Academics
Students who choose Dwight International do so because we offer a holistic education, based on the IB curriculum, aimed at developing future leaders, entrepreneurs and responsible citizens.
At Dwight International we seek to challenge each student to discover and maximize their potential. We offer an excellent range of classes and levels. Our teachers are sought after by other institutions but they are committed to implement our vision, which is to develop students who excel academicall
y and are leaders in their communities. Our graduates will be sought after by the top universities and be known for the positive contributions they make in the community.
Whilst we are proud of the academic results of our students, there is so much more to education. We hope to better serve local and international students in the global community by implementing cross-cultural education in which international students are prepared to work in the western society and at the same time, western students are prepared to work in an Asian society. The rich diversity of backgrounds and experiences that our international students bring to the school facilitates the sharing of different perspectives amongst students. Students are actively encouraged to be critical of the world around them and recognize that each of them can make a difference.
