IN THE CLASSROOM

Bright Stars Academy caters for pupils from pre-school education through to their final national examinations. The school’s aim has always been to be a leader in the education of young women and men and set the pace for educational change. The school believes in an unconditional positive regard for all in its care. We focus on independent critical thinking and creativity.

Education does not consist of academic endeavours alone. By providing extensive co-curricular opportunities, Bright Stars Academy is able to encourage each learner to extend his or her boundaries beyond the ordinary and discover his or her talents in whichever arena they lie. It is by finding one’s place in a community that one is able to develop confidence and strength.
