Curriculum

We believe that every child is a born explorer, artist, or entrepreneur. We respect the unique and individual characteristics of each child. We support them to discover their interests and desires, and we encourage them to challenge themselves, so that they continue to improve themselves during the learning process.

Our courses include all elements of the daily environment and interpersonal social contacts, because those areas impact the learning and development of children. Our curriculum is gradually developed and improved through positive interaction between the teachers and the students, and between the students and their environment.

Learning is life!

Learning is a child's life. We encourage children to learn for life, and use a variety of academic knowledge such as mathematics, science, robotics, coding, and social studies to solve real-life problems, to meet their own needs and gain the ability to take care of themselves. This makes the learning process meaningful, joyful, and a rich and rewarding experience.

Learning is work!

Learning is to let children learn how to work, and work is the process by which they learn to solve problems. We cooperatively create a learning community while solving problems, carrying out creative learning, and letting the children experience the obligations and responsibilities of different community members.

Educational assessment is an effective way to respect each child's developmental differences. Assessment continuously encourages effective and high-quality interaction between students and teachers, and to maintain the student’s advantage in developing their ability to learn.

School assessment is the cornerstone to encourage the orderly and high-quality development of the school. Assessment is a tool that supports the school to identify strengths and challenges, then to make changes to provide innovative solutions in the school's program, operations and management.

We turn our open-minded attitudes into exciting and challenging actions. We fully utilize the advantages of being open to multiple languages and cultures. Our students become proficient at using technology to meet their curiosity and desire for knowledge. They learn in an atmosphere of continuous exploration and discovery.

By effectively and efficiently managing our time and space, we establish and maintain our learning order. A big part of our learning philosophy is to teach the students the skill of self-management, so they can develop the enduring benefits of self-discipline that will benefit them throughout their lives.

We believe strongly in the power of co-creation. Each one of us provides an indispensable contribution to the learning community. Every person takes responsibility in all matters, whether they are big or small. We use our wisdom, always try our best. We maximize our potential by working cooperatively to achieve goals.
