Pro Merita was beneficial in helping me stay organized and on track with my academics . The teachers were very accommodating with my busy schedule and the communication when I was travelling took away a lot of stress for me . I highly recommend Sarah & her staff to all busy athletes.

Key Approaches
Supporting Success
It is most frequently lack of community support and access to resources that prevent a student from excelling in their chosen field of endeavour.
We seek to establish an educational community where differences and excellence are honoured and where non-conformity is the “norm.”
Peer engagement is a critical factor in the development of the whole person; positive peer engagement will ensure the most favourable environment for growth and learning.

Key Approaches
Affirming Family Life
The roots of an individuals’ development of positive self-esteem are found in family life.
Most high performance students and families make sacrifices in the very arena that ensures a student’s positive core development.
Pro Merita places the family at the centre of the health, well-being and education of the child.
To this end, our educational and enrichment programs provide the flexibility that ensures the family is “priority one!”

Key Approaches
Non-Partisan
No one training group can serve the needs of every high performance student. Nor can a single school or teacher provide full exposure to all sport/performing arts/music forms in a manner that connects to all.
The relationship built between a student and her/his coach/instructor/teacher is too important to the development of the student, and a critical factor in their success.
Pro Merita celebrates diversity and welcomes the opportunity to support the efforts of all extracurricular teachers & organizations.
It is through the combined efforts of a whole community that the success of the individual student is found.

Key Approaches
Holistic Education
Providing the tools and resources the next generation needs in order to positively contribute to our community and beyond, requires more than literacy and numeracy.
We are committed to providing a full range of learning experiences to equip our students to be informed and successful leaders in the world of sport, performing arts and music. Understanding how students learn best is a field that is explored in depth by leading experts in education around the world.
Pro Merita is keenly interested in embracing positive changes to the educational paradigm that places students and their families at the centre of defining educational paths.

A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO EDUCATION
Whole Life Learning
At Pro Merita, we understand that learning occurs outside the classroom as much as inside.
Experience that is gained through competition and engagement provides a wider worldview which helps foster a deeper understanding of yourself and others.
Pro Merita provides a flexible learning structure that allows this process of whole learning to flourish.
