At ARC, we don’t take ourselves too seriously, but we do take our work seriously.
This is what motivates us:
Aspiration
We aspire to succeed, to create, to innovate and most importantly – to achieve happiness in life. Building a career in the creative fields is fulfilling on so many levels and it contributes immensely to the happiness factor. ARC Academy is here to help the students to steer their aspirations towards a path to professional and personal satisfaction.
Responsibility
Time is the most precious commodity each one of us can possibly have. The founders of ARC Academy are, above all, parents. Parents who have also experienced the frustration knowing that their child’s time is being wasted by a useless or outdated academic curriculum. This is why ARC Academy takes the time which students invest in learning very seriously and we begin every school day with a deep awareness of the responsibility we carry towards our children.
Creativity
The most miraculous aspect of creativity is the ability to create images and narrative out of seemingly nothing. To be inspired and for that inspiration to lead to something – entertainment, design, games, you name it. Creativity and imagination are at the core of everything ARC Academy stands for. All people need is an outlet to express their ideas. We teach the skills that make it possible to unleash the creative potential of our students. Our imaginations never really sleep if we protect and feed them properly.
Beliefs
We believe that bringing businesses and education together to help nurture future leaders is a goal worth investing in.
We believe that businesses cannot grow without a qualified workforce and if the business doesn’t grow, there wouldn’t be high-paying jobs that would compel young people to stay in their country. It’s a vicious cycle that we are on a mission to break.
