Our goal is to develop global citizens who are creative, enquirers, thinkers, open-minded, knowledgable, communicators, risk-takers, principled, caring, balanced, reflective, responsible, resilient and decisive, living and promoting in others a positive outlook in life.

We, the SSM community, dedicate ourselves to achieve our vision by:

  • Striving for academic excellence using modern teaching strategies, disposing of the pressures and trauma associated with conventional teaching methods
