Grade 9

Students and parents are reminded that we have good support in review for our final exams, which will arrive before we know it. There will be some in class review but most teachers will also offer additional study / review sessions after school. It is important that students try and take advantage of these opportunities, please encourage them to do so. We also have a learning hub that our students can drop into at any time of the year. Teachers and learning support specialists staff this.

Students are also reminded that if they are interested in ISB summer school that they register as soon as possible. We have applications in our office, which require specific signatures, please have your son or daughter pick one up. Here is the link with information: https://www.isb.ac.th/learning-isb/academics/2016-summer-school

Grade 10

As we come down the home stretch toward the end of the semester, is your son or daughter well-organized for final exams?  If you can sit down with them and have them explain to you how they’ve organized their material and how they will study for exams, it can give you a good sense of whether or not they know how to prepare.  The better prepared they are, the less stress they will feel about their approaching exams.  Any time you or they have questions; don’t hesitate to contact their counselor!

Grade 11

Students are reminded to make use of their resources in regards to exam preparation (As exams are approaching) and to university visits and the university application process. If students are planning on visiting universities during their holiday and they have questions regarding how to schedule a university visit, they are encouraged to meet with their counselor.
