Learning

Sophia Mundi is a progressive Steiner and IB World School. With a focus on holistic, meaningful and human-centred learning, we foster a passion for learning, curiosity and critical thinking. 

From prep to year 12, the structure of the curriculum around key developmental milestones allows students to build confidence and trust in themselves and the learning process.

By making learning a joyful experience and by teaching when a child is developmentally ready to learn, a level of enthusiasm is engendered through which educational outcomes are ultimately improved.

We offer a learning environment that truly equips young people for their engagement with the world and the challenges of this century, by fostering an attitude of learning with purpose and joy. 

 

Attributes of Sophia Mundi Graduates

At Sophia Mundi we strive to educate for life - extending beyond the bounds of future study and employment to a greater sense of preparedness for the world and for the future.

This directive to educate for the future has never been stronger - in a world where the Artificial Intelligence is becoming a significant part of everyday life, and the average adult will change careers multiple times, the ability to solve problems, think critically and creatively and work well with others will set our students up to find meaningful work and thrive in the modern world.

Our curriculum not only builds proficiency in academics, but also works to nurture core attributes that we understand will set our students up for life.  From Prep through to graduation, fostering these attributes in a developmentally appropriate way is woven into the curriculum, steadily building students’ capacity to be active participants in the world.
