We want each pupil to aspire to university-level qualifications and develop their talents and we shall provide every opportunity and encouragement through our personalized learning and broad based co-curriculum programme.
We want all pupils to realize their abilities as active pupils and harness their imagination to aim higher. Whether a pupil has a clear idea of what they want to be when they grow up, or there is a subject they enjoy and excel in, we work with them to develop their potential.
Regular pupils/parents/teachers consultations take place throughout the academic year to discuss progress, identify goals and targets for improvement and map out future needs. This is imperative for pupils to be engaged in their own agenda.
