OUR CORE VALUES
What we stand for
We make it our priority to get to know each learner’s unique personality and living conditions. Our school is a safe place for learners where they receive more than just an education.
Caring
Care about the thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and rights not only of yourself but others. Listening to others, working together to achieve shared goals.
Accountability
Holding self and others responsible for actions. Accept consequences for your actions – apologise, ask for help, clean up your mess and think of others before you act. You are always responsible for how you act, regardless of how you feel.
“When you blame others, you give up your power to change.”
Respect
Treating others how you and they want to be treated.
Being respectful shows someone that they are valuable and important.
Excellence
“It is not being the best; it is doing your best”
Excellence is not an act, but a habit. “We are what we repeatedly do” – Aristotle
Excellence in education requires the input, and dedication of the teacher, student, and parents.
Our Language Approach
In a multilingual school like Academy of Excellence, learners must learn at least two languages. Which language to learn is not as important as the skill of learning a language.
We value and promote multilingualism. We want to encourage children to be proud of their mother tongue/home language.
