Parent FAQ

Does the school require parents to participate in religious activities?

The school is Christian and includes spiritual education in its philosophy, but parents are not required to participate in religious activities. Respect for the school's background is sufficient; during interviews, you can express agreement with the whole-person education concept.

My daughter is not yet very independent in self-care. Will that affect the interview?

The school report indicates that some students need improvement in self-care, so this is an area of focus. During the interview, you can honestly acknowledge the current situation and emphasize your willingness to work with the school to develop this skill.

Does the school have high expectations for STEM? Do we need to learn coding beforehand?

The school's STEM education is integrated into General Studies and gradually introduces engineering design processes; prior coding knowledge is not required. However, parents can encourage exposure to science toys or simple experiments to cultivate inquiry interest.

How does the school support learning differences? My daughter learns at a slower pace.

The school has a learning support room and an inclusive education policy, and uses small-class teaching to cater to differences. Teachers use questioning techniques and tiered assignments to help. Parents are encouraged to communicate with the school proactively.
