CIS report 2022

Dear Students, Parents and Guardians

We are so happy to have the children back in school learning with their teachers and friends. I believe that the threat of the COVID pandemic seems to be reducing as we come to understand how to live with this virus. We will continue to follow the situation closely and adjust our preventative measures accordingly.

You may remember that we had a visit from the Council of International School (CIS) in November. Their role is to provide expert validation of high quality international education and they only issue accreditation to the very best international schools in the world.  I am delighted to inform you that that the CIS Report has arrived and it validates that Bangkok Prep is an excellent school. This means that we have been fully and officially reaccredited and there are no major recommendations at all.

We should all be very proud that these statements are the summary of the CIS Report 2022:

“It is evident that the well-being of students, and the wider community, is a foundational belief at Bangkok Prep.”

 

“The quality of learning at Bangkok Prep is clearly a strength of the school. The curriculum planning in particular was very strong. Parents and students were both very complimentary about the teaching, and in particular, how supportive teachers had been during the extended period of home-based learning imposed by COVID-19 and all the additional challenges that this created.”

 

“The professional learning opportunities offered to the faculty were also seen as a strength by the teachers.”

As with all credible reports, there are a few specific areas for us to consider during the whole school improvement process. I will arrange for a more detailed report to be available for the community on Firefly next week.

This impressive report is a direct result of the hard work and support by every member of the Bangkok Prep Community. I would like to congratulate everybody at Bangkok Prep for this wonderful report and we should all be extremely proud of the part that we have played in the Bangkok Prep success story! I thank you all…

Warmest congratulations
