The Verita International School Difference

We understand that the world is becoming a more connected and complex place. Education needs to be more than the just simple transfer of knowledge. Students need to become independent thinkers, problem solvers and innovators.  At Verita, we cultivate the skills that allow students to become the leaders of tomorrow.

The Verita student is global, interdisciplinary, and boundaryless. They challenge what is possible and find solutions for what is impossible. They are empowered for an unknown future. 

How We're

Different

Emotional Intelligence

We leverage social-emotional learning methods & curricula to empower students to comprehend & manage emotions so they can ultimately channel them into self-awareness & management, decision-making, and resilience skills.

Inquiry-Based Learning

A teaching approach that builds on the idea that educators and students both share responsibility for learning. Students’ questions, ideas, and observations lay at the core of the learning experience. Inquiry methodologies require students to engage in evidence-based reasoning, learning by doing, and creative problem-solving.

Low Student - Teacher Ratio

Verita classes reflect our student-centric philosophy with an impressively low student-teacher ratio of 1:9. The small size of our classes, combined with our inspiring & highly qualified teaching faculty guarantee that students get independent attention and tailor-made differentiated support.

Well-being

Verita actively builds internal programs that promote student and staff well-being. We ensure a space where students feel physically and emotionally safe with a caring adult looking after the progress and acting as an advocate for each child. Most importantly, we ensure that kindness is the center of everything we do.

Service Learning Projects

Verita students must participate in meaningful community service which exposes them to active engagement within communities or environments in need. Using curriculum objectives and innovative approaches, our students work on real-world problems.

Student Agency

Verita promotes skills in students where they build their own, self-directed learning abilities and strategies, allowing them to develop a higher degree of autonomy and self-mastery. Student agency is “the ability of students to act independently within a given environment and assume an amount of control and empowerment”.

  • 📲 Reminder: Kindness isn’t a week; it’s a choice we can make every day.

Last week, we gave you a glimpse of our creation. Here’s the finished result!

Each piece of our Kindness Chain, crafted by our students, carries a promise to choose compassion, no matter the date. This chain may mark the end of Kindness Week, but it’s a wonderful reminder of each of our journeys to bring more kindness into the world, daily. 🌍💙

  • Say hello to Mr. Nikos, our Greek teacher at Verita Primary School! 🇬🇷

Originally from Larissa, Greece, Mr. Nikos brings his enthusiasm for Greek language and culture to our school. With one year at Verita, he’s already deeply connected to the warm and inclusive spirit of our school, where diversity is celebrated and kindness thrives.

"What I love most about Verita is the kindness and generosity I see every day—everyone here is so welcoming and supportive." - Mr. Nikos

Favorite School Subject: Greek, of course! 📖
Favorite Book: 1984 by George Orwell 📚
Favorite Food: Pasta 🍝
Fun Fact: Mr Nikos loves perfecting his handstand!

Mr. Nikos, thank you for bringing Greek language and culture to life for our students every day and for always teaching with such passion and positivity. We’re thrilled to have you with us at Verita! 🌟
  • Verita takes on Athens 5K! 😱

From the start line at the iconic Greek Olympic Stadium to the finish, it was all smiles, cheers, and maybe even a few records broken (we’re looking at you, Mr. Yannis!). Our Secondary students tackled the 5K on Saturday, with our Primary students joining in on Sunday for the 1.2K, and even a few brave parents stepped up to run—bravo to them!

We’re so grateful to everyone who came out, ran, cheered, and helped make this day unforgettable. A huge thank you to Coach Yannis and the amazing PE team, Theo and Benji, for their warm-ups, high-fives, and endless encouragement.

Until next year’s event! 🎊😉

  • Today, we asked our students what kindness means to them, and they showed us just how powerful even small acts of kindness can be. They also reminded us of something important—that kindness should begin with ourselves. We’re incredibly proud to celebrate World Kindness Day with such thoughtful, inspiring young hearts!

Happy #WorldKindnessDay everyone! 🌟

  • ✨ Step Inside “Anger’s Palace” with Us! ✨

Imagine a world where emotions have their own kingdom. Last week, our Early Years classes entered Anger’s Palace at the Museum of Emotions, an interactive space where feelings like frustration, energy, and empathy come alive!

In Anger’s Palace, our students learned that anger isn’t just about “mad”—it’s a mix of boundaries, big energy, and even a spark for creativity. Through hands-on activities, they explored questions like:

💙 What does anger feel like? Each child discovered how emotions show up in the body, from a fast heartbeat to tight fists.
💙 What can anger teach us? With role-play and sensory experiences, our students found out how anger can be a signal—showing us what we need and where our boundaries are.
💙 Can anger be creative? They learned that anger doesn’t have to be destructive; it can lead to powerful solutions and creative ideas, too.

Thanks to the Museum of Emotions team, our young learners experienced the power of emotion firsthand—discovering that feelings aren’t “good” or “bad” but simply part of our journey. This ties beautifully into our Social Emotional Learning (SEL) program, giving students real tools to recognize and embrace every part of themselves.

What a beautiful day full of big feelings, deep learning, and new discoveries!

The Verita Learning Adventure ?

The National Curriculum of England is our core curriculum.  We introduce Fieldwork Education’s IEYC, IPC, and IMYC frameworks to provide a deeper interconnected, interdisciplinary, and intercultural learning experience.  Emory University’s Social Emotional Ethical program and Second Step’s Mindfulness curriculum are weaved throughout the curriculum.

Verita ensures that all students meet the rigorous milestones and objectives of the National Curriculum while providing exciting inquiry-based learning opportunities in parallel. 

We believe that through inquiry, active learning, and the development of emotional intelligence in a safe environment, all students are capable of mastery of knowledge, skills and understanding.
