While most subjects (English, Mathematics, Science, Computing, Religious Education, etc.) are taught by the class teachers, specialist teachers come in for some lessons (such as Music, Physical Education, Art, etc.). Specialist teaching can be provided in the area of ESL/EAL (English as a Second Language / English as an Additional Language) where required.
Students study an international curriculum but with plenty of input to reflect the history, geography and culture of Thailand, Myanmar, and the surrounding region, as well as some topics which pick up on the international mix of students and staff. Regular testing and reporting take place to monitor and inform parents of student progress using internationally recognised testing.
Support staff are available to students with particular educational needs, including students for whom English is a second, additional or foreign language, and consideration will be given to supporting the educational and cultural settings from which our international students are drawn.
The Middle School phase includes Years 7 to 9 (typically for learners aged from 11 to 14 years). Students will experience a balanced and broad international education that prepares them as life-long learners. This phase of schooling provides a natural progression from primary to secondary education with clear learning objectives and a solid foundation in the areas of English, Mathematics, Science, History, Geography, Information & Communications Technology, Religious Studies, Art, Music, Health and Physical Education. Each of the classes in Middle School also has a class teacher who functions as a pastoral tutor for the class, and several other teachers who specialise in their particular subject or subject groups.
