Academics

Prem was the first international school in South East Asia to offer all 4 International Baccalaureate (IB) Programs. The IB Program is the No. 1 global curriculum recognized worldwide as the gold standard for pre-university preparation.

The Junior School comprises grades 1-5 and offers the IB Primary Years Programme. We offer a holistic, child-centered and personalized approach to learning. Holistic learning emphasizes the interconnectedness of various subjects and promotes a global understanding of the world. Students are encouraged to engage their minds, bodies and emotions to develop a deeper sense of self-awareness, critical thinking skills and the ability to apply knowledge in real-life situations. Creativity is at the core of our educational program in the Middle School, as is the development of students’ leadership skills.

A comprehensive education continues in Grades 6-12 through the Middle Years Program, Diploma Program and Career Related Program curricula. We believe in equipping our students with the knowledge, skills and values necessary to thrive in an ever-changing world. We place special emphasis on knowledge acquisition and academic excellence. Our curriculum is designed to challenge students intellectually, promoting a love of learning and a thirst for knowledge. We believe in equipping our students with a solid foundation in various disciplines, fostering critical thinking, research skills and a global perspective that prepares them for higher education and beyond. Creativity is another essential aspect of our educational approach. We provide a dynamic and stimulating environment that encourages students to explore their passions, think outside the box and embrace innovation. Through a wide range of artistic, scientific and technological activities, our students develop their imaginative thinking, problem-solving skills and a deep appreciation for the arts.
