Curriculum

IPS’s curriculum is modeled on the National Curriculum for England, tailored to accommodate both local and international students. In the lower years (Kindergarten to Year 6), the school follows a play-based Early Years/Foundation framework that supports personal, social, physical, and creative development.

As students progress into Key Stages 1–3 (Years 1–9), the full range of National Curriculum subjects is offered, including English, Science, Mathematics, Humanities, Modern Foreign Languages (such as French, Mandarin, and Hindi), ICT, PHSE, Art & Design Technology, Music, PE, and Thai language and culture.

For Key Stage 4 (Years 10–11), students transition into the Cambridge IGCSE programme, designed to build critical thinking, inquiry skills, problem solving, and global awareness.

This is followed in Key Stage 5 (Years 12–13) by Cambridge AS and A-Level courses, which prepare students for higher education with a focus on independent thinking, advanced argumentation, and data evaluation in a university-style learning environment .

Wellbeing

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

IPS integrates social and emotional development from early years onward, following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework. This includes promoting self-regulation, self-management, confidence, and relationship-building through structured activities and a supportive environment. These foundations are reinforced in assemblies, performances, camps, and field trips that encourage collaboration and interpersonal growth.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

IPS has a designated Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO) who provides ongoing support to students with identified learning needs throughout their schooling. The approach focuses on inclusive education, with most students’ needs being addressed directly within the classroom environment.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

The school offers an English Support Program.

Mental Wellbeing

IPS promotes mental wellbeing through a structured counselling programme based on the International Model for School Counselling Programs (Fezler & Brown, 2011). This framework supports students’ academic, personal, social, and career development and is adapted to suit the diverse context of international schooling. The school integrates Personal, Social, Health, and Economic (PSHE) education throughout its curriculum, using it to encourage student self-awareness, resilience, and confidence. A dedicated counsellor leads the programme and works closely with students, teachers, parents, and the wider community to ensure that all learners feel safe, supported, and accepted. The counselling programme is continually reviewed to remain relevant to student needs and school priorities. It also contributes to a broader effort to build an inclusive and respectful school culture.
