Translate school motto

Hi,
I am currently in the process of setting up a high school in the UK and we wish to have a latin motto that I am hoping you can help with the translation of! Traditional values etc.
We're thinking something derived from "exceptional learning leads to greatness"
It doesn't need to be exactly that (eg "leads to" could be "comes from" or "breeds" etc) - we're just after something elegant that the above would be the appropriate translation of.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
