Centre for Inspiring Minds (CIM)
In the constant pursuit of excellence in education, CIM was established in September 2012. Its aims are to cultivate a research-engaged school by:
- Championing collaborative inquiry as an effective form of professional development aimed at improving teaching and learning
- Driving the rigorous use and practice of school-based academic and co-curricular research as the foundation for a research-engaged school
- Harnessing and supporting creativity across our schools
- Strengthening partnerships among campuses and divisions
- Forging relationships with external organisations to further international education.
Working in close collaboration with the Heads of School, the MD and the wider ACS leadership team, CIM strives to make a difference by supporting the professional development and lifelong learning of ACS staff.
