OUR PURPOSE

As a “community of communities,” TABS partners with school leaders—particularly Heads and Assistant Heads of School, Residential & Student Life Practitioners, and Admission & Marketing Professionals— to drive excellence, innovation, and collaboration so that every student thrives.

• Our best-in-class Professional Learning enriches Heads, Directors, Deans, and staff.
• Our cost-effective Enrollment & Recruitment Assistance equips schools to make the case for the unique, lifelong value of residential education, and connects schools with prospective families, at home and abroad, online and in-person.
• Our Research & Insights deliver unmatched, actionable data to bolster school planning, problem-solving, and decision-making.

We also develop programs for schools to better identify and manage risks, most notably by our training around student safety and care, as well as through TuitionNet, the association’s tuition insurance program.

For all of the schools we serve, we create opportunities for true connection and sharing. We aim to help leaders cultivate academic communities that are inclusive, just, sustainable—and truly exceptional.
