The three year groups in the Junior School are Years 3, 4 and 5. Pupils in this phase of the school are aged between 7 and 10 years. We aim to provide an exciting, broad and balanced curriculum which builds on, and develops, skills introduced to them during their time in the Infant School.

The pupils are taught using the National Curriculum of England and Wales as a foundation. The teaching focuses on the knowledge, attitudes, skills and concepts relevant to each subject. Teachers use this curriculum to teach a range of subjects: Literacy, Mathematics, Science, History, Geography, Art, DT and PHSE. The Junior School class teachers teach these subjects. However, as a means of developing a pupil’s educational experience, specialist teachers teach some subjects. Subjects taught by specialist teachers include ICT, Music, PE, MFL,Libraly Thai language Thai Studies.

Here in Bangkok, we are lucky to have a wide range of external resources on our doorstep. Teachers make use of this ‘outside classroom’ in their planning and pupils go on several educational day trips throughout the school year.  A highlight of the year is Expedition Week.  During this week, pupils spend at least two nights away from home in a variety of locations around Thailand. 

Our curriculum is delivered in a variety of different ways.  We recognise the importance of a range of learning styles when delivering the curriculum and teaching is adapted accordingly. Pupils enjoy a range of practical activities in many subjects and have opportunities to work individually or as groups. 

Individual teachers provide a safe and secure learning environment for the pupils, where strengths and successes are celebrated and their personal needs are recognised. Pupils are encouraged to develop their independence throughout their time in the Junior School and teachers ensure that the learning experience is fun.
