Onboarding
Welcome to The Beacon School!
The Beacon School is a school that is focused on growing our students, a school where an understanding of Filipino culture is at the core of the school, promoted in the learning journey while at the same time the IB curriculum guides us to look with open eyes to understand the world we live in. Beyond that is the determination to build citizens that will be positive role models both here in the Philippines or for wherever an alumni may be.
Each day on campus, there is an incredible sense of belonging to a family, the Beacon family; a focus on creating for each student a deep sense of belonging, of being connected to those around them and their unlimited value. That feeling of family extends beyond our gates, to those in our wider school community who work to support and encourage our students. We are thankful to have a wonderful group of parents in our BPA who give freely of their time, our nurturing teachers and our supportive non-academic staff who know each student as a valued individual.
Our educational programs focus on discovering and nourishing individual potential and inspiring each one of our students to achieve their personal best. Thus, as a school, we have chosen the IB programmes because we feel they best support our students in developing the needed inquiry-based learning skills essential to successfully navigate their world: to become knowledgeable, to collaborate, to develop critical thinking skills, to hone reflection skills and be able to apply these as they contribute to the world around them. Underpinning our academic programs is a strong focus on developing well-being and resilience – certainly important for our rapidly changing world.
I invite you to explore our website to gain a sense of Beacon students and the Beacon Community. Whether you are looking for options for your children’s education, or are an alumni reflecting on your time at The Beacon School or are interested in teaching at the school, or for other reasons, we welcome your visit and encourage you to be in further contact with us. We look forward to meeting you!
