INTED's Vision

INTED’s Values

 

We believe enduring desire is a critical element of success in any endeavour – it is the fuel that drives our endeavours. We seek to work with school leaders, teachers, staff, and volunteers who have genuine passion for our work – those that have an honest and authentic interest in improving student achievement.

We seek to work with professionals who recognize their own shortcomings and are appreciative of opportunities to continue to improve. We look for teachers and leaders who respect and learn from the strengths, abilities and experiences of others.
We believe in a concerted and collective attitude – we will work with schools as a unit, engaging only when its leaders (heads and assistant heads) and teachers are ready to create and work in a collaborative and supportive environment. We believe in working together with empathic understanding for team members regardless of background.
 
We will work with teachers who are focused on and committed to success. Our results-driven approach is also a data-oriented one: our intensive interactive programmes are followed by year-long support, during which academic heads and teachers are assisted as they monitor and practice what they have learnt. We use a systematic process to track performance and adapt for results, one that requires adherence, dedication, and rapt student centeredness.
INTED seeks to change the trajectory of students by way of teachers and school leaders. Through career and life changing experiences targeted at pre-tertiary teachers and leaders, the Institute will bring new resources, methods of pedagogy, content delivery, class and school management, and student development to schools. INTED will enhance the capability of pre-tertiary schools to have a measurable beneficial impact on students.
Our admin and master fellow teams are in constant search for improvement; we set a high standard of achievement for our teaching professionals in their work with students, and we strive to show the way.
