Students typically start Junior School at ten to eleven years of age. At this stage, links are being made between different areas of the curriculum to learning in the context of real life. Creative and critical thinking are encouraged in our Junior Secondary. Subjects are also becoming more specialized as students begin to develop interests in specific subject areas and extracurricular skills like sports, arts, gardening and music.
Success School has put a mentoring program in place to support students socially, emotionally and morally. Students are taught to demonstrate decision-making skills and responsible behaviors in personal, school, and community contexts. They are also encouraged to develop social-awareness and interpersonal skills, establish and maintain positive relationships and develop self-management skills to achieve success in both school and in their personal lives. The mentoring and counseling caters mainly for Primary, Junior and Senior school students, and is done both in groups and individually.
We aim to provide the best possible education in a supportive and disciplined environment so that students may discover their full potential and prepare for adult life. We have high expectations of what can be achieved and the key to our success is a purposeful community where learning is stimulating and enjoyable and is the focus of everything we do.
Our aims are very straightforward; to be a well-led, inclusive school where quality teaching enables everyone to learn and to fulfil their potential. Our team of outstanding teachers all work together to deliver the best possible education for our students. We can only achieve our aims by working closely with parents and your support is an essential ingredient in your child’s success at the school. We work in partnership with parents to recognise success and to share and solve problems.
