Building global leaders with a transformative vision

At Upper Secondary, we prepare young people aged 15-17 to meet the challenges of an interconnected world. Through a constructivist approach underpinned by active pedagogy, we promote enquiry, critical thinking and collaborative learning, integrating the principles of the International Baccalaureate.

In addition, we deliver the Diploma Programme in the last two years of schooling, through which our students acquire a deep understanding of their environment, developing academic, socio-emotional and ethical competencies.

How do our students learn?
