14 through a time of essential transformations, where autonomy and critical voice take centre stage. Through active learning methodologies, we foster communication, critical thinking, research and self-management skills, while making practical connections between their studies and the real world.

We promote an international and empathetic mindset, forming thoughtful young people committed to giving purpose and meaning to their lives. With an emphasis on intellectual challenge, we offer tools for inquiring into local, national and global issues, preparing our students to be creative thinkers and leaders of the future.
