Our Students

Carmel School believes that education should extend beyond the intellectual to include both socially responsible attitudes and thoughtful and appropriate action. Across all three campuses, there is an attention to service, both within and beyond the school community, since it is through such service that students are able to ground their knowledge in real-world experience and develop both personally and socially, as well as demonstrate the attributes of the IB learner profile.

Whether it takes the form of Action in the PYP curriculum, Service as Action in the MYP curriculum, Community, Activity, Service in the DP curriculum, or any other project embarked on by Carmel students, the role of service learning is always front and centre. Every year, students across Carmel are involved in the design and organisation of a variety of community and/or charity based enterprises, and it is through such action that our community of students develops meaningful connections across the world.

Our Educational Visits to Cambodia, Israel, Poland, Shanghai, Spain, Sri Lanka, Yangshuo (and many more locations) have as their core component a commitment to service, and to always leaving a place better off than when we arrived.
