THE HEAD OF KGHS’ OPENING REMARKS

It is a great pleasure to welcome you to Kigali Greater Heights School.

I feel privileged to lead such an exciting and vibrant organization, which offers great opportunities for the young people in this great Rwanda, the country of a thousand hills. It is our goal to make each and every student to succeed. We offer our students the best possible opportunities to become confident, thoughtful God-fearing young people who are prepared for any future challenges, in an exciting and increasingly global world.

At Kigali Greater Heights School, we are very proud of our compassionate, caring, and inclusive ethos where we set high standards and expectations for our students to achieve and behave their very best. From the moment a new Kigali Greater Heights School student joins our school community we want them to feel a sense of happiness and belonging, as this is essential to their future success. Our friendly facilities and superbly dedicated staff will enable us to deliver our programs in an environment that is intimate, friendly and attuned to every specific educational need. We keep our classes and tutorial groups relatively small to create an atmosphere where you can feel relaxed and comfortable, which allows learners to really get to know their teachers.

We aim for all learners to be happy and to be challenged in a supportive and safe environment by:

  • Developing well rounded internationally thinking and locally performing individuals who demonstrate resilience and determination to succeed.
  • Equipping learners with the skills and academic success required to access new opportunities and enhance their life chances.
  • Consistently insisting on high expectations based on biblical Christian values.
  • Developing an aspirational and flagship school community that engages with all parents and relevant stakeholders.

Through the Cambridge International curriculum and the Rwanda curriculum competence-based learning, our academic standards at Kigali Greater Heights School continue to improve term on term and year on year. KGHS is carefully designed to be both accessible and challenging for all students, irrespective of their ability. We thereby ensure success for all by providing students with the necessary skills to flourish in an ever-changing and ever-demanding labor market.

Our curriculum will continue to further develop the French language, Kinyarwanda, Social Studies along with Cambridge courses. We believe in a strong sense of continuity between the customs and traditions of our African context and our international teaching practices. Therefore, learning of the East African region will be central to our educational practice, whilst implementing a more rigorous international modern British based curriculum blended with global learning.

Visitors are always welcome to make an appointment to visit Kigali Greater Heights School and see what we have to offer the young people of our local community, talk to our staff and students and see us in action.

I look forward to welcoming you to ensure the best standard of education and personal development for your child.
