At Kingston, we want our students to fully develop all areas and fulfill their potential in a happy learning environment. We aim for each of our students to have a well-rounded education and to develop a love of learning that will last their whole life long. We believe that parents play a vital role in their child's learning and we work closely with our families to help their children prepare to face the challenges of the 21st century. Academic excellence, the belief in a healthy body as well as a healthy mind, dedicated staff, and caring families all contribute to Kingston continuing to be a high-quality school. To provide a challenging and stimulating environment that nurtures the balanced development of students who, in their own unique way, grow into active and responsible world citizens.
Our Objectives: To provide a learning environment where English and Putonghua are the languages of instruction, To provide a quality education based on the principles of Internationalism, To provide our students with essential skills, attitudes, and knowledge along with the opportunities to apply them, To provide a safe and supportive learning environment where students can develop their own inquiries, To implement a program of inquiry that encourages students to take action, To provide opportunities for students to work independently and collaboratively while solving problems and meeting challenges, To promote respect for the beliefs and perspectives of others, To foster a sense of community among students, parents, teachers through open communication and cooperation.
Kingston International School offers an IB-PYP bilingual (English/Putonghua) program for students aged 1 to 11 years of age. Kingston has three campuses - the Kindergarten and Children's Centre which houses our early year's program for children 1 to 4 years of age, a Lower Primary campus for students from Year 1 to Year 3, and an Upper Primary campus for students from Year 4 to Year 6. Although we have 3 campuses we are still a small school with a community feel. We maintain small class sizes and have an English and a Putonghua class teacher for each class.
Kingston has been an authorized IB-PYP school since 2004. The philosophy of the PYP is infused in all aspects of our school. Teachers receive IB-PYP training and ongoing support from our PYP coordinators.
At Kingston, we value teachers who are passionate, enthusiastic and true lifelong learners. Teachers that thrive in a small school environment and value teamwork both in the classroom and as a whole school are ideal Kingston teachers. Our teaching team is comprised of English and Putonghua teachers working side by side in the classroom so strong interpersonal skills and evidence of a high level of collaborative planning are essential.
