Annually, counselors visit universities located in different parts of the world and conduct interviews with graduates who have enrolled in universities there.They aim to gather information on what support was helpful and identify any additional support needed. This process allows them to update their knowledge and advice, getting closer to providing perfect guidance!

This school has won the second position in the World Robotics Competition!
During a school tour, I witnessed students around 10 years old manipulating small balls with chips attached, using iPads. It was too high-tech for me to fully grasp, but the classes seemed cutting-edge!This school starts teaching DT Design Technology from Junior school for both campuses.

The school is managed by the board of governors and it has a high retention rates among teaching staff. Most staff stay teaching in school for many years, ensuring continuity in teaching and learning, positive relationship with students and parents, and reflecting positive workplace environment and well-being among staff.

I was impressed by the meticulous consideration given to details, such as using earth-coloured toys to avoid overstimulating preschoolers with flashy colours._Students participate in events related to volunteering and donations, and they learn responsibility through various roles and duties. It seems there are many opportunities to be recognised for their efforts. Such experiences can build confidence through a variety of successes!
