Meet our diverse team!
Meet our diverse team! Our staff comes from all around the world, and indeed it has to! This diversity helps us understand the challenges and positive effects that arise when people with different backgrounds work and thrive together.
Professionally, we have a highly educated staff with extensive experience in education and the IB system. All our teachers regularly participate in Professional Development organized by the IB, as well as other ongoing education and training. This way, we model lifelong learning for our students and ensure that the school stays ahead in the field’s development. Our teachers are caring and supportive adults who guide and mentor students in their academic and personal development.
