Qualities and characteristics best defining the school

Domuschola International School is a progressive international school in Pasig City, Metro Manila whose philosophy is that the education of every child should be a collaboration between home and school. We offer quality education at the preschool, primary and secondary levels. We take pride in adhering to the rigorous International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum for our Primary Years Program (Kinder to Grade 5) and Diploma Programme (Grades 11 & 12). For our Grades 7 to 10, we use our own curriculum that is also based on the inquiry method. You may find out more about us on our website, www.domuschola.edu.ph.

Teaching approach of the school

Our teachers use inquiry-based learning to boost student engagement and to spark curiosity and enthusiasm among our students. Students develop their own questions to learn about a certain topic. With the guidance of our teachers, students will research about the topic using different resources to learn more about it. Once they have gathered and sorted all the information and have understood the topic, they are asked to present their findings in class. More than understanding content, our students are trained to present and communicate what they have learned in class. Finally, our students are encouraged to reflect on the process of how they learned, why they learned, and what they learned.
