At Ming-De International School Toowoomba we aim to demonstrate excellence in pedagogy, underpinned with the principals of the Australian Curriculum, the standards of the Alice Springs (Mparntwe) Education Declaration (2020) and the values of Sinology and the teachings of Buddha. Creating an atmosphere of learning and development to create confident communicators, imaginative thinkers and informed citizens.

We understand that good teaching goes well beyond the mastery of subject matter and content delivery. Good teaching requires not only knowledge of subject matter, but also knowledge of how students learn and how to transform them into active learners. To do this our teachers focus on developing vibrant and engaging learning environments that encourage an inquisitive nature, allowing our students to thrive academically while exploring their passions beyond the classroom.

Values are universal principles that help us to understand the difference between right and wrong. They guide moral and ethical decisions and help us to consider the impact of our thoughts and actions. In education, they have been proven to increase academic diligence, improve student-teacher relationships, create calmer environments and foster an engaged school community.
