IGCSE Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): What is the IGCSE? The Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) is the world’s most popular international qualification for 14 to 16 year olds. It attracts almost 500,000 entries from 144 different countries every year. The IGCSE is designed to be taught as a two-year course beginning in Year 9 and culminating in external examinations in Year 10. In some subjects there is a choice between core and extended curricula, making the IGCSE suitable for a wide range of abilities. Students can enter examinations for the level that is most appropriate for them and this need not be the same across all subjects. Cambridge IGCSE is an international passport to progression and success. It is recognised by leading universities and employers worldwide as evidence of academic ability. Cambridge IGCSE provides the perfect springboard to the Cambridge Advanced stage, typically for learners aged 16 to 19 years, as well as the International Baccalaureate diploma and other post-16 routes. Within Cambridge Advanced, learners can choose from a range of 55 Cambridge International A Level subjects. Cambridge IGCSE helps improve learner performance by developing skills in creative thinking, enquiry and problem solving. How are the students assessed in the IGCSE? Cambridge IGCSE assessment takes place at the end of the course and can include written, oral, coursework and practical assessment. This broadens opportunities for students to demonstrate their learning, particularly when their first language is not English. In many subjects there is a choice between core and extended curricula, making Cambridge IGCSE suitable for a wide range of abilities. Grades are benchmarked using eight internationally recognised grades, A* to G, which have clear guidelines to explain the standard of achievement for each grade. Cambridge IGCSE examination sessions occur twice a year, in June and November. Results are issued in August and January. What does core and extended curriculum mean? The core curriculum is based on an overview of the subject and is suitable for students expected to achieve grades C to G. The extended curriculum is more challenging and designed for students who are expected to achieve grades A* to C. This is in line with the School’s focus on differentiation and students can choose either stream according to their ability. Students will generally make that choice in Year 10 after consultation with their parents and teachers. Beforehand we will teach all students the extended curriculum. How are the exams marked and graded? Some exams are marked on paper and some (such as multiple-choice exams) are marked automatically by a computer. But for any exam, every student’s work is marked in the same way. Cambridge examiners are teachers or experts in their subject, and they are carefully selected and trained. It is vital that they all mark to the same standard so that they can award the right mark to every student every time. After all the marking has been done, grades are set. They use a mixture of statistical evidence and expert judgement to agree on grade boundaries. Exam papers can vary slightly in difficulty, so care is taken to set the grade boundaries in the right place, so students don’t get a lower grade just because the paper they sat was more difficult than the year before. Does the IGCSE prepare the students for further study? The IGCSE provides the perfect springboard to the Cambridge International AS and A levels, the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program and all Higher School Certificates in Years 11 and 12. The IGCSE is also used as a benchmark for entry into many UK universities. Does my child get to choose the subjects they study? There are over 70 subjects available at Cambridge IGCSE, and schools can offer them in any combination. At AISB, the first cohort is very small which will limit the amount of choice the students can make. However, course selection can be influenced by results in previous reports, discussion of student’s strength and weaknesses, interest in subject area and career aspirations. How much will it cost? Cambridge International charges an entry fee per syllabus per student. Schools usually also add an administration fee which includes the transportation of exam materials to and from the UK. The amount is approximately THB 2,500 per subject. What does my child receive at the end of the course? Your child will receive an embossed certificate which can be used in a student portfolio for employment and further study. IGCSE FAQs: Text

Our Kindergarten program is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework and provides a rich and engaging child-centred environment where children’s learning is embedded in play experiences. Learning activities are planned through inquiry units and a skills-based Pre-Literacy Program for children to build skills, knowledge and understanding in the social, emotional, physical, cognitive, mathematical, language and communication domains. Kindergarten: About Us Learning Focus In Kindergarten, children continue to build a strong sense of identity and connectedness to their world.

Testimonials Hear what our parents and students have to say about being part of the AISB community I am writing to express my heartfelt thanks for the wonderful article highlighting my son’s success in winning the school chess championship and the interschool competition. Your thoughtful recognition in the school newsletter and on social media means a great deal to our family and has filled him with confidence and pride in representing AISB. I also want to commend the school for fostering an environment that celebrates both individual excellence and the spirit of participation. Publicly recognizing standout performances—through the newsletter, social media, and official school assemblies— not only boosts the confidence of the individual but also inspires others to strive for greatness. For example, I’ve heard from other parents about students who consistently excels in chess by winning not only in his age division but also in higher age groups during interschool tournaments. Similarly, our swimmers who earn medals while representing AISB bring immense pride to the entire school community. Highlighting such achievements in these visible platforms showcases the talent and dedication of our students while enhancing the school’s reputation. On a personal note, I recall a defining moment from my own childhood when, at 11 years old, my school principal publicly praised my “brave” performance in a football game during a class visit. Until that moment, I doubted my athletic abilities, but that recognition sparked a newfound confidence that led me to excel in sports thereafter. This experience taught me the profound impact that acknowledging individual effort can have on a young person’s growth. While celebrating participation is essential, spotlighting exceptional performances in the newsletter, on social media, and at assemblies strikes a powerful balance. It motivates students to push their limits, fosters school pride, and encourages everyone to represent AISB with distinction. Thank you again for your commitment to showcasing our students’ accomplishments. I look forward to seeing more stories that inspire and unite our community. Brett - Soi 20 & Soi 31 Parent When I initially brought my son for a private school visit with Ms Malini and trial day by kindness from Ms Sheridan and Ms Hannah, my husband was abroad and unable to join. As a result, he couldn't understand why I was so eager to enroll our son in AISB and move him to AISB immediately. After visiting AISB, my husband finally realized why it is the best place for our son's education. He now appreciates the excellent learning environment and opportunities that AISB offers. I wanted to personally thank you and the entire AISB team for providing such remarkable education to our family and others . Once again, thank you for your commitment to excellence. We are grateful to have our child enrolled in AISB and look forward to witnessing his growth and progress in the coming years. Soi 20 & Soi 31 Parent Both our daughters had an excellent experience at both AISB campuses, starting at nursery levels and progressing through to Grade 4 for the eldest before we returned to Australia. Both children thoroughly enjoyed their time at AISB and took advantage of after-school activities, additional learning services and other many other activities. Both of the girls integrated very smoothly back into the Australian school system upon our recent return and were fully up to speed with local levels and requirements. Mr Greg Cairnduff and the team created a wonderful culture within the school as it has expanded over the years and the network of friends, for both the students and parents that came from it, were magnificent. AISB and the associations were one of the highlights of our seven years in Bangkok, we miss them greatly and wish them all the very best for their future. Conrad - Soi 20 & Soi 31 Parent Very rarely do you come across an educational setup that becomes more than your home. AISB Soi 20 was exactly that for us. Our daughter took her first step in the world of schooling, and we were fortunate to be associated with AISB in Bangkok. The staff, the teachers, and the school leaders make you feel nothing less than their family. Extremely accommodating and understanding in every possible way. The teachers are the best gift this school gives any child and our daughter was blessed to have such teachers in her formative years. They shaped her so well that now she is blooming as a smart and confident young girl ready for her next steps in life. If we were to rate AISB Soi 20 on a scale of 1-10 ( 10 being the highest), we will rate it 25. Saurabh - Soi 20 Parent I am very grateful to be a student in AISB. The school taught me many engaging subjects and helped improve many of my skills. Learning in this school was very fun and interesting. I found chess to be one of my hobbies and I also found my passion in art through AISB. The great thing about this school is that it is a very interactive experience while learning and it makes me feel more engaged in many subjects. I would also like to add that being part as one of the Student Council was an incredible experience. It helped improve my leadership skills and it let us, as students to have more of a voice when it comes to decision making. We were able to suggest what we could do to make the school better. That was the part I really liked. AISB has also made me many great friends who were inclusive and kind. From whom I know of, none were bullies which make me happy and grateful. I love that I have been in this school for a very long time and how it has gave me so many fond memories that I can look back on. Thank you Mr Greg for giving a fascinating school with a great education. It was a very fun and memorable experience which made me a key part of who I am today. This is a school I will never forget. Pawit (Cooper) - K1 to Year 7 Student Cooper is now attending high school in Sydney. Fantastic school for the children to learn and grow. My child moved to AISB in mid-2020. The school promotes diversity and builds up the confidence of the young minds. The school educates the skills for the future, both academics and soft skills. I am so pleased with how my child has progressed, thank you. Apiradee - Soi 31 Parent Vice-President - Australian Alumni Association (Thailand) & Director, Austcham Thailand Our son Aleix joined Soi 20 campus when he was 18 months. It was an easy transition into nursery as all the staff (from teachers to nannies) were extremely caring of Aleix feelings. And as well to our own ones, as separation is hard as well for the parents !! We were kept updated and informed about his progress, his challenges and we felt extremely confident about the school system and staff. Meeting twice a year allowed us to have a personal touch of Aleix situation, but as well through Seasaw application. We had daily updates and could communicate with the teacher at any given time. At the beginning during lockdown the learning was challenging but the school was able to re-asses and adapt to the new normal. We were extremely happy how the school reacted. Aleix will miss his teachers and friends dearly. Gloria and Lluis - Soi 20 Parents I sent both of my children to AISB since nursery school because AISB made us feel very comfortable and always showed us support. The school essentially helped raise my children the way I did. The staffs are caring and well-organized, always wanting the best for the children. AISB is my favorite school, although my children are 9 years apart, I enrolled my second child to AISB straight away, there was no doubt that it was my top choice as they provide a strong pillar for academics and extracurriculars. When my kids were at AISB, they always looked forward to going to school as the teachers made activities and learning fun. My son had sparked his interest in chess which led him to compete in multiple championships and tournaments, rooted from his time at AISB and learning from his teachers. Parichat - Soi 20 Parent AISB is a great kindergarten. My older child joined with a tremendous amount of separation anxiety but the constant care and attention by the teachers and staff of AISB helped him adapt quickly and thrive. AISB provides a home like environment and is like an extension of a family. Both my children have had positive experiences and it is a school that I would strongly recommend. Ekta - Soi 20 Parent My experience over the past five and a half years as parent at AISB is very positive. Besides the very personalized and frequent contact with Teachers and Directors I am very pleased about the way how the school approaches learning topics and organizes the day by day operation. During the COVID period the school reacted quickly and effectively to put in place an online learning platform and came up with a well working mix between virtual meetings and online provided assignments. Overall I am very satisfied with AISB. Michael - Soi 31 Parent The Australian International School, Bangkok, was the first school that both my boys attended and I couldn't have hoped for better beginnings. With their warmth, understanding, and fun learning approaches, the teachers and support staff took two little babies in Nursery and helped nurture them into curious, confident, and happy little learners. The school's homely atmosphere made it a delight for them to attend every day. I am grateful for the strong foundation towards learning that my boys were given. Nawal - Soi 20 Parent Aseem started her schooling with AISB. As a parent, we were very worried about how she will adjust first time in school, but teachers in AISB were so good and loving. Aseem has fond memories of her first school. We were very happy with their curriculum and ECA's were particularly very good with so many options. Not only the teachers but the whole staff was very good. We had a great experience!! Ramneek - Soi 20 Parent I would like to express our gratitude to everyone at AISB. Dell has been enjoying every moment at school. He always says “I love Mr. Gareth” “ I love Ms. Sarah” “The nanny takes good care of me”. Mr. Gareth and his team are very professional. Everyone is very nice to him and encourages him to be the best version of himself. For the admin staff, everyone is nice and kind to us. Khun Shailly and Khun Oil are always supportive. We are very lucky to meet such good people here and very lucky to be part of AISB family. We couldn’t find words to express all our feelings but we love everything here and AISB is the best. I have been recommending the school to many families and some of them already have been here. We have found the best school but needed to move to another school when we moved house. I hope that when we come back to our old place in the future, there will be an opportunity for us to join in again.
