The Premia Academy was founded on the belief that every child has the potential to make the world a beautiful place. Every child is unique and capable of learning when stimulated properly. Premia Academy believes in the development of these primary areas. Every institution has a framework or ground rules that they function with for the empowerment of every stakeholder. We at Premia like to call it the Premia ethos. We aspire to build a positive and progressive culture in our school, not only within our corridors and premises but in the very lives of all who are a part of our journey-children, parents, teachers, staff and administration. We revisit our methods from time to time to ensure that we constantly and consistently keep soaring towards our goal of engendering an atmosphere to empower SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE CITIZENSHIP. While most would say food and water and the basic needs of life help a child survive, we at the Premia Academy beg to differ, we strongly believe that safety, love and a positive learning environment helps children thrive.
The safe and positive environment (Safety isn’t expensive, it's priceless)
At Premia we believe that a child's health and safety is paramount. A Safe and Positive Learning Environment is key to accomplishing our purpose. It is the launch pad that every child takes off from. Keeping this in mind has been the reason to ensure that all the facilities provided at The Premia Academy ensures the safety of all who enter our premises, including the air they breathe! A sophisticated Air conditioning system that allows us to breathe clean, purified air is only one of such thought processes. According to educational researcher Sheryl Feinstein’s book From the Brain to the Classroom. It was found that half of the learning impact came from light, temperature, and air quality.

Once children finish their 10th grade our mentors do career counselling with the help of scientific ability tests and personality tests to further help children choose their direction Once kids decide on their chosen fields, experts from the field will be invited to address and explain to our students about the permutations and combinations of their respective fields.
Purpose (The Driving Force)
Good citizenship is about being a tribe that exudes peace and progress, while great citizenship is about impacting and changing lives for the better. We encourage our children to identify the purpose behind their passion and persistence.
Prodigy (Miracles in the making)
It's our driving force that all our children go on to achieve their aspirations and live lives that inspire one and all. Every step we take, every move we make, is an effort to ensure we awaken the hidden prodigy in every pupil. That journey builds itself on the bedrock of integrity, growth and innovation mindset and their tireless quest for knowledge. While everyone focuses on the thirst for materialistic success in life, little do we understand that fame, success and prosperity is the by-product of work done with passion and purpose.
