Bannister Academy is a small traditional school. Our class sizes are kept at 18-20 students per level which help us maintain a learning environment that is centered on our students. This way, we are able to provide a very personalized learning experience to our students through coaching while still maintaining the discipline and structure of a traditional class.
Bannister Academy is a K-12 compliant primary and secondary school. We offer classes for preschool (nusery, pre-kinder, and kinder), grade school (grade 1 to 6), and high school (grade 7 to 12).
The Paideia Program, or simply Paideia, is an educational philosophy pioneered by Mortimer Adler in the United States. It seeks to bring back the democratic process in learning by giving students a personalized type of education.
Following the Paideia Program, classes in Bannister Academy are normally divided into three (3) parts: lectures, coaching, and Paideia seminars.
For more information, you may visit their website at www.paideia.org
The Paideia Seminar is an academic exercise where students are given a text (i.e. an article, a primary source, a work of art, a film, an invention, a mathematical concept, etc.) to process among themselves.
In a seminar, the teacher takes a step back and it is the students who lead the discussion, following certain questions that the teacher gives.
More often than not, the discussion takes a direction dictated by the students themselves. In these seminars, the teacher gives the students an opportunity to discuss big ideas or values relevant to the subject matter.
To learn more about the benefits of our academic program, mentoring, and small class sizes, book a one-on-one inquiry via Zoom or a private visit of our campus.
