At Legacy, the combination of our beliefs, values and aspirations inspire us to strive to be a progressive institution that employs a unique combination of high academic standards, innovative methods and best practices to empower our students to develop as life-long learners, and encourage them to become the following:
Inquirers & Thinkers
The intrinsic sense of curiosity in a student is nurtured to promote learning through sustained inquiry, analysis and reasoning. Students learn to identify and approach complex problems with logical progression and make rational decisions. This enables students to enjoy learning in a natural manner – thus enabling them to become creative, independent thinkers and learners.
Demonstrators of Knowledge
The Students are encouraged to understand and explore various theories, practices and concepts in a collaborative learning environment. We allow them to discuss, debate and learn by sharing their perspectives to acquire a more current understanding of a broad range of topics across various subject areas.
Open-minded
In addition to their own, our students are taught to also understand, respect and appreciate the opinions, perspectives, beliefs, values and culture of others. This allows them to seek, understand, assess and appreciate a wide range of viewpoints. It enables them to become more tolerant, cultured and knowledgeable about the increasingly diverse and globalized world that we live in.
Balanced Perspectives
Our students are encouraged to give thoughtful consideration to their own knowledge, experiences and learning. They are taught to assess and understand their strengths and limitations in order to support and advance their learning and personal development. They learn to recognise the relationship between their intellectual, physical, emotional and sociological needs, and find a balance between them to achieve their personal well-being.
Confident Individuals
In school, various approaches are adopted and platforms are given to enable students to organize their thoughts and articulate / express themselves confidently and appropriately.
Risk-takers
Students are prepared to successfully manage change, cope with uncertainty and challenge every opportunity with creativity, knowledge, confidence, integrity, respect and humility. They understand their aptitudes, believe in their abilities, form new ideas and explore unchartered waters.
Leaders
Students are important stakeholders and they play an integral role in the growth and development of our school. They are presented with several opportunities to explore and nurture their leadership skills across the various realms in our school – academic, co-scholastic and governance. Their participation and involvement allows them to learn to plan, organize, communicate and work in a team in varying capacities towards collective objectives or goal.
Reason & Respect
Students are shown and made to learn to demonstrate compassion, empathy, civility, honesty and integrity at all times. They are honed to be ethical and just; to always show respect for others and to take responsibility for their own actions.
Service Oriented
Students are encouraged to make a personal commitment to service and to make a positive difference in the lives of others. The aim is to mould our students to become citizens of the world who will recognize the commonality and interdependence of our humanity, and who will endeavour to contribute positively towards the attainment of peace and unity.
