Our Philosophy

Where Happiness Unlocks Potential

As a parent today, you know how high-pressure school was. Learning was never fun. School
was never about being curious, it was about getting good grades. We spent most of our time
rote learning things that we didn’t understand, while focusing entirely on how well we could
word vomit by memory. Our teachers were concerned with finishing the syllabus, not our well
being. It’s time to give our children what we missed out on.

In a world where parents are eager to ensure their children find happiness while excelling
academically, we recognize the pressing need for a new approach. We understand that many schools
have prioritized grades over genuine learning experiences, leaving learners feeling overwhelmed and
disconnected. At Empyrean, we reject this outdated model.

We are committed to positioning ourselves as a beacon of change —where learning and
wellbeing go hand in hand. At Empyrean, we want our students to chase happiness—happiness
that will help them unlock their true potential, in academics and beyond. Our pillars of
happiness guide every aspect of our educational philosophy.

Positive relationships lead to a happier and healthier life, as found by the longest study ever done on happiness by Harvard. We believe in nurturing all relationships. With a focus on love, care, and fostering a no-judgment zone, Empyrean prioritises quality teacher-learner relationships, respectful learner interactions, and a strong school-parent partnership. Empyrean supports this through carefully planned engagements where learners collaborate inside and outside the classroom. By embracing parents as partners, the school fosters a collaborative approach that nurtures meaningful connections built on trust, empathy, and respect. Regular engagements and workshops further enhance this partnership, contributing to learner success and wellbeing
