From October 6 to 15, 2022, a group of 10th and 11th grade students embarked on Nord Anglia Education’s Discovery Expedition in the Swiss Alps.
Students faced physical and mental challenges during their trekking and exploration experiences near Geneva, developing risk evaluation, self-reliance, and leadership skills along the way. They learned how to read maps, use a compass, cook their meals with a camping stove, and other essential skills.
They trekked nearly 30 km and climbed almost 1,000 m in two days, and while exhausting, it also brought them a great sense of accomplishment to reach their destination. It was certainly a memorable and fun experience for our students, who came back with lasting bonds and many stories to tell.
At the institutional level, an organization is the design and establishment of structures, processes, functions, and responsibilities, as well as the methods and techniques necessary to reach objectives in the most effective way. The challenge herein is to ensure that all activities, areas involved, and resources used are coordinated to achieve such purpose.
Freedom of action, thought, and expression is the essence of the teacher-school relationship, which entails commitments and responsibilities on both sides. For a teacher, adhering to the educational project is possible within the concept of freedom. At the same time, the right to teach with freedom is possible within the curricular framework of principles and ethics.
