Located at 70 Half-Way Tree Road, the Institute of Academic Excellence is one of Jamaica's fastest growing private institutions, hosting over one thousand two hundred (1, 200) students from all walks of life. Motivated by students whom he had taught at former institutions, the Director of IAE Mr. Jermaine Martin started this institution on September 5, 1999 in Central Plaza, Half-Way Tree. Before long, the school outgrew that home and moved to 26 Hagley Park Road. The school spent two academic years there before it was relocated to its present home: 70 Half-Way Tree Road.
The main aim of the institution has always been to unfold the educational potential of every student who enters the door of I.A.E. This goal continues through the employment of caring and loving teachers who always go the extra mile to ensure the success of their students. In this respect, the Institution’s passes at the CXC level ranged between fifty and ninety three percent in the subjects taken by the students over the period September 1999 - June 2004. Our records of success can withstand the scrutiny of those who wish to dispute this claim.
Indeed I.A.E stands behind its motto: “Our Mission is Your Success” as we seek to partner with students on their road to self-improvement.
To bring forth the great scholastic, social and spiritual potential of students, through high quality teaching and dynamic interaction among staff and students.
Welcome to I.A.E!!
It is the Institute’s hope that your tenure of study here will be one of discovery and accomplishment of a high level of intellectual capability that will propel you to make a meaningful contribution to society.
Furthermore, it is the Institute’s desire that you will develop a craving for spiritual upliftment and a deep interpersonal relationship among the student body. In so doing, a high level of respect and understanding will be displayed.
Thanks for making the Institute of Academic Excellence the choice for your academic development. I will conclude by reminding you that “Our Mission is Your Success”.
