Spiritual ministry

Your work must be more than a job — more than an income. As the key employee in a Christian school, you must visualize your work as a ministry, with a high level of spiritual content.

Professionalism

You must exhibit a true professionalism in all your dealings with students, parents, and colleagues. Your Christian testimony will be no more creditable than your work.

Classroom autonomy

You must be willing to take the major responsibility for the management of your own classroom. You are free — and, indeed, expected — to use your training, ingenuity, and creativity to the full, and to make generous use of all resources to maximize the learning experience for your students.

Parental responsibility

NTCS exists solely to provide a service to Christian parents; therefore, the parents of the students must be recognized as an integral part of the program of the school. In God's order, parents have the ultimate responsibility for the education and well-being of their children. The school strives to partner with them in this endeavour.
