through learning.
MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to make suitable provision for the intellectual,
creative and emotional development of all of the citizens of
Montserrat by enabling people to acquire academic, technical and
social skills and build capabilities for self-directed and

national development, and facilitate adjustment to an ever
changing domestic, regional and global environment.

strategies.

necessary for human and dignified living.
