Human Skills That Set Global Citizens Apart in the Age of AI
In an age shaped by AI, academic results alone are not enough. The future belongs to students who can think critically, collaborate globally, and lead with confidence. At Dwight School Hanoi, these human skills are developed through real-world experiences — from global exchanges like Dwight Destinations to opportunities such as the Manchester City Football School and skill-driven Spark Programs.

Raising Curious, Confident Children through the IB Approach in the Lower School
Every parent wants their child to grow into a curious, confident learner who feels happy and supported at school. In this session, we explore how the IB approach in the Lower School nurtures inquiry, independence, and a love for learning. At Dwight School Hanoi, this is strengthened through a comprehensive support system — from Quest Learning Support for English language learners to the continued development of each child’s mother tongue.
