Is it academic results alone that can get your child into a good university? What other qualities do they need to help them to equip themselves for the future?
While schools may tend to be exam result-oriented SIS has a more balanced focus. The PTA is pleased to hold a parent education evening at which the school presents to you what student leadership opportunities are open to our students and how these can help them in their personal development. This briefing will give you the information you need to discuss with your teenagers and to explore and encourage their participation
Values in Action is the term we use for all the opportunities accessible to our students to help them to become the person they want to be. We value our academic curriculum but there are other skills that students need to develop. The opportunities open to students are numerous and vary every year. Leadership takes many forms and is a fundamental skill that we develop in our young people.
This Education Evening is also an opportunity for our students to share with you the opportunities they have had experienced and how they have developed their skills to become leaders.
