It’s a big decision trying to work out which school your child will attend for primary or secondary school. When ITC was deciding on schools we found the best way was to attend an open day. You get to meet teachers, students and other parents. You also tour the facilities and can make comparisons. If you are deciding on a school ITC highly recommends you attend an open day.

Since 1969, we have provided students with an environment that blends the pursuit of academic goals with the social and emotional skills that are increasingly critical to thrive in a rapidly-changing world. Our approach encourages children to be adventurous in acquiring knowledge, intellectually curious, and to actively engage in making sense of their world through exploration, critical reflection, and play. We focus on the development of the whole child, including their academic, social, emotional and physical needs.
