AURA’s education seeks to develop learners who understand the world, who understand people, and who have a relationship with God. If you want to understand the world, you need to know physics.

"What do I believe in? Why do I believe it? Are those reasons valid?" These are some of the central questions explored in the Theory of Knowledge (TOK) course, part of the International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum. This course encourages students to critically examine knowledge, question sources, and engage with diverse perspectives.
