Introduction

We are proud to be the first and only international school that is accredited with the International Primary Curriculum (IPC) in Vietnam; a curriculum which we believe helps us to achieve our Shared Vision, embrace our community’s wide diversity and foster a love for lifelong learning.

If you haven’t already, we would encourage you to come and enjoy a visit to our peaceful, green and tranquil surroundings of District 2, HCMC, and see first-hand the tangible development of our learner’s intrinsic personal values, balanced with their academic goals. Our caring, supportive and internationally qualified teachers demonstrate their capacity to provide a more personalized learning (our maximum class size of 20 is one of the best learner/teacher ratios in the city) and a strong commitment to ensuring your child is healthy, happy and learning focussed.

At Saigon Star, we supplement the IEYC (International Early Years Curriculum), the IPC and the IMYC (International Middle Years Curriculum) with the English National Curriculum. We provide specialist teachers with expertise in Sports and Swimming, Music, Performing Arts and Mandarin. All of our teachers arrive fully qualified or licensed, with at least 3 years experience from their home country. Our aim is to provide all of our teachers with consistent, high quality professional development opportunities that positively impact our learners and ensures longevity in our journey together.

Strengths

International Early Years Curriculum

For students aged 2-5, we follow the International Early Years Curriculum, enhanced by daily Montessori classes.

Learning Principles

The IEYC is designed around eight learning principles, that we consider essential to children’s learning and development.

1. The earliest years of life are important in their own right.

2. Children should be supported to learn and develop at their own unique pace.

3. Play is an essential aspect of all children’s learning and development.

4. Learning happens when developmentally-appropriate, teacher-scaffolded and child initiated experiences harness children’s natural curiosity in an enabling environment.

5. Independent and interdependent learning experiences create a context for personal development and are the foundation of international mindedness.

6. Knowledge and skills development lead to an increasing sense of understanding when children are provided with opportunities to explore and express their ideas in multiple ways.

7. Ongoing assessment, in the form of evaluation and reflection, is effective when it involves a learning-link with the home.

8. Learning should be motivating, engaging and fun, opening up a world of wonder for children where personal interests can flourish.

Learning Strands

The IEYC is built around four Learning Strands that underpin all learning and development:

1. Independence and interdependence

2 .Communicating

3. Enquiring

4 .Healthy living and physical wellbeing

Each unit of learning links all four of these Learning Strands to relevant and engaging activities that can be adapted and extended to meet individual needs.

Units of Learning

Units currently include topics such as: To The Rescue!, This is Me, The Brilliant Bug Ball, Weather Wonders, Dinosaur Detectives, Ocean Treasure, Once Upon a Time and Animal Rescuers.

The units are based around exciting themes aimed to capture children’s natural curiosity.
