We place each student in charge of their own learning and offer them:

  • a supportive mentor; 

  • useful resources and opportunities; and

  • our network of contacts.

Students and mentors meet once a week during the school day. Sessions are fifty minutes long and take place on school premises, though we do occasionally take field trips. Each pair researches, discusses, and plans projects around topics that fire the student's imagination. We've seen everything from film to footballers!

We see learning as an opportunity to explore existing passions, to discover new passions, and to build key skills in the process of each. To us, a successful relationship with learning is one that leaves a student curious, passionate, confident, self-aware, and eager to learn beyond the walls of their high school classroom. We hope that the skills which our students develop with us will instill lifelong interests in learning and aid them in their chosen paths in the years to follow.
