What makes us different?
Emotional Intelligence
To understand and manage emotions, our students are immersed in social-emotional learning programs and curricula throughout their studies. Social-emotional learning enhances one’s self-awareness, self-management, decision-making and resilience.
Low Student – Teacher Ratio
Verita classes have an impressively low student-teacher ratio of 1:9. Small class size and our inspiring and highly qualified teaching faculty ensure that students get independent attention and tailor-made differentiated support.
Service Learning Projects
Verita students must participate in meaningful community service which exposes them to active engagement within communities or environments in need. Using curriculum objectives and innovative approaches our students work on real-world problems.
Inquiry Based Learning
A teaching approach that builds on the idea that educators and students both share responsibility for learning. Students’ questions, ideas and observations are at the centre of the learning experience. Inquiry methodologies require students to engage in evidence-based reasoning, learning by doing and creative problem-solving.
Well-Being
Verita actively builds internal programs that promote student and staff wellbeing. We ensure a space where students feel physically and emotionally safe with a caring adult looking after the progress and acting as an advocate for each child. Most importantly, we ensure that kindness is the centre of everything we do.
Student Agency
It boils down to creating skills in students where they build their own self-directed learning abilities and strategies which allow them to develop a higher degree of autonomy and self-mastery. Student agency is ‘The ability of students to act independently within a given environment and assume an amount of control and empowerment”
We believe that classrooms of collaborators can change the world

Testimonials
Our three kids have been attending Verita for the last three years, and they are all very happy about their experiences. The teachers and administration staff are excellent. Everybody is always very willing to help and to accommodate every request. They learn more than just academics in this school, they learn how to become real citizens of the world and that is a real plus compared to any other school.

VERITA PARENTS
Our son has been attending Verita for three years now and just loves it. Imagine that, a thirteen-year-old teenager who looks forward to going to school? Why? I think it’s about the teachers and the structure of the study. Teachers are confident younger leaders who encourage him to think and contribute to classroom discussions. Projects (which are frequent) encourage a point of view and a robust defense of that point of view with extra credit for creativity in problem-solving.
