SCHOOL PROGRAMME<br />

SISB adopts the Singapore and UK curricula and<br />

textbooks in our lesson delivery and learning.<br />

The core subject areas are English, Mathematics,<br />

Science, Chinese and Thai. The non-core subject<br />

areas include Physical Education, Moral Education,<br />

Art, Music, Health Education, Computer Study and<br />

Social Studies. Student’s performance is monitored<br />

through both formal and informal assessment<br />

modes. 70% of the student’s performance is<br />

through termly written examination while the<br />

other 30% is through project work, community<br />

involvement, classroom participation and work<br />

attitude. Our Primary 6 students take the Singapore<br />

IPSLE examination while the Year 11 students take<br />

the Cambridge IGCSE examination and the students<br />

in Year 12 and 13 take the AS/A Levels. We use our<br />

customised phonics teaching method to give our<br />

Nursery and Kindergarten students a head start<br />

in the listening, speaking and reading skills. We<br />

have a structured reading program from Nursery to<br />

Secondary levels. Students from Primary to Year 11<br />

classes are taught research, creative thinking and<br />

problem solving skills. Field trips. students’ work<br />

attachment and community involvements are part<br />

of the life skills programme to prepare our students<br />

for the ever-changing landscape.<br />

▪<br />

SCHOOL PROGRESSION<br />

JOURNEY<br />

SISB has transited the students’ performance from<br />

quantity to quality outcome. We now aim to carve<br />

out niches and special programmes with schools<br />

both locally and overseas. We are also developing<br />

our own staff training centre.
