In 2002, Adventist College Preparatory Center (ACPC) was founded to provide part-time English Language tutoring for high school students and college-placement assistance for students interested in attending English-speaking universities. During the first year, the school provided tutoring to 30 students and college placement to 6 students. Throughout the following years, the student population increased and, in 2005, the English-language training was eventually integrated into an American curriculum high school. In 2005, the Academy had its first high school graduates—a class of three. In the fall of 2005, ACPC changed its name to Taipei Adventist Preparatory Academy or more commonly known as TAPA. The Taipei Adventist Preparatory Academy continued to grow throughout the years until, in 2012, it reached over 150 students. During this time TAPA had many successes. One of the most notable was the transition to becoming a 1:1 iPad school in the fall of 2011- the first in the Seventh-day Adventist school system (of over 7800 schools worldwide) and the first in Taiwan. After 10 years of service to the students and families of Taipei, TAPA changed its name once again to include a stronger statement of the mission and goals we have for our school in the future. We are excited to share that our name is now The Primacy Collegiate Academy (or “Primacy”) and that our logo has been updated to include symbols that directly relate to our school mission statement as well as incorporate a color the represents the newness of spring: green. Today, Primacy offers approximately 150 students an enriched, expanding academic program. Our fully functioning, transition-to-English-fluency training smoothly integrates into a traditional American high school curriculum. As educators, our passion is to provide a holistic, progressive 21st Century educational environment that includes not only academics, but also emphasis on the development of students’ characters through building healthy lifestyles, caring for others, and knowing God. We hope that through their experiences at our school, and opportunities both inside and outside of the classroom, our students develop habits that lead to success for them throughout their lives. A Primacy education is a distinct, holistic approach to learning. Education embodies much more than just the academic pursuit of knowledge. Complete education also includes physical, spiritual, and emotional elements. It’s when you combine the pursuit of knowledge with the physical, spiritual, and emotional that you develop a complete approach to learning. The fusion of these four elements is what sets the Primacy education apart from other educational philosophies. While Primacy does offer a score of possibilities to our students, academic achievement is a top priority. Rigor and relevance underscore our curriculum, and although our teacher’s main objective is to present our curriculum professionally, our teachers are skilled in making sure every student is afforded an equal chance to master the curriculum. Academic students of all levels can find a home at Primacy, as we aim to challenge students with Advanced Placement® courses, while at the same time assisting developing students in achieving their highest academic level. Part of a holistic Primacy education is to encourage students to live active and healthy lives. The Primacy staff has a clear understanding of the correlation between academic achievement and a healthy lifestyle. Exercise, good emotional balance, and being involved in extra-curricular activities, such as sports and clubs, allow students to work on developing their whole being, which in turn gives needed skills to balance the stresses of life. As a Christian educational institution, a major part of our philosophy is to care for others and know God. At Primacy, we work with our students to develop an understanding that all people are created equal, and should therefore be treated with respect. The values that make up this philosophy include mutual respect, caring for others, and acceptance of all people.

We are a new school that draws on a long and established history of educational excellence. The pioneering work of Frances Mary Buss, 160 years ago, in North London, paved the way for an exciting and inclusive movement in the education of young women. NLCS UK has gone on to build on this innovative approach to education and prides itself on its clear vision of academic excellence and passion for subject knowledge and integrity, as well as its holistic approach to all aspects of an exceptional education. Here at NLCS Jeju, we are building on these foundations to create an optimal environment for our community. If you were to ask current parents why they chose NLCS Jeju, they would tell you that the students here are cheerful, balanced, at ease with themselves and each other - yet excited and enthused by the challenges before them. They might add that we succeed in combining academic excellence with a wealth of co-curricular opportunities, all underpinned by a deep commitment to the individual needs and enthusiasms of each pupil. Whilst we enjoy excellent facilities in a prime location, it is our people that make our school a special place. Our staff embodies a wide range of experience and a wealth of enthusiasm. Our parents are tremendously supportive and contribute a huge amount of time and energy to supporting our activities and events. Our students throughout the School are a real delight to teach and have a genuine appetite for learning. If our ethos appeals to you and your son/daughter, then please contact us to find out more. Whilst we hope that our website provides valuable information, there is no substitute for visiting us only then will you truly feel what makes our school a special place to work and to learn. We are a school that prides itself on the ambitious education we deliver. In part, this is possible due to the inspiration we draw from our mother school, NLCS UK, and the important bond that has developed between the two institutions. We are fortunate that our relationship is genuine and close. We have benefited greatly from NLCS UK carrying out regular inspections and monitoring visits of our school, as well as interviewing and training all our new staff at NLCS UK. As the school has grown and developed, we have inevitably carved out our own identity and we are proud of how this is emulated in our aims which, whilst rooted in the pioneering work of NLCS UK, have been adjusted to fit our sense of what makes for a world-class, holistic, international education in Korea. The aims of our Junior School are to provide an ambitious educational program for all our students and to enable each one to develop academic confidence and independence in his or her learning. Our Junior School is a friendly and warm place for boys and girls aged 3 to 11 (Nursery – Year 6). The class sizes remain small to ensure quality interaction between students and teachers. Within this supportive community, the students absorb themselves in the fun and adventure of learning. Currently, we have 315 students, of which over 20% are international students from China, Japan, the UK, and New Zealand. Our highest priority is to maintain a team of outstanding teachers who will inspire and encourage each student. Students in the Junior School follow a curriculum based on that of NLCS UK. This is an academically ambitious program of learning where our teachers create an environment in which children can actively discover new skills, knowledge, and understanding. We aim to develop internationally-minded young people with an understanding of their responsibility to each other and the wider community. To promote positive attitudes and raise self-esteem, we hold weekly Celebration Assemblies for the whole school. In addition, every child in the Junior School, from Years 3-6 belongs to a House, just as they do in the Senior School. As part of a House team, students learn to work with one another, supporting and leading different ages, as well as engaging with the fun of the school-wide House competition. The Senior School provides a rigorous academic education taught by highly qualified, knowledgeable, and inspiring teachers through lively, active lessons. Students are challenged to think for themselves and to develop their minds independently. In the Senior School, we pride ourselves on working closely with families and students to ensure that all children have high academic aspirations and achieve the success needed to ensure they can enter the foremost universities worldwide. The curriculum at NLCS Jeju is based largely on that of NLCS London. In Key Stage 3 (years 7 to 9) departments write their programs of study that aim to provide students with the knowledge base and skills to take the subjects further but also to develop a love of learning for that subject. In Key Stage 4 (years 10 to 11), students work towards their IGCSE course, and in Key Stage 5 (years 12 to 13) students follow the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma. North London Collegiate School Jeju was founded in 2011 as a Boarding and Day school. We are located on the amazing island of Jeju, in South Korea, but our proud heritage is from the United Kingdom, wherein 1850 education pioneer Frances Mary Buss established the North London Collegiate School. NLCS Jeju has become, in a short period, a reference for excellent international education in Asia, providing an aspirational academic education taught by highly qualified, knowledgeable, and inspiring teachers through interactive, thought-provoking lessons. The strategic geographical location of this island makes NLCS Jeju a suitable school for students from Korea, China, Japan, Russia, and the rest of Asia. Ours was the first international school to be opened as part of the Global Education City on Jeju Island, which is becoming the center of English education in Korea and the educational hub of Asia. We exist to give our students an exceptional platform for life after school. We are immensely proud to say that our students obtain places at the most prestigious universities around the world, and we are confident you will too.

Welcome to Wichita Collegiate School. More than five decades ago, several courageous families, dissatisfied with their children's education, banded together and started Wichita Collegiate School. Their dream for a better school lives on today. The mission of Wichita Collegiate School is to educate today's students to be tomorrow's leaders through a diverse and caring community with passionate teachers and an inspiring curriculum. Collegiate's founding emphasis was on academic excellence in a college preparatory program. It provided individual attention to and recognition of each student in a low student-teacher ratio environment. It underscored the importance of the development of sound personal values for responsible citizenship. Collegiate has always remained committed to providing the highest quality educational environment while embracing necessary changes that have made learning more effective and more meaningful for our students. WCS offers a rigorous college preparatory environment where academics come first. Daily after school tutorials are a hallmark of the Middle and Upper School schedules. Our Upper School curriculum offers more Advanced Placement classes than any other school in the region. The culture at WCS is one of caring and respect. Helping others begins in the classroom with our youngest students and continues through high school as our students reach out to the community. Our students learn this not because hours are required but because our students love giving back to their community. Wichita Collegiate School is committed to academic excellence. We strive to provide innovative and challenging educational programs to prepare students for higher education and productive and personally fulfilling lives. Our commitment to academic excellence includes an accelerated curriculum, opportunities for advanced-level courses for students who desire greater depth in a subject, and a focus on finding the optimum college placement for each of our graduates. Our focus is on the individual student, and our goal is to inspire each student to do his or her best. This is facilitated by small classes, an "active learning" environment that combines hands-on experiences with learning by doing, and close relationships between our faculty and students. Experienced educators designed Wichita Collegiate School's academic approach and curriculum from Preschool through Grade 12. Our program depends on careful sequencing, avoids unnecessary duplication, and ensures broad coverage of traditional subjects. Students at each level are fully prepared for the next level, ensuring a well-rounded student who can discover hidden aptitudes and passions. Wichita Collegiate School provides a technologically integrated and innovative environment in which students connect, communicate, collaborate, and create. The Collegiate classroom incorporates age-appropriate technology in every student's hands to streamline workflow and maximize hands-on learning. Our students gain skills, knowledge, and self-confidence through their use of technology and become digitally literate citizens. Wichita Collegiate School also has Innovation Labs for both the middle and upper schools, providing students with hands-on learning opportunities to use technology, machines, and creative materials to research, diagnose and design creative solutions to real-world problems, better-preparing children to be productive global citizens. When a student has been identified with a learning difference, we create an individual learning plan with targeted accommodations. Examples of accommodations include using a calculator, providing a reader or recording for quizzes and exams, using a scribe, oral testing, extended time on tests, testing in a quiet room, and allowing students to use books on tape. WCS also has a fee-based Learning Lab program on campus, providing private tutors that meet during school hours to help students achieve academic success. They help with specific skill-building as in Alphabetic Phonics and provide classroom support for homework preparation, study skills and strategies, and exam preparation. Classroom teachers are trained and know providing accommodations and working with a variety of learning differences. Classroom teachers and enhancement teachers follow the Individual Learning Plans and evaluate each student's progress throughout the school year. We have had such fantastic success with our two children in the program. Our teachers' and tutor's attention to detail is phenomenal and have left no stone unturned when it comes to our children's accommodations, learning plans, tutoring sessions, and after school tutorials. We are so very grateful to Collegiate for offering this assistance to learning different children! WCS is a school where it is as cool to be a musician to be an athlete. Students do not have to choose between athletics, academics, and the arts because they can do it all. WCS students are encouraged to become involved in multiple activities and discover their passions.

We have earned this reputation because we believe in the power of a promise. We see it in our students, ages three through grade 12, in our Lower, Middle, and Upper Schools. We see it on our campus, nestled on 34 acres near downtown Little Rock, within sight of the historic state capitol. And we see it in you.

Collegiate is divided into Lower School (Kindergarten-Grade 4), Middle School (Grades 5-8), and Upper School (Grades 9-12). Each division has its administrative head and core faculty. Many faculty members teach in more than one division of the School. The students and faculty enjoy a small-school environment's advantages while benefiting from the stimulation a college preparatory school can provide. The atmosphere at Collegiate is shaped by the close interaction of the student body and a sense of community within the School. Collegiate is a founding member of Interschool, a consortium of eight independent schools working cooperatively to develop programs and activities involving students and teachers from the participating schools. Programs sponsored by Interschool include an annual College Night for juniors and their parents, the tenth-grade trip to Frost Valley, and meetings of special-interest groups to exchange ideas and organize events. The Interschool member schools are Brearley, Browning, Chapin, Collegiate, Dalton, Nightingale-Bamford, Spence, and Trinity. From Kindergarten to 12th grade, our boys' curiosity, energy, and passion radiate throughout the School. We expect our students to take their academic responsibilities seriously but to possess sufficient humility so that they can laugh and not take themselves too seriously. We expect those very same classrooms to be defined by respectfulness and civility. We aim to be a community that strives for its students to seek academic and personal excellence.
