HWA International School Middle School adopts the International Baccalaureate (IB) Middle Years Programme (MYP) which offers a holistic but challenging framework that encourages students to make practical connections between what they learnt in school and the real world. It prepares the students aged 12 to 16 for success at the IB Diploma Programme (DP).
At HWA International School, we understand the importance of making an informed decision when it comes to choosing the right secondary school for your child. That is why we are excited to invite you to our virtual open house, where you can explore everything our school has to offer. As an international school, we pride ourselves on providing a diverse and inclusive learning environment for students from all backgrounds. Our open day will give you a glimpse into the exciting opportunities that await your child at HWA.
Our secondary school campus is equipped with modern facilities and cutting-edge technology to enhance the learning experience for our students. From our classrooms to our science laboratories and art studios, you will see how our learning spaces are designed to promote creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration.
Our team of dedicated teachers are passionate about providing quality education. Through virtual meetings and presentations, you will have the opportunity to interact with our teachers, gain insights into our teaching methodologies, and learn about the support systems we have in place to ensure your child's success.
As an authorized International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, we follow the Middle Years Programme, which is designed to prepare students for the challenges of higher education and beyond. We will provide an overview of the MYP curriculum.
At HWA, we believe in providing an education that extends beyond the classroom. During our virtual open day, you will learn about the wide range of extracurricular activities available to our secondary school students. From sports teams to arts clubs, we offer something for every interest, helping students develop their skills and pursue their passions.
At HWA, we value the partnership between teachers, students, and parents. During the open day, you will have the opportunity to connect with our current parents and hear about their experiences at HWA. Our supportive community is what sets us apart and creates a nurturing environment for all our students.
The unique bilingual environment and bicultural model designed by HWA International School.
HWA International School has always put the focus on the physical and mental well-being of each student.
The HWA International School Parent Support Group (PSG) was established in 2011.
On campus, all classrooms are equipped with IT infrastructure that helps teachers enhance the learning experience.
At HWA International School, our IB programme encompasses three stages:
HWA MYP units are conducted through explorations of the following 6 prescribed global contexts. These global contexts enable the student to connect learning experiences inside the classroom with those outside. International mindedness is also developed through the contextual learning process.
Conceptual understanding is the key feature in HWA MYP units of inquiry. There are 16 key interdisciplinary concepts along with the related concepts for each discipline. Lessons are planned around the exploration of these key and related concepts within the 6 global contexts.
Approaches to learning (ATL) skills are essential for the exploration of the concepts. These skills are incorporated in each MYP unit and are further developed and reinforced in the HWA Pastoral Care and Project programmes. Teaching the students to learn how to learn, these ATL skills prepare the students for independent learning and encourage them to apply what they learnt in unfamiliar situations.
Service as action through community is strongly encouraged. Wherever possible, the MYP unit is designed such that the students can apply what they have learnt to serve the community, putting values into what the students learn in the classrooms and developing them into empathetic community members.
Inclusion and learning diversity are fully supported in the HWA. Through differentiation, teachers are able to respond to variance among the students and tailor to their learning needs. HWA also has in place an academic support programme to help students consolidate their foundation. All stakeholders including parents, together with teachers and counsellors, are also involved to help students to overcome challenges during their learning journeys.
