Our teachers are from all over the world. Our selection criteria for teachers are based on quality of experience, education and pastoral care.

We aim for all students to pass the EIKEN Grade 4 Test by Kindergarten graduation. We also aim for all first year primary students to pass the EIKEN pre-2 test, and by Primary graduation, pass the EIKEN pre-1 test.
