Philosophy and Objectives

 

SCHOOL PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES

The following is a statement of our beliefs and aspirations.

Uplands School is a multicultural, multiracial and multinational community whose aim it is to promote the School Motto:

“RESPECT FOR SELF; RESPECT FOR OTHERS”.

The School believes that this is a motto worth striving for, and that care, good conduct, cooperation and understanding are of prime importance. The School understands that such a community must be free of all unfair discriminatory practices.

The School aims to foster a love of learning which will nurture our human faculties: intellectual, aesthetic, emotional and physical. We believe that happy, well-balanced individuals who take strength from our community will make an invaluable contribution to the world in which we live.
