Would Nexus School be suitable for my child?

Nexus is a learning focused school, empowering learners through the Nexus Way. The community encourages its learners to embrace diversity and to be open-minded so that they are prepared for the challenges ahead as future global leaders. Relationships, Innovation, Inclusion, and Mindsets – these are the four elements that make the Nexus Way, which guides the Nexus community.

Mindset

Nexus believes that developing a set of general competencies and a positive mindset underpins academic success as well as happiness and personal growth. Developing children as effective learners requires paying attention to developing their attitudes, skills, strategies, and be­haviors as well as their content knowledge and academic skills. Nexus balances academic demands with an emphasis on growing good citizens. The school helps its learners  become self-aware and to develop the skills for good decision-making.

Relationship

As learning is the focus for everything the school does, children at Nexus are referred to as learners. Furthermore Nexus emphasises that its teachers develop a learning focused relationship "a relationship between teacher and learner, where both the teacher and learner want to work together and know how to work together on the learning".

Inclusion

Nexus believes that children benefit from diversity and that all children deserve an excellent, child-centered education. Our inclusive admission policy means that learners are widely varied in abilities, skills and needs. Some learners will be working on skills at Mastering level (A*) and others at Pre-foundation (G). Therefore Nexus designs learning experiences, using a range of differentiation strategies, to ensure all learners achieve their best and are challenged appropriately.

Innovation

The recognition of Nexus International School by Apple Inc. as an Apple Distinguished School highlights its success as an innovative and compelling learning environment that engages students and provides tangible evidence of academic accomplishment. Students at Nexus are called ‘learners’ for a reason. They are not passive recipients or consumers of content they are actively involved in the process of finding, creating and understanding content.
