At SPS the process of education involves bringing young people, their parents or guardians together with the management and staff in an atmosphere of family to form an INTEGRATED COMMUNITY.

The 3 Basic Principles of Education

• Reason
• Faith in God
• Loving Kindness

Based on the conviction that the heart of education is the education of the heart, SPS aims at bringing up our students to be honest citizens who will take their rightful place and play a responsible role in society.
