Reedley cultivates globally competitive students—academically strong, innovative, and adaptable—by cultivating curiosity, transferable skills, diverse experiences, and a love for lifelong learning, empowering them to reach their full potential and make a positive impact.
A globally competitive student has the knowledge, skills, and most importantly, mindset to thrive in today’s interconnected world.

As the premier international school in the Philippines, we offer a holistic education designed to develop key competencies, ensuring your child is well-equipped to succeed in an ever-evolving world.
Encourage Curiosity
Learning how to foster your child to be globally competitive begins by encouraging their natural curiosity. You can nurture this curiosity by exposing your child to diverse outlooks, learning approaches, and experiences beyond the home.
Encourage them to ask questions and explore the world around them, sparking their interest in new ideas and cultures. This early engagement with diverse ideas and experiences lays the groundwork for a well-rounded education and prepares them for future success in an interconnected world.
At Reedley, you can be assured that your child’s curiosity is actively encouraged. With our comprehensive curriculum, diverse student body, and attentive faculty, we create an environment where exploration and inquiry are encouraged.
Nourish Transferable Skills
Excelling in academics is not the only way to nurture a globally competitive student. Equally important is enabling transferable skills such as communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and leadership.
These skills are valuable not just during their time at school but also as students step into a wider world. They equip them to adapt to various environments, tackle complex challenges, and seize opportunities in their future careers.
We provide opportunities for your child to develop these skills through engaging coursework, interactive activities, collaborative projects, and real-world problem-solving scenarios that encourage them to communicate, think creatively, and collaborate with peers.
Encourage Diverse Experiences
Being globally competitive means having cultural awareness and understanding. One of the best ways to nurture this open-mindedness is by introducing your child to an environment that breeds diverse mindsets through varied experiences, such as an international school.
In these environments, children encounter diverse cultures, ideas, and experiences, broadening their worldviews and helping them connect with the world. Through cultural exchange programs, collaborative projects, and discussions on global issues, your child develops a global mindset, preparing them to engage actively in a multicultural society.
Introduce Them to Multiple Perspectives
Introducing your child to multiple standpoints facilitates global competitiveness by enhancing critical thinking, cultural awareness, adaptability, communication skills, creativity, and resilience.
For instance, discussing world events from multiple viewpoints encourages critical analysis and empathy, while engaging with diverse cultures helps reduce prejudice and pushes appreciation for differences. Collaborative projects and group discussions enhance communication and innovation skills, while conflict resolution builds resilience. Ultimately, these skills empower children to contribute positively to society.
Instill a Love for Lifelong Learning
As the world continues to evolve and new and wondrous discoveries emerge, instilling a love for lifelong learning is more important than ever, especially when nurturing a globally competitive child. When children see learning as an ongoing journey, they become more resilient and adaptable—traits essential for thriving in school.
Encouraging a continuous pursuit of knowledge helps them stay curious, embrace new ideas, and think critically about complex issues.
Here at Reedley International School, we nurture this mindset by providing a solid foundation in academics and an environment that supports lifelong learning and global competitiveness.
