ES Virtual School Community Handbook & November 26th Virtual Parent Engage via Zoom

ISB students have been fortunate to have been in school learning face to face with their teachers and peers for more than three months now!  Although Thailand continues to be a safe place where schools are able to provide on campus learning, we have continued to plan for the possibility of virtual school in case it will be needed.  While we hope that we never have to implement these plans, having them and sharing them with our community is an important step in our community’s preparedness should we need to go to virtual school.

ISB families, students and faculty shared a wide variety of feedback about their March -June 2020 virtual school experiences which have greatly informed our 2020-21 Virtual School plans. Enhancements to the 2020-21 virtual school plans include an emphasis on:

  • consistency across the school and throughout the grade levels;
  • clearer communication to faculty and parents regarding the virtual school expectations; 
  • suggested daily schedules for all students and families as well as a defined work day schedule for teachers including collaborative team and individual planning time; 
  • significant increase in daily synchronous learning for students via large and small group lessons; 
  • plans to receive parent feedback on an ongoing basis; 
  • clarity of the Wednesday schedules for students, parents and faculty; 
  • increase in World Language synchronous offerings for students; 
  • Increased differentiation for students who receive EAP/LS Tier 3 support; 
  • Increased flexibility for students and families including an increase in optional learning tasks for students and families seeking more virtual school engagement.
