The independent school welcomes students from over 50 nationalities (just 53% are locals), fostering a globally-minded community whose focus is on cultural and language exchanges and a quality all-round education.

Small class sizes (average 12) provide students with the personalised attention they need to succeed, while interactive “gamified” lesson plans, access to new technologies, and highly qualified academic staff make learning fun.
