- IGCSE & A-Level Program | AISB Secondary
Australian curriculum in Years 7–8. Cambridge IGCSE and A Levels. Personalised university guidance and preparation. Secondary School: Image Secondary School at Australian International School Bangkok Australian breadth. Cambridge depth. Secondary at the Australian International School Bangkok offers programs for students in Year 7 to Year 12 at our Sukhumvit Soi 31 campus. Students build broad foundations through an Australian-style education in Years 7 and 8, then move into internationally recognised Cambridge IGCSE and A Level qualifications that open doors to global and local universities. As a boutique school, every Secondary student is known individually by their teachers, leaders and pastoral staff. Smaller classes mean teachers notice early when a student needs extra support or more challenge, and every student has a real chance to lead, perform and make a team. Secondary School: About Us Secondary School: About Us Curriculum and Approach AISB offers a distinctive Australian to British Cambridge pathway. Years 7 and 8 combine the Australian Curriculum with selected Cambridge components, giving students the breadth to discover their strengths before they specialise. S tudents then study Cambridge IGCSE in Years 9 and 10 and Cambridge AS and A Levels in Years 11 and 12. Along the way, learning goes beyond exam preparation. Cambridge Global Perspectives, STEAM, robotics, AI literacy and entrepreneurship build critical thinking and real-world problem-solving. Teachers track each student's progress closely, stretching those ready for more and providing targeted support, including English as an Additional Language (EAL), for those who need it. Enquire Now Exceptional Results In 2026, AISB students achieved: • 99.6% overall IGCSE pass rate • 40% of IGCSE grades at A*–A • 86% of IGCSE grades at A*–C University guidance starts long before applications. Teachers and university counsellors help each student connect their strengths and goals to subject choices, courses and careers, with individual support through every step of the application process. Our focus is on every student reaching their own first-choice university. Recent AISB graduates have progressed to the University of Glasgow, the University of Brighton, UWE Bristol, Thammasat University and Mahidol University. Why Secondary at AISB? Academic Ambition AISB's Secondary pathway is purposefully designed to build year on year: an Australian–Cambridge foundation in Years 7 and 8, Cambridge IGCSE in Years 9 and 10, and Cambridge AS and A Levels in Years 11 and 12. Cambridge Global Perspectives, taught from Year 9 to Year 11, develops the research, reasoning and evaluation skills universities value. Our teachers are qualified and registered in countries such as Australia, the UK and New Zealand, and in 2026 our students achieved a 99.6% overall IGCSE pass rate. Personalised Progress At AISB, teachers look beyond grades. Each student's progress is tracked using baseline data, assessments, teacher observations, attendance and pastoral information, so teachers can see the whole picture. Students ready for more are stretched through depth, complexity and independent learning, while a tiered model of support provides small-group or individual help where it is needed. EAL support is built into mainstream lessons, and every key transition, into Year 7, into IGCSE and into A Levels, is supported through orientation, mentoring and regular check-ins. The Australian Balance AISB gives students breadth before specialisation. Alongside their academic subjects, students build robots, learn to code, explore how artificial intelligence works and how to use it responsibly, and develop entrepreneurial ideas through design thinking. Performances, showcases, music, sport, competitions, After-School Activities, excursions and field trips keep students curious and well-rounded as their studies become more focused. A Place to Belong AISB's boutique Secondary means every student is known by their teachers, leaders and pastoral staff. Opportunities are not reserved for a select few: more students make a team, take a lead role on stage or hold a leadership position through the Student Council, the House System and the Eco School programme. With classmates from 58 nationalities, students tell us they feel known, safe and welcomed, and families stay closely connected with teachers throughout the Secondary years. Empowered for Life Positive Education is built into AISB's daily timetable, with teacher-led sessions on resilience, goal setting, positive psychology, respectful relationships and online safety. In Years 7 and 8, the Komodo wellbeing platform helps staff notice when a student may need a check-in. Students also practise the life skills that set them apart at university and work, including peer mentoring, negotiation, presenting and professional communication. Secondary School: About Us Curriculum Year 7 & 8 Australian Curriculum & Cambridge Lower Secondary Years 7 and 8 follow AISB's own purposefully designed curriculum, combining the breadth and flexibility of the Australian Curriculum with selected Cambridge components. Students study a wide range of subjects, including STEAM, robotics, digital technologies and inquiry projects, so they can discover their strengths before choosing IGCSE subjects. These years are about building the habits of a successful Secondary learner: independence, organisation, critical thinking and confidence working with several specialist teachers. Students joining from AISB Primary arrive already known, with a detailed handover of their learning and support needs, and many have met Secondary teachers and students through experience days and Writers' Workshops led by Year 8 students. New students are welcomed through orientation, mentoring and regular check-ins, and the Komodo wellbeing platform helps staff notice early if anyone needs extra support. Year 9 & 10 Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) In Year 9, students begin the Cambridge IGCSE, the world's most popular international qualification for 14 to 16 year olds, recognised by universities and employers worldwide. IGCSE is a two-year course, with external exams at the end of Year 10. Depending on the subject, assessment can include written exams, oral, coursework and practical components, giving students different ways to show what they know. Many subjects offer Core and Extended options, so each student can be entered at the level that suits them best, with teachers and families deciding together. Cambridge Global Perspectives runs alongside students' IGCSE subjects, developing research, collaboration and the ability to evaluate different viewpoints. Students receive guidance on subject choices, regular feedback on their progress, and targeted support or extension where needed. Year 11 & 12 Cambridge AS & A-Levels In Years 11 and 12, students study Cambridge International AS and A Levels, one of the most widely recognised university entrance qualifications in the world. Students focus on the subjects that matter most for their chosen university course, studying each in real depth. Lessons shift towards independent research, extended writing, analysis and problem-solving, and students take greater ownership of their study and time management, the skills universities expect from day one. Cambridge Global Perspectives continues into Year 11. The move from IGCSE to A Levels is a significant step, so AISB gives it focused attention: careful subject guidance before students choose, and close monitoring and check-ins in the first months of Year 11. Small classes mean teachers know exactly where each student is and adjust challenge and support accordingly. Senior students also take on leadership roles across the school and continue Positive Education, and they graduate at the end of Year 12 with internationally recognised qualifications. University Preparation A Unique Opportunity to Prepare for University At AISB, university preparation starts well before Year 12. From the first IGCSE subject choices, teachers help students understand their strengths, interests and aspirations, and how these connect to A Level subjects, university courses and careers. Career fairs and personalised counselling let students explore different professions and possibilities before they have to make big decisions. Because AISB is a boutique school, guidance is genuinely individual: teachers, advisors and university counsellors know each student well, rather than working through a one-size-fits-all process. In Years 11 and 12, students receive one-to-one support researching universities in different countries, understanding entry requirements, choosing courses and preparing strong applications. Leadership through the Student Council, the House System and the Eco School programme, along with performances, competitions and entrepreneurship projects, gives students real experiences to draw on in their applications. Our focus is on every student reaching their own first-choice university, and recent AISB graduates have progressed to the University of Glasgow, the University of Brighton, UWE Bristol, Thammasat University and Mahidol University. Beyond The Classroom Sports, Music, Drama & Performances At AISB, what happens outside lessons matters as much as what happens in them. Secondary students compete in sport, perform in music and drama, and present their work at showcases and school events throughout the year. A varied After-School Activities programme lets students follow existing passions and try something new. As a boutique school, these opportunities are open to everyone: more students make a team, take a lead role on stage and represent the school in competitions, building confidence, teamwork and the commitment that comes from working towards a shared goal. Health & Wellbeing Student wellbeing sits at the heart of AISB Secondary. Positive Education is part of the daily timetable, giving students regular, teacher-led time to explore resilience, goal setting, positive psychology, respectful relationships and staying safe online, supported by approaches such as mindfulness and optimism. Physical wellbeing is developed through PE, sport and an active school life. In Years 7 and 8, the Komodo wellbeing platform helps staff notice early when a student may need a check-in, and because our community is small, teachers and pastoral staff know students well and work closely with families to provide timely, personal support. Residential Trips & Real-World Learning Every year, students in Years 7, 8 and 9 head off on three-day residential camps across Thailand. Recent camps have taken Year 7 to Ratchaburi to explore caves, hike and visit waterfalls, Year 8 to Khao Yai, and Year 9 to Rayong for kayaking and coastal exploration. Learning also extends into real-world competition: AISB students have won Best Position Paper awards at Model United Nations conferences, including Best Overall Position Paper across an entire conference hosted by King Mongkut's International Demonstration School, and have competed in robotics challenges, the World Mathematics Championship and the International Biology Competition, where an AISB student was named 2024 World Champion.

- Nursery 1 and 2 | Australian International School Bangkok
Nursery 1 and 2 Our Curriculum At the Australian International School Bangkok, we use the Australian Early Years Learning Framework ‘Belonging, Being and Becoming’ as our guiding curriculum document. AISB fosters a safe, nurturing learning environment for children from all backgrounds and abilities. We believe that the early years are a vital period in a child’s learning and development, and provide the foundation for life-long learning. Nursery 1 and 2: About Us Learning Focus The core focus of the Nursery program is to develop strong, trusting relationships as children transition from home to a structured learning environment. These teacher-child relationships are the foundations for children’s feelings of security, allowing children to explore, meet challenges, persevere and learn. In addition, these relationships allow educators to play a variety of important roles in supporting children’s learning. The best learning outcomes for children occur when there is a balance between child-directed play, guided play and adult-led learning. Children learn so much through play; it allows them to explore, discover, negotiate, take risks, create meaning and solve problems – all the important foundations for developing literacy, numeracy and social skills. Through this play-based learning, our skilled teachers can introduce and reinforce concepts for children to learn in way that engages each child’s interests, and captures their natural sense of inquiry, wonder and discovery. Specialist Classes Together with their homeroom program which is guided by the EYLF, specialist classes provide further opportunities to develop the breadth and depth of the children’s skills and understandings. Nursery children attend Library, an Early Years Music Program, Swimming and a Perceptual Motor Program that fosters an integrated approach to fine and gross motor development. Community Partnership The AISB family is a rich and vibrant blend of cultures, backgrounds and experiences, and when your family joins us, we want to get to know you. By building strong, meaningful relationships with all our families, we can individualise experiences to better suit your child’s culture, interests, needs, abilities, disabilities and learning style. Families receive regular communication from the home teacher about their child’s program, progress and learning. Parents are also encouraged to contribute information about what their child is doing and learning outside of school, as this continuity between home and early learning can greatly enhance your child’s learning and development. Families are also encouraged to participate in a wide range of celebratory events throughout the year. Nursery 1 and 2: Activities
- Testimonials | Australian International School Bangkok
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.

AISB follows the Australian Early Years Learning Framework in Early Years, the Australian Curriculum in Primary, a hybrid Australian–Cambridge curriculum in Years 7–8, then Cambridge IGCSE in Years 9–10 and Cambridge AS and A Levels in Years 11–12. Our purpose is to empower compassionate young leaders for life by combining academic ambition, personal attention and balanced development. Why do families choose AISB? Families choose AISB because every child is genuinely known. Smaller classes let teachers understand each student's personality, strengths and needs, and notice early when extra support or challenge is needed. Families also value the clear Australian-to-Cambridge academic pathway, the warm and safe community, strong English development in an international environment, and the central Sukhumvit location. AISB is small enough to know every family while offering the specialist teaching, facilities and opportunities of a larger international school. What does "boutique international school" mean at AISB? At AISB, boutique means a deliberately smaller school where students are known by name, teachers know each child's story, and families are partners in learning. Smaller scale also means more opportunities per student: more students make a team, take a lead role in a performance or hold a leadership position, rather than these opportunities going to a select few. The school's values are Wellbeing, Respect, Integrity, Community, Personal Best and Global Outlook. Where are AISB's campuses? AISB has two campuses in central Sukhumvit, Bangkok. The Soi 20 campus is designed for Nursery to Year 1, with age-appropriate classrooms, playgrounds, green outdoor areas, swimming and water-play facilities. The Soi 31 campus serves Primary and Secondary. Foundation and Year 1 students at Soi 31 campus learn at Amaroo, a purposefully renovated campus for younger Primary students, located next to the Soi 31 Primary campus. Primary students use the AISB Innovation Centre for STEAM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics). What makes AISB distinctly Australian? AISB follows the Australian Early Years Learning Framework and the Australian Curriculum, giving students breadth and balance before they specialise. Australian values such as mateship, egalitarianism, resilience, diversity and multiculturalism run through school life, creating a culture that values fairness, participation and having a go. Students celebrate Australian occasions such as Australia Day and ANZAC Day together. These celebrations give Australian families a connection to home, and invite international families to discover and share in Australian culture and traditions as part of the AISB community. How big are classes at AISB? AISB keeps classes deliberately small so teachers can personalise learning. Classes typically have 15–18 students, and Secondary classes are often smaller. Every Early Years and Primary class has a Teaching Assistant working alongside the teacher, giving students more adult support. How international is the AISB community? AISB students come from 58 nationalities. Lessons are taught in English, and Australian values such as mateship, egalitarianism, resilience, diversity and multiculturalism sit alongside a strong global outlook. Students regularly develop English confidence quickly through daily immersion in this international environment. Which families is AISB a good fit for? AISB suits families who want their child to be known, challenged and supported in a close, caring community. It is a particularly good fit for: • International families: AISB welcomes families from 58 nationalities, including from Europe, the USA, Asia, Southeast Asia and the Asia-Pacific. Children learn in English alongside classmates from around the world, families quickly find a welcoming community, and children joining from other school systems are supported to settle in and continue their learning. • Families who want academic rigour and quality: a clear pathway from the Australian Curriculum to Cambridge IGCSE and A Levels, evidence-informed teaching through the AISB High Quality Teaching and Learning Framework, and regular progress tracking. In 2026, AISB students achieved a 99.6% overall IGCSE pass rate, with 40% of grades at A*–A. • Families who value breadth and balance: strong academics alongside wellbeing, creativity, sport and the arts, with time to explore many subjects before specialising. • Families looking for a close community: smaller classes and a boutique school mean children are known by name, and parents get to develop close relationships with teachers and other families. • Thai families: daily English immersion with classmates from 58 nationalities builds confident English and friendships around the world, alongside an internationally recognised pathway. • Australian families: the Australian curriculum, values and celebrations such as Australia Day and ANZAC Day offer a connection to home, and continuity if the family returns to Australia. • Families living in Sukhumvit: AISB's central campuses on Sukhumvit Soi 20 and Soi 31 mean a shorter journey for families living and working nearby. • Families aiming for universities in Thailand or overseas: Cambridge IGCSE and A Levels are recognised worldwide, and recent graduates have progressed to universities in the UK as well as Thammasat University and Mahidol University. AISB Curriculum Overview What curriculum does AISB follow? AISB offers one connected pathway from ages 18 months to 18 years: • Nursery to Pre-K2: the Australian Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF): Belonging, Being and Becoming. • Foundation to Year 6: the Australian Curriculum Version 9.0, with Foundation acting as a bridge from the EYLF. • Years 7–8: a purposefully designed hybrid of the Australian Curriculum and selected Cambridge components. • Years 9–10: Cambridge IGCSE. • Years 11–12: Cambridge International AS and A Levels. Why does AISB combine the Australian and Cambridge curricula? AISB combines the breadth and holistic development of an Australian education in the formative years with the academic rigour and specialisation of Cambridge in the senior years. Students explore a wide range of subjects and develop critical thinking, creativity and independence before specialising. They then move into internationally recognised qualifications with the knowledge and study skills needed for university. How is the Australian curriculum different from the American or British systems? The main differences are in year levels and in approach: • Year levels: Australian schools start with Foundation, followed by Years 1 to 12. British schools start with Reception and run to Year 13, and American schools run from Kindergarten to Grade 12. AISB year levels are one number behind the British system: AISB Year 7 is equivalent to British Year 8, American Grade 7 and Thai Mor 1. • Graduation: AISB students graduate at the end of Year 12, at the same age as students finishing British Year 13 or American Grade 12. They complete Cambridge A Levels in Year 12, so they finish school at the same age, and with the same internationally recognised qualifications, as students at British-curriculum schools. • Approach: the Australian Curriculum gives students breadth across many subjects for longer before they specialise. Alongside subject knowledge, it develops general capabilities such as critical and creative thinking, personal and social skills, and intercultural understanding. Many children join AISB from British, American, Thai and other education systems. During admissions, AISB works with each family to find the right year level, so their child can seamlessly transition to the appropriate year level when they join our school. Early Years (Nursery to Pre-K2) What is the Early Years approach at AISB? AISB's Early Years programme is guided by the Australian Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF): Belonging, Being and Becoming. Children learn through a balance of child-initiated play, guided experiences and intentional teaching. Teachers observe each child, then question, model language, introduce vocabulary and pose problems to extend their thinking. Play, wellbeing and academic learning are treated as partners, not competing priorities. Is play-based learning academic enough to prepare my child for school? Yes. At AISB, play is purposeful and teacher-led learning is built into it. Children develop early literacy through stories, songs, phonological awareness and mark-making, and early mathematics through counting, sorting, patterns, shapes and measurement. Teaching becomes progressively more explicit and structured towards Foundation, so children move into formal learning gradually rather than abruptly. How does AISB build early literacy? AISB follows a clear literacy pathway. In Pre-K2, the PreLit programme develops oral language and phonological awareness through structured activities. From Foundation to Year 2, InitiaLit provides systematic, explicit teaching of phonics, decoding, spelling, vocabulary, fluency, comprehension and writing. Students who need extra help in Years 1–2 receive small-group support through MiniLit SAGE, aligned with the same pathway. How does AISB support social and emotional development in young children? AISB uses the Kimochis social-emotional learning programme in Early Years. It gives young children practical language and strategies for understanding emotions, communicating, building friendships and solving problems. This continues through the BounceBack wellbeing and resilience programme as children move into Primary. How does AISB help young children settle in? Belonging comes first. Before starting, younger children attend orientation play sessions to meet their teachers and explore their classroom in a relaxed way. In the first weeks, teachers focus on connection, predictable routines and getting to know each child, recognising that every child settles at a different pace. Families stay connected through regular communication and the Seesaw learning portfolio. What specialist classes do Early Years children have? As children move through Early Years into Foundation and Year 1, specialist learning includes Physical Education, Swimming, Music, Thai Language, Media Arts, Digital Technology and Chess. After-school activities, performances and school events add further opportunities for our youngest learners. Primary (Foundation to Year 6) How is teaching in AISB Primary structured? AISB Primary teaches the Australian Curriculum through the AISB High Quality Teaching and Learning Framework. The framework is built on four evidence-informed pillars: Explicit Instruction, Differentiated Instruction, Collaborative Learning and Assessment for Learning. This gives consistent, high-quality teaching across every classroom while letting teachers respond to individual learners. How does AISB teach reading and writing in Primary? AISB uses structured, evidence-informed literacy teaching aligned with the science of reading. From Foundation to Year 2, InitiaLit (by MultiLit) teaches phonemic awareness, phonics, decoding, spelling, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension and writing. This is supported by the Heggerty phonemic awareness programme and decodable readers matched to each child's progress. Guided Reading continues across Primary, and whole-school writing tasks are moderated by teachers four times a year to track progress consistently. How does AISB teach mathematics? AISB uses the Maths Trek programme for a consistent approach across Primary. Children build number sense, fluency, reasoning and problem-solving daily, using concrete materials and real-world problems to develop understanding rather than memorising procedures. Students who need extra help receive targeted intervention, and those ready for more challenge take part in enrichment and competitions such as Kangaroo Maths and SEAMO. How does AISB track student progress in Primary? AISB uses ongoing assessment rather than relying on a single test. PAT Reading and PAT Mathematics provide standardised data alongside classroom tasks, observations and work samples. Teachers meet regularly in Professional and Collaboration Time (PACT) and Data Talks to answer three questions for each student: where are they now, where do they need to go next, and what teaching will get them there? What is inquiry-based learning at AISB? AISB combines explicit teaching with interdisciplinary Units of Learning. Students learn essential skills directly, then apply them through hands-on, collaborative investigations that connect subjects. A Humanities concept, for example, might be explored through Art, Mathematics, STEAM or Digital Technologies. Visible thinking routines build critical and evaluative thinking. What languages do AISB Primary students learn? All lessons are taught in English. From Year 2, students also have the opportunity to learn an additional foreign language. Secondary and University Preparation (Year 7 to Year 12) What do students study in Years 7 and 8? Years 7 and 8 combine the Australian Curriculum with selected Cambridge components. This keeps the breadth of an Australian education while progressively introducing the depth, challenge and academic skills students need for IGCSE in Year 9. The curriculum includes STEAM, robotics, digital fluency and inquiry. The move into Cambridge is gradual, not an abrupt switch between systems. When do AISB students sit IGCSE and A Level exams? AISB students study Cambridge IGCSE in Years 9 and 10 and sit their IGCSE exams at the end of Year 10. They then study Cambridge AS and A Levels in Years 11 and 12. Cambridge Global Perspectives is taught from Year 9 to Year 11. What are AISB's IGCSE results? In 2026, AISB students achieved a 99.6% overall IGCSE pass rate, with 40% of grades at A*–A and 86% at A*–C. Because AISB's cohorts are small, every result represents an individual student whose teachers know them well and support them throughout the Cambridge pathway. Where do AISB graduates go to university? Recent AISB graduates have progressed to universities including the University of Glasgow, University of Brighton, UWE Bristol, Thammasat University and Mahidol University. AISB focuses on helping each student gain a place at their own first-choice university and course, rather than measuring success by a single league table. How does AISB prepare students for university and careers? Guidance starts well before applications. Teachers and university counsellors help each student connect their strengths, interests and goals to subject choices, courses and careers. Students receive individual support with subject selection, researching universities in different countries and preparing applications. Career fairs and personalised counselling help students explore options early. What is it like to be in a smaller Secondary school? In AISB's smaller Secondary, every student is known individually by teachers, leaders and pastoral staff. Students have a realistic chance to make a team, take a lead role, perform or hold a leadership position. Teachers notice early when a student needs extra support or challenge, and communicate closely with families. What leadership opportunities do Secondary students have? Secondary students can lead through the Student Council, the House System and the Eco School programme. They also develop practical life skills such as peer mentoring, negotiation, presenting and professional communication. Entrepreneurship and design-thinking projects, performances and showcases give students further experience to draw on in university applications. How does AISB support students moving from Year 6 into Year 7, and from Year 8 into IGCSE? AISB plans each transition carefully: Primary to Secondary, Year 8 into IGCSE, and IGCSE into A Levels. Support includes orientation and experience days, mentoring, information sessions and a detailed handover of each student's learning data, writing samples and support needs. Students already know the school's values and many of its staff, so they can focus on their learning rather than adjusting to a new school culture. Why should my child stay at AISB from Primary into Secondary? Staying at AISB gives continuity without standing still. Students enter a new Secondary experience while remaining in a community that already knows them and close friendships they have developed through their primary years. Teachers receive a full handover of each student's learning and support needs, existing friendships provide stability during adolescence, and the Australian-to-Cambridge pathway continues seamlessly into IGCSE and A Levels. Learning Support and Enrichment Programs Does AISB support students with learning needs? Yes. AISB uses a tiered model of support. Every student first receives high-quality, differentiated classroom teaching. Where assessment shows a student needs more, they receive targeted small-group intervention, such as MiniLit SAGE for literacy in Years 1–2 or small-group mathematics intervention. Students who need more intensive help can receive individual plans and specialist support. Classroom teachers, Learning Support and EAL staff work together, and support is reviewed regularly so support evolves as the student's needs change. How does AISB identify students who need extra help? AISB identifies needs early through regular assessment, teacher observation and collaborative Data Talks, rather than waiting for a problem to grow. In Secondary, teachers combine baseline data, assessments, attendance and pastoral information to build a full picture of each student. Families are involved in planning any additional support. Does AISB support children who are still learning English? Yes. English is developed throughout the school day, not only in EAL lessons. Students' English levels are assessed at enrolment, and progress is monitored using the internationally recognised WIDA assessment. Students needing significant support start in Intensive EAL, move to General EAL as they grow in confidence, and then participate fully in mainstream classes. The aim is full access to the mainstream curriculum, not permanent separation from it. How does AISB challenge high-achieving students? AISB extends able students through greater depth, complexity and higher-order thinking, not simply more work. Students are identified through several sources of evidence, not a single test. Grouping is flexible and based on current learning needs rather than fixed labels. Enrichment includes mathematics competitions such as Kangaroo Maths and SEAMO, robotics and eSports competitions, chess, the performing arts and leadership roles. Student Wellbeing How does AISB support student wellbeing? Wellbeing is built into school life at every stage: Kimochis in Early Years, BounceBack in Primary, and proactive wellbeing education in Secondary covering mindfulness, optimism and positive education. In Years 7–8, the Komodo wellbeing platform helps staff notice changes early. Because AISB is small, teachers and pastoral staff know students well, notice changes quickly and work closely with families. What is AISB's approach to behaviour? AISB uses a proactive, restorative approach. Three shared questions guide behaviour across the school: Is it safe? Is it fair? Does it show that we care? Teachers explicitly teach strategies for managing emotions, conflict and relationships, and positively reinforce the school's values. When things go wrong, students are helped to understand the impact of their actions, take responsibility and repair relationships. How does AISB prevent and respond to bullying? AISB focuses first on prevention. Students are explicitly taught what respectful behaviour looks like, how to manage friendships and disagreements, and how to ask for help, supported by the Kimochis programme in Early Years and BounceBack in Primary. Because AISB is a small school, staff know students well and notice early when something is not right. If a concern is raised, staff listen to everyone involved, work closely with families and respond in a calm, restorative way, helping students understand the impact of their actions, repair relationships and feel safe at school. Beyond The Classroom What is the AISB Innovation Centre? The AISB Innovation Centre is a dedicated STEAM facility used by AISB Primary students. Specialist teachers lead hands-on learning in robotics, coding, digital technologies, design and media. STEAM is linked to classroom Units of Learning, so students apply Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics to real problems rather than learning technology in isolation. How does AISB teach students about AI and technology? AISB develops digital skills progressively from Primary to Secondary. Students learn coding and computational thinking, often through robotics, and create digital content rather than only consuming it. They study how AI works, including its benefits and limitations, and learn to question the accuracy of AI-generated information. Digital citizenship, online safety, privacy and ethical use are taught throughout, keeping human creativity and judgement central. What sports, arts and activities are available at AISB? AISB students take part in competitive and recreational sport, swimming, PE, music, drama, productions, visual arts, chess, robotics and eSports competitions, mathematics challenges and a varied After-School Activities programme. Primary students attend residentials and curriculum-linked excursions. Secondary students take part in performances, showcases, competitions and field trips. Why are performances important at AISB? Performances build confidence, communication and presentation skills, teamwork and persistence. Every Early Years and Primary student performs, at a level suited to their age, so children with different strengths have a chance to shine. Performances also bring families together as a community. AISB Community & Culture What is the culture like at AISB? AISB is a warm, close-knit school where students are known by name and greeted each morning. Students say they feel safe, happy and welcomed, with strong friendships and a real sense of belonging. Everyday behaviour is guided by three simple questions: Is it safe? Is it fair? Does it show that we care? Relationships matter at AISB, between students, teachers and families alike. What are AISB's values? AISB's six values are Wellbeing, Respect, Integrity, Community, Personal Best and Global Outlook. They shape daily school life rather than sitting on a wall: they guide how students treat one another, how behaviour is managed, and the high expectations every student is encouraged to meet through their Personal Best. How do students have a voice at AISB? Students are encouraged to lead and contribute from a young age. Primary students can join the Student Council, become sports captains and speak at assemblies. Secondary students lead through the Student Council, the House System and the Eco School programme. At every stage, Student-Led Conferences give students ownership of their learning by presenting their progress and goals to their families. Family Engagement and Parent Involvement How does AISB communicate with parents? From Nursery to Year 3, families see their child's learning through Seesaw, which also builds a portfolio of their progress over time. Families also receive newsletters, attend parent information sessions, welcome coffees and curriculum workshops, and take part in Student-Led Conferences, where students present their own learning and goals. How does AISB help new families settle in? Before starting, families receive information about their child's programme and routines and meet teachers. Younger children attend orientation play sessions. In the first weeks, teachers focus on belonging, monitor each child's academic, social and emotional transition, and keep in close contact with families. EAL support is available where needed. How does AISB support expat families moving to Bangkok? AISB's central Sukhumvit location makes daily life easier for families living and working in the city. New families join an international community of 58 nationalities, and are welcomed through orientation sessions, welcome coffees and parent information evenings. AISB helps families understand how their child's previous schooling maps onto Australian year levels, and EAL support helps children who are still developing their English settle quickly. Teachers stay in close contact during the first weeks so families feel informed while everyone adjusts to a new country and a new school. Is AISB a good fit for Thai and local families? Many local families choose AISB for its genuinely international environment. With students from 58 nationalities, classes bring together children from many different countries, so English becomes the shared language of the school day: in lessons with teachers, and in the playground with friends. This daily immersion builds strong English skills and the confidence to use them naturally, alongside friendships with children from around the world. Families also value AISB's internationally recognised Cambridge qualifications, which open doors to universities in Thailand and overseas: recent AISB graduates have progressed to Thammasat University and Mahidol University as well as universities in Japan and the UK. Smaller classes mean teachers know each child well and keep families closely involved in their learning. How can parents get involved in the AISB community? Families are a big part of school life at AISB, and there are many ways to be involved: • Community events: Events such as Donuts for Dads bring parents into school to spend time with their children and meet other families. • Performances: Families are invited to watch every Early Years and Primary student perform, along with Secondary showcases and school events. • Student-Led Conferences: Students present their learning and goals to their parents, so families hear about progress directly from their child. • Volunteering: parents can contribute their time and talents, for example through the Costume Committee, which helps bring school performances to life. • Learning together: Curriculum workshops, welcome coffees and parent information sessions help families understand how their child learns.
