Mitra Academy is a new kind of learning space based entirely on the SOLE method, created by Sugata Mitra in 1999 and now used around the world.

In a SOLE learners receive a “big question” and with their peers find answers by using the latest technology. This encourages a unique and innovative thought process which is essential in our ever-changing world. Mitra learners are equipped to tackle even the most advanced questions and problems.

There is no homework at The Academy. Once a child leaves the premises they are encouraged to enjoy the time at home with their parents and siblings.

​

Because of our flexible schedule, learners can also learn and enjoy…

- Entrepreneurship

- Coding

- Personal fitness and training

- Tours & excursions

- Community service

- Creative writing workshops

- Art History

- Gardening

- Music
