The Academy Scholastic offers high-quality and challenging educational programming for a network of Pod-Schools. Student centric, and modelled by instructors; we enable networks of educators to collaborate and support one another through programs of inquiry and design-based education. Accountability is assured through regular iterations of rigorous assessment, feedback, and revision. We are committed to maintaining an instructional ratio at 5 students per teacher/instructor for each pod-school. Ensuring your child never gets lost in the crowd.
Our 2022 Program is limited to 10 registrants.
The Academy Scholastic aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people through the lens of performing arts. Achieving higher rates of engagement and lifelong learning through compassion and empathy. Our students will help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.
Our flexible registration follows a traditional school schedule and holidays (Sept - June) and allows for registration for a week, a term, or a full year. If this program is not the right fit for your child, they may return to their regular schooling, relinquishing their spot to another student on the waitlist
typical Registration: $ 435.00 tax incl. per week
The Academy Scholastic makes better thinkers and innovators. For everyone to be as smart as they can be, every human being needs to exploit their innate curiosity and creativity.
