KIS International School is now officially approved by the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) and Thailand’s National Education Quality Assessment and Standards Board (ONESQA) as the only school in Bangkok to offer the four prestigious IB programs for children aged 3 to 19. Old.
Given the success of its current IB program, KIS is expanding its academic offering, providing yet another dynamic study program for our students. After a rigorous licensing process to ensure its high-quality delivery, students in grades 11 and 12 can now participate in the innovative career-related program.
The Career-Related Program (CP) is designed for students who want to specialize and pursue a path they are passionate about. This is a dual-enrollment program for students in grades 11-12 who have a strong interest in sustainable leadership, sustainable business, art, or design. Students take college-level courses and can earn college credit. The CP encompasses the best of both IB worlds – the theoretical principles and academic rigor of Diploma Program (DP), as well as tailored career-related studies and practical work experience. It aims to provide students with a solid foundation to support their academic studies and specialized training, as well as to support their success in the labor market.
The program plays to students’ academic strengths as there is flexibility in the subjects that can be chosen, allowing students to choose those in which they excel. Students learn by doing what they love while developing lifelong skills that enable them to move around the world as socially responsible citizens with a sense of purpose.
CP versus DP
Many families are familiar with the IB Diploma Program (DP) for students in grades 11-12 who are looking for a broader, holistic education in six different subjects: Literature, Additional Language, Social Studies, Science, Mathematics and arts. Students who graduate from the IB do not specialize early and they can leave their university and career options open. Within the DP, students learn to challenge the status quo in all their subjects by exploring Theory of knowledge. They practice a balanced life by engaging in Creativity, Activity and Serviceand solidify their skills for in-depth research, writing, and time management through a Extended trial.
The KIS Secondary School counseling team gets to know each student individually. They work closely with families to determine the most appropriate IB program course and subject mix that will challenge and prepare students for college and beyond. Counseling is progressive throughout the school in all programs and at all ages.
