Our Learning Approach

Developing Confident Global Citizens

Our students receive a high level of care and personal attention to support them in their learning. Our focus on academic achievement is matched by our desire to nurture adaptable, resilient and compassionate global citizens within a Ugandan context.

Great emphasis is put on pupil and teacher trust and well-being. We work together as passionate and knowledgeable professionals to inspire our students to develop a love for exploring and discovery.

Outdoor practical learning opportunities and healthy related physical activity are regular features of the school day, helping to develop a healthy body and mind.

Our students learn to understand more deeply our own Ugandan culture as well as the cultures of others, becoming socially and academically confident and growing in respect for themselves and all others.

Daily Routine

Our School Day

Our school day is demanding in terms of rigorous learning. We aim for children to be learning for approximately 80% of the day. Teachers receive class-specific timetables at the start of each term.

Wellbeing

Healthy Meals, Healthy Minds

We believe healthy eating is an important part of being at school. We value meal times and try to make eating a pleasurable experience while encouraging children to make healthy choices.

We believe that parents should be able to order school meals with confidence and that children should be able to enjoy tasty and appealing food that is good for them.

We have worked with nutritionists to plan a healthy, balanced meal of local food. Every meal includes carbohydrates, vegetables, protein and fruit.

We have regular reviews of our school menu by the student council and staff.

Balanced Meals Carbohydrates, vegetables, protein and fruit.

Student Voice Students and staff regularly review the menu.

Hydration Matters

Hydration is especially important for children as they have higher water requirements than adults. We encourage regular drinking throughout the day and every class has access to safe drinking water.

School Community

Smart, Practical & Ready to Learn

Our school uniforms have been carefully chosen to support the type of learning we want and to promote a sense of community and pride.

They are practical, comfortable and smart, helping our students feel part of the Clarke school community while being ready for the school day.

"Clothes and Manners do not make the man; but, when he is made, they greatly improve his appearance."

— Henry Ward Beecher
