Our School Community

Uptown offers a warm and nurturing environment where parents, students and teachers work as a

team. Parents are welcome to visit or assist in the classrooms and further contribute by helping to add

to our range of innovative extra-curricular activites.

Our Teachers

We are committed to recruiting highly qualified teachers and support staff with relevant, international

experience and proven performance. Hailing from across the globe, our faculty and support staff come

from a diverse pool of nationalities, adding to the diversity and international-mindedness of our school

environment.

The IB Primary Years Program and Middle Years Program is based on committed teaching in the spirit of

an inquiry-based curriculum. Our teachers continue to engage in a process of professional development

throughout their time at Uptown, seeing themselves not only as educators but also as learners. Their

love of teaching ensures that they strive for excellence in themselves and their students.

Teachers at Uptown endeavour to encourage students to continue to explore their gifts and talents as

lifelong learners, demonstrating positive attitudes towards people and the environment and successfully

contributing to society.
