The Prathom (Primary) Section

     The Primary section of the school covers Key Stage 1 (Prathom 1-2) and Key Stage 2 (Prathom 3-6). Amnuay Silpa’s primary section has a bi-lingual curriculum with the Thai and English syllabi sharing the teaching time equally. The school follows the National Curriculum for England and Wales during the lessons taught by the expatriate teacher, the other half of the syllabus follows the Thai National Curriculum. Therefore the children are taught both the Thai and English (Language Arts) languages. Mathematics covers similar topics with the expatriate teacher concentrating more on problem-solving activities, new mathematical language and terminology. Theme Studies and Science may focus on different topic areas, however, a common set of enquiry skills are taught.

 

    Our curriculum planning respects the individual needs of our pupils and is regularly reviewed and evaluated to make sure that the Immersion Programme delivers the quality of education that the children deserve. Tasks are differentiated to not only to allow access to the less able pupils but also to extend pupils of higher ability. Children receive regular extra support from in-class teaching assistants and also through a reading intervention programme in Prathom One.

 

     Parents are always welcome to visit Amnuay Silpa, please make an appointment through the school office. Prospective teachers may contact me by e-mail in order to set up a visit.

    In the Immersion system the children have the opportunity to work in small groups. This allows the teachers to provide more individual attention and gives the children space to work.

 

 

 

  

    The children engage in many outside activities such as Scouts, PE, Dance, ICT, Piano, Mad Science and, of course, playtime!

 

 

 

 

    A lot of emphasis is put on becoming a reader and learning to love books.
