Why should I choose an XP school for my child?
At XP, we don’t just deliver a curriculum – we create meaningful learning experiences that inspire students to make a difference in the world around them. Our schools are built around strong relationships, purposeful projects, and a deep sense of community. We teach through Expeditions, where we ask our students engage in real work, for real audiences, with real impact. Whether it’s presenting their learning at a public event or producing work that leaves a legacy in the community, our students are empowered to take ownership of their education.
Every student is part of a Crew – a small, consistent group that meets daily and ensures that no one is anonymous. This structure builds character, supports wellbeing, and encourages accountability in all areas of school life. Our approach to education is three-dimensional, focusing equally on academic success, beautiful work, and character growth. We believe that success isn’t just about what you know, but how you contribute and who you become along the way.
At the heart of XP are our character traits, which shape everything we do: Respect, Courage, Integrity, Craftsmanship and Quality, and above all Compassion. These values are lived out in classrooms, during Expeditions, and in the way students support one another as Crew. They are not just words on a wall – they are habits, choices, and expectations that guide students to become thoughtful, kind, and courageous individuals.
Choosing an XP school means joining a movement to do education differently – and better.
