Our Purpose at The Alice Smith School
According to the words of our school song: ‘Soon there were two, who were joined by a few’. Alice Smith started a movement with just two people. That single brave act sparked a positive chain reaction. She inspired other families to join her on her journey, creating a nurturing environment for generations of learners and a home away from home for thousands of families.
In that same vein, we keep the Alice Smith spirit alive by building a nurturing community that encourages our students to explore the world with courage, curiosity and compassion.
To build a better world together.
Our purpose is embedded through our three strategic pillars:
Our People
We are a diverse collective of experts and curious minds, working together to push the boundaries of education to lead learning for an ever-changing world.
Our Students
We encourage students to explore different paths with courage and curiosity, in an environment that empowers them to make an impact as their best self.
Our World
We are a supportive, connected community that innovates, explores and learns together.
