Welcome to Domuschola International School
At Domuschola International School, we celebrate individual differences and view each one as a useful and productive member of society. We believe that education is a means to empower each person to work collaboratively with others, to think critically in addressing challenges in creative, insightful ways, and to take purposeful action for the service of others.
Domuschola is a union of two Latin words, Domus, which means “Home” and Schola, which means “School.” Domuschola is meant to emphasise the close connection between home and school, the two worlds of the growing student. It connotes that the school is the student’s extension or second home, and teachers are their second parents. The coined word also illustrates the bridging of the student’s home and the school in the continuing development of the student. It also underscores the critical role of the parents as active partners of the school in the continuum of learning. The learning in school is not just “academic” but must have a carry-over application to the student’s natural environments, the home, and the community.
At Domuschola International School, we are committed to nurturing global citizens who make a difference in their own unique way. Guided by our goals: Discover potential, Innovate ideas, and Serve others, we empower students and teachers with agency in their learning and growth.
Our students take an active role in shaping their educational journey, exploring their passions, thinking critically, and making meaningful contributions to the world.
Our teachers serve as facilitators of learning, fostering curiosity, creativity and independence while continuously growing as professionals and lifelong learners.
Our parents are essential partners, collaborating with educators, to create a
supportive and accepting community.
Our staff are professionals who promote a positive school environment that nurtures student agency and teacher leadership. Together, we cultivate a school culture where everyone is empowered to thrive, lead, and create meaningful change.
Lux Et Sal Tierra (Light and Salt of the Earth)—The school’s motto signifies the role we desire our graduates to take on as they go out into the real world. Light signifies illumination, whereas salt is used to add flavour and to preserve. Learners of Domuschola are being trained to fulfill these roles: to cause their light to illumine and affect the society in which they live and to be the very catalyst for positive change and transformation, as well as to preserve the uniqueness of our culture and the wealth of our heritage.
Education should be a partnership between home and school. Further, it is also a collaborative endeavour among families and the community. Education is an internal process and requires the active participation of the educand.
Education serves a dual purpose. We strive for the development of the student as a unique individual and as a useful and productive member of society.
