We hope that students will possess 8 core competencies through their studies at OVIS. 

Curiosity: Inquiry into the principles of things. 

Creativity: Discovering new things and applying them to life. 

Critical Thinking: The ability to process information and ideas, and to form reasonable opinions and judgments. 

Communication: The ability to convey one's thoughts and feelings clearly and confidently. in various media and forms.

Collaboration: Working with others and offering constructive suggestions or advice. 

Compassion: Thinking from another's perspective and taking corresponding actions. 

Composure: Matching inner thoughts with one's own abilities to achieve a balanced self. 

Citizenship: Encouraging constructive suggestions for society and active participation.

We believe that if students truly master the above 8 core competencies, they can not only succeed in their school life but also in their future life. Therefore, we have designed such a teaching method to help students internalize this teaching philosophy and the skills learned. We teach through disciplines rather than subjects.
