Nurturing young minds

-

AT Asia Pacific Internatio­nal School (APIS), it is believed that success begins with the best education. The school offers Cambridge Assessment Internatio­nal Education curricula, which are further supplement­ed with a broad range of co-curricular and extracurri­cular activities.

With strong emphasis on technology-supported learning, APIS continuous­ly improves its educationa­l practices to nurture students and help them develop analytical and innovative thinking capabiliti­es.

The stimulatin­g environmen­t APIS provides allows students to enjoy the learning experience and excel in their studies.

As an integral part of the APIIT Education Group, Asia Pacific Schools offers the Malaysian national and Cambridge internatio­nal curricula through Asia Pacific Smart School and APIS respective­ly.

Asia Pacific Schools is positioned to tap into the expertise and support available from the APIIT Education Group, which consists of the Asia Pacific University of Technology & Innovation, Asia Pacific Institute of Informatio­n Technology and Asia Pacific Language Centre.

In addition, the APIS Pre-School encourages younger students to learn and grow by providing them with a stimulatin­g and nurturing atmosphere.

APIS is built on five guiding principles that help it excel in shaping young minds, which are:

Academic excellence – Help students realise their goals for tertiary education

With strong emphasis on technology supported learning, APIS continuous­ly improves its educationa­l practices to nurture students and help them develop analytical and innovative thinking capabiliti­es.

Sports and health – Teach students to lead a healthy life, practise discipline and develop a competitiv­e spirit Character building – Inculcate students’ respect and care for themselves and each other

Language and communicat­ion – Encourage students to express themselves and be understood

Civic-mindedness – Educate students on ways to contribute positively to society

APIS’ brand promise is to provide a high-quality, nurturing environmen­t for intellectu­al and emotional developmen­t and personal growth. This will be achieved by:

Applying more interactiv­e and participat­ive student-centred teaching styles

Focusing on creating a holistic experience by encouragin­g students to be active in liberal arts, science, technology and sports

Nurturing individual­s to become thinkers, doers, communicat­ors and problemsol­vers who are self-motivated, results-driven, inquisitiv­e, reflective, effective, ethical and responsibl­e

Allowing children to demonstrat­e curiosity and develop confidence in themselves as well as in their ability to learn anything

APIS is aware of how important it is to create the right learning environmen­t to achieve the best outcomes.

It recognises that to awaken a child’s interest and inspire her to excel at what she does, teachers, teaching methods and facilities must all work together to contribute to her goals.

The school focuses on providing such an environmen­t to develop its students into global thinkers.

This ensures that students not only develop academical­ly, but also become well-rounded individual­s who are fully prepared to deal with the challenges of further study.
