More often than not, the biggest limit
a child has to learning is imposed by the adults in his/her world.
We now know that the brain has unlimited capacity to develop beyond
what we ever thought was possible - especially at an early age. If
we take the time to develop our teachers with a skillset that helps
them identify each child's uniqueness, we believe the child's
development can be accelerated.
Our model
thus aims to give children the best start in life by:
-
Employing top academic talent and ensuring they
keep their skills fresh, relevant and up-to-date
-
Promoting diversity: we want teachers who have
worked in banks and have built houses; teachers who are writers
and artists, because we know that nothing can replace life
experience. We believe in diversity in every aspect - from
cultures to skillsets to teachers' unique journeys to becoming
educator
-
Promoting continuous learning & access to top content:
we are on a learning journey throughout our lives and we want to
encourage students to always be aware of their capacity to grow
and develop beyond what we could even give them.
-
Providing a safe & beautiful learning environment:
schools no longer need to be a place of endless
corridors and desks in straight rows. As our way of teaching
changes, we want to create spaces that excite children and
energies them.
