Secondary

Welcome to Secondary

The Secondary Program operates differently from the Primary program.  Secondary Program students come from a variety of educational backgrounds including English Programs, English Immersion Programs and Thai Regular Programs. This mix of students presents both challenges and opportunities for our creative teachers.

The ideal candidate for the Secondary Program should be independent, adaptable, proactive when it comes to curriculum goals, and above all dedicated to improving students of all ability levels. They should also have teaching experience or possess TEFL training as well as a suitable background for the subjects they will teach. “Mathayom” or secondary classes are capped at 30 students per class, with several grade levels having more than one class. The periods are in 50 minute blocks with breaks throughout the day.

All Native English Speaking (NES) teachers will have a ‘homeroom’ they will oversee along with their Thai homeroom teacher counterpart. NES teachers are subject teachers, moving from classroom to classroom throughout the day to teach their respective subjects. Graduates in Math and Science fields are preferred for the upper secondary, but most importantly the ideal candidate should be open-minded and motivated to help our students grow.
