PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES
理念與目標

Yew Chung has pioneered a new paradigm in international education. We define an international education by what goes on inside the student. It is about the internal transformation of the child. This is affected by the international school’s culture, which is created by the teaching and learning in environment, the administration, the overall content and process which links to the character formation of the child. The international education ethos that Yew Chung reflects can be seen in the content and process of education that leads our students to an inner transformation whereby they are both Eastern and Western.
耀中為國際教育奠立了新的範例。我氜創設的教學環境、行政管理和課程內容，讓學生在校園的國際文化氣氛，中潛移默化，成就兼容東西文化的獨立人格。

Yew Chung is committed to educate the whole person from infancy through secondary education. We strive to unite the best elements of Eastern and Western traditions and practices, the growth of the individual and the inquiring mind as well as develop a sense of personal responsibility and social welfare of all. The Yew Chung international curriculum is designed to be developmentally appropriate for each age level, rooted in bilingual education in multicultural environments utilizing instructional and information technology, fusing both Western and Chinese philosophies for character formation. Our holistic approach to education involves cooperation with parents, family, community and world around us.
耀中致力提供從嬰幼兒至中學階段的全人教育。我們努力不懈，擷取東西文化的精粹，將學生培育為勇於探索、具備責任感和公民意識的社會棟樑。耀中的國際課程，以雙語及多元文化教育為經，以揉合中、西哲理為緯，適應不同年齡階段的學習特點，配合現代資訊科技及教學策略，培育學生的優良品格。我們的全人教育，非常重視家長、家庭、社區及週遭社群的通力合作。
