Global Citizenship
Training our students to be their best self for a better world implies the need for a strong programme that supports global citizenship and cultural competence. At ASA, we are committed to developing global citizens with the perspective, skills, passions, understanding and desire to take action and bring solutions locally to the global issues that challenge our world today, and in the future.
Service Learning (K-10)
As an International Baccalaureate continuum school, we build opportunities for meaningful action as an integral part of our curriculum, seamlessly woven into the educational experience. Our curriculum empowers students to apply their classroom learning to real-world situations, and foster a deep understanding of the relevance and impact of their studies.In addition to curriculum driven student action, all students in secondary school are engaged in standalone Service Learning projects that address a variety of global issues while fostering connections with local communities and promoting intercultural understanding. These projects range from promoting education and the welfare of minority groups to advocating for fairness towards nature and are meant to enable students to develop empathy and gain insight into the complexities of the real world. Throughout these projects, students collaborate to make meaningful contributions toward tackling these global challenges.
CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service)
CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service) is a holistic program designed to nurture DP students into their best selves while exploiting opportunities beyond their comfort zone. Through a balanced curriculum encompassing creativity, physical activity, and community service, CAS equips students with essential life skills, including collaboration, communication, leadership, and self-management. This multifaceted approach not only enriches their academic journey but also fosters personal growth and a commitment to becoming well-rounded, responsible global citizens.
