3. Students who strive for excellence
To become the best that they can be by having pride in reaching their potential via a varied, exciting programme of study suitable to the needs of all students, but also via a personal and social programme that teaches students their rights and responsibilities towards others, but also towards their immediate environment – students can become behaviour monitors, council representatives for example which empowers them, allowing them the opportunity to strive for leadership roles and to assist others to Lusail to be like them thus contributing positively to the local school community as well as the national and global society.
4. Aware of what it means to live a healthy lifestyle
Through the curriculum and through assemblies, we prepare our students to be knowledgeable about healthy lifestyle, thus challenging old concepts and embracing new ideas on health and safety. We lead them to understand how to strive in an ever rapidly changing world with new discoveries andnew ways of living one’s life, taking into consideration that how we consume food impacts on ourhealth and environment.
5. Proud, young people with integrity
To be proud of one’s school, of one’s community, of one’s environment and to encourage honesty and integrity in every aspect of school life. To embrace this culture of integrity so that one’sreputation grows and matures into responsible, caring people that are prepared to become part of a global society. Through team work, we encourage them to respect one another and contribute positively within groups. We empower them with the skills to help others because they want to improve themselves to be the best they can be along with a will to become useful and respected members of their community.
