What if we ventured beyond our books and classrooms – what might learning look like? What if we could transcend and connect across disciplines, subjects, cultures or even places? What if we could inspire deepening of knowledge and skills through social, practical, intentional, cognitive and emotional engagement?
Welcome to NEXUS@BTY, where these ‘what ifs’ become reality.
NEXUS@BTY is more than just a cornerstone programme. It is a journey that sparks discovery, one that is carefully curated and diligently designed to equip Beattyians with requisite emerging 21st century competencies, and to ultimately nurture them as Adaptive Thinkers, Agile Learners and Active Contributors.
At its core, NEXUS enables students to
-
be critical, creative and user-centric, and become discerning decision-makers, inventive problem-solvers and empathetic communicators;
-
learn how to learn and become joyful explorers, purposeful navigators and reflective knowledge-builders;
-
be driven to serve and add value, and become impactful changemakers, compassionate connectors and community builders.
