As an IB continuum school and a member of the Inspired Education Group, we have a clear philosophy and mission. The International School of Ticino is committed to providing an excellent international education. We value the potential, character and unique talent of every individual. Through an inquiry-based approach our students become life-long learners and creative thinkers. Our innovative pedagogy encourages our students to respect each other, to respect the environment, to communicate through active dialogue and to create the foundations of a collaborative society. We achieve this within a safe, nurturing environment with a strong sense of community at its heart.
IB MISSION STATEMENT
The International Baccalaureate® aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.
To this end the organization works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment.
These programmes encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.
INSPIRED EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY
Inspired sets a new standard in private education with a dedication to excellence permeating every aspect of the school. Integrating innovative, challenging and enriching academic, performing arts and sports programmes, Inspired’s students leave with outstanding academic results, a love of learning, confidence and a firm value system that arms them to embrace the challenges life throws at them in their future endeavours.
INSPIRED APPROACH TO EDUCATION
Lateral thinking, comprehension and innovative application of skills and concepts form the three pillars of the Inspired approach to education.
A child’s education is the single most important consideration for any parent. At Inspired we believe that it is an individual’s total educational experience that instils the knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and values that they will carry with them for life.
We believe that this set of knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and values, instilled by education, will form the basis of how we approach the future. These are the foundations on which we build and plan our lives. The effects are long-term and the consequences far-reaching.
At Inspired we instil a sense of pride, responsibility, honesty and integrity in our students. We believe education is the catalyst for personal growth, development and achievement.
