ESSENCE OF OUR BROAD,
EXPERIENTIAL PROGRAMME
INQUIRY-BASED
LEARNING
Our approach to education centers on students’ inquiries. By prioritizing investigation, we enhance their capacity to retain information, foster fruitful dialogues, and empower them to take responsibility for their own learning. By engaging in inquiry-based learning, students benefit from interdisciplinary lessons, hone their creative thinking skills, and arrive at more sophisticated solutions.
REAL WORLD INSIGHTS FOR LIFELONG SUCCESS
Alcuin believes in the power of bringing local community members into the classroom to connect students with the real world. Professionals are invited to present their roles and emphasize the importance of individuals in a community. Our goal is to help your child build a portfolio of educational experiences that will highlight their strengths and help provide direction for further learning.

OPPORTUNITIES
FOR INDIVIDUAL
GROWTH
At Alcuin, our supportive academic culture allows students to investigate their world and take charge of their learning at their own pace and interest.
RIGOROUS, AND
PERSONALIZED
EDUCATION
Rigorous and personalized education provide students with a challenging and engaging educational experience that is tailored to their unique strengths, interests, and learning needs.
LEARNING ENGAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY
Student learning is a joint partnership between student, parents and educator. Alcuin uses Seesaw, an online platform to facilitate engagement. Teachers can empower students to create, reflect, share, and collaborate. Students “show what they know” using photos, videos, drawings, text, PDFs, and links. It’s simple to get student work in one place and share with families.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE BEST
ABOUT ATTENDING YOUR SCHOOL?
I love so many things about Alcuin! The teachers are the best in the world – they have helped me to feel confident and happy. Genius hour is so much fun because we picked our own project to work on. I also love having a little buddy at the pre-school downstairs.
