Personal Development Curriculum

We have a vision for a Remarkable Personal Development curriculum to build and develop on each student's character and aspirations to support their academic and personal success.  Students will gain the tools and language to make informed decisions; explore issues relevant to society and develop the values, skills, attitudes and knowledge to become successful young adults.

Be Unusually Brave

Students will be challenged to be brave through exposure to a variety of new experiences; encounters and competitions which will support their personal development and help to create lasting memories. 

Discover What's Possible

Students will develop the values, skills, attitudes, and knowledge during their time at the Academy to become successful young adults. 

Push the Limits

Students will gain the tools and language to drive their passion and ambitions towards a successful future. We resolve to overcome any self-imposed limits.

Be Big-Hearted 

Students personal development will be framed within the local and global context and community. 

Personal Development | Drop Down Days 2023 - 2024

During the year, the academy will run drop down days to allow students to explore particular topics further for longer periods of time which allows students to experience the topics in greater depth which makes the content for engaging and allows students to consolidate their knowledge. Students can also be curious and inquisitive as more time is allowed to ask meaningful questions. These days can be over half a day or for an entire day. 

We have listed some of the drop down days that student will experience during this academic year:
