    Overview

    Programme Overview

    Global Achievers Academy builds global change-makers through a unique programme of international cohort travel. With 4 destinations across 4 summers, our students will make friends and remain connected for life, as they travel through the four destinations as a cohort and share a common passion for making a positive impact on the world and building a sustainable future.

    Destinations

    The programme spans four continents:

    • North America (Boston)
    • Europe (London)
    • Asia (Singapore)
    • Africa (Cape Town)

    Each destination is carefully selected for its safety and cultural richness, aligning perfectly with our globally focused curriculum.

    Curriculum Highlights

    The wide and varied curriculum is based on 5 diverse and interesting key modules, which have been built with a focus on the United Nation’s 17 sustainable development goals:

    • Technology & the Future - Investigating the latest technological advancements and their future implications.
    • World History/Geographies & Art - Exploring the diverse narratives of global history, geography, and artistic expressions. 
    • Sustainability & the Environment - Emphasizing environmental stewardship and sustainable practices.
    • Leadership & Politics - Cultivating leadership skills and understanding global political dynamics.
    • Finance & Economics - Enhancing knowledge in global economic frameworks and financial literacy.

    Where applicable, we base the topics on the location in which the students are staying.

    Volunteering and Community Engagement

    Students participate in volunteering and community service initiatives, gaining practical experience in making a real-world impact. These activities are designed to instil a sense of global responsibility and foster deeper connections with diverse communities.

    Guest Speakers

    The programme includes sessions with guest speakers from various sectors, providing students with insights into different industries and global challenges. These sessions are structured to promote critical thinking and offer inspiration from established leaders and innovators in various fields.

    Cultural and Educational Activities

    At the Global Achievers Academy, students will partake in diverse cultural and educational activities providing a mix of entertainment and education.

    In Singapore, highlights include a visit to Universal Studios, the Science Museum Singapore, the Wild Wild Wet water theme park, and the Gardens by the Bay.
