Not only does the IB programmes build a solid foundation for students right from the golden age, it also offers learning experiences that go beyond all limits.

Challenging roadmap – Rigorous accreditation process

The 51ԹϹٷApp (SNA) is 1 of 6th IB Continuum Schools in Vietnam, meaning SNA is an authorized school to teach all three IB programmes, including: Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme and Diploma Programme. It only takes less than 10 seconds to say that statement, but to be able to become an IB Continuum School, one needs many years to plan, prepare, deploy and undergo thorough accreditation process. The International Baccalaureate (IB), founded in 1968 in Switzerland, is widely recognized around the world. The program helps develop well-rounded individuals who is eager to learn, be knowledgeable, confident and interested in surrounding issues. By obtaining an IB Diploma, students rarely have to worry about which university will accept them, but rather how many scholarships they will receive, or which prestigious universities they will enroll. To be able to teach all three programs, it is a journey that only schools that offer a holistic system, professionalism in operations, excellence in teaching, long-term vision can meet the requirements. The IBO ensures the highest standards of every IB programmes through community collaboration and continuous improvement. In addition, each international school must go through a strict authorization process to be able to receive accreditation in terms of facilities as well as teaching qualifications. Therefore, parents’ assurrance about the quality of SNA – an IB Continuum School, is completely well-founded.

There are not that many IB schools in Vietnam that have received WASC (Western Association of Schools, Colleges and Schools) accreditation and are members of the CIS (Council of 51ԹϹٷApps). SNA is one of a few that meets all three of these prestigious organization. The fact that we are credited by the world’s leading organizations is a measure of prestige and a strong testament for our quality.

The earlier you start – The higher your success

One of the key factors that creates the prestige of the IB Diploma is its challenges. IB programmes are designed to combine theoretical and practical learning from research activities which are proven around the world and in the community. As a part of the curriculum, end-of-semester activities such as Celebration of Learning Exhibitions, Extended Essays, encourage students to think internationally, in a complex and hyper-connected world. Therefore, the earlier students learn IB, the better their ability to build a foundation; and the higher their ability to conquer this prestigious degree.

By enrolling at an IB Continuum School, students will inherit the quintessence of this prestigious program The IB Primary Years Program (IBPYP) is designed for students aged 3 to 12 years old. This level of education marks the beginning of a lifelong journey, developing children’s interest and cultural awareness to become active participants in their own learning process. At this level, IB focuses on building soft skills (creativity, collaboration, teamwork, critical thinking) and a love of learning, through dynamic curriculum and learning methods such as project-based learning and inquiry-based learning. This phase is extremely important for students to help students spark curiosity and the joy in learning, embarking on the journey of cultivating knowledge, honing skills of a global citizen.

Comprehensive experience – Transparent learning path

What is more important than the beginning stage of a student is that an IB Continuum School provides a consistent development path for each learners. As an IB Continuum School that deliver all three curriculum frameworks, SNA is able to integrate a long-term vision to a student’s development. Particularly, students are given a detailed and thorough entrance examination so that our qualified teachers can assess their background and skillset accurately, thereby providing in-depth consultation and building a specific development plan catered to each student. For instance, if a student has a strong suit for science subjects, they will be guaranteed to develop according to the most appropriate path. If a student needs to improve their social skills, we can also support them. This is only possible at an IB Continuum School when there is continuity in the program.

Seamless and State-of-the-art facilities

In an IB Continuum school, the infrastructure is built according to double standards: ensuring modernity and convenience, while also ensuring support for students to reach their maximum abilities in each stage. At SNA, functional classrooms are designed according to the children’s roadmap, the PYP music classroom with an age-appropriate instrument system, moving to the MYP, the musical instruments also “grow” with the children. The seamlessness in facilities helps maximize the students’ talents and abilities because students can only reach their full potential once they are given appropriate learning tools, materials and environment. Furthermore, SNA also offers high-quality equipments such as 3D printers, laser cutters in Design, Golf 4.0 in Sports (Physical Education)… to bring new and exciting experiences for students.

Longterm value – Outstanding result

“IB Profile Learner” includes 10 qualities that shape a students, such as: caring, knowledgable, inquirer, risk-taker, thinker, disciplined, balanced, open-minded, reflective, communicators. In a rapidly developing world, these 10 qualities are the “anchors” for children to stay resolute and unwavering in the face of challenges. The journey to build these characteristics takes time and efforts from students, families and the school – which is the reason why students should enroll at SNA as we also cultivate these values throughout all 3 levels. From PYP to MYP (11 to 16 year olds) – Building a strong academic foundation, MYP develops students’ confidence in taking charge of their own learning and making connections between theory and real life. And then there is the IB Diploma Program (IBDP) for students aged 16 to 19 years old – A future-ready program that encourages students’ inquisitive mindset to excel in their careers and in life. In addition, SNA offers a wide range of extracurricular activities for students. Many of these are teacher-lead activities such as sports, chess, cooking, music, language, and academic supports. The SNA student council also offers many other activities such as movie nights, homecomings, excursions, color runs, and open mic talent shows.

 

With nearly 20 years of establishment combined with the quintessence of international education, SNA Saigon South Campus is a trustworthy choice for families over many generations. By putting students at the center of our teaching, our practical learning methods will pave the way to success for each child.

These ten IB Learner Profile attributes collectively shape students into well-rounded, responsible, and globally-minded individuals who are not only academically capable but also socially conscious and ready to make a positive impact on society.

The Importance Of The IB Learner Profile In The IB Programmes

Beyond academics, the Learner Profile promotes global citizenship, ethics, and critical thinking. IB graduates emerge as empowered individuals ready to impact society through education, careers, or community involvement. It’s not just an educational framework; it transforms students into lifelong learners and responsible global citizens.

How SNA Saigon South Campus Implement the IB Learner Profile into our Curriculum

We ensure that lessons and activities promote the development of these qualities. For example, teachers may design projects that encourage students to be inquirers or thinkers, fostering curiosity and critical thinking. They create a classroom environment that values open-mindedness, principled behavior, and caring attitudes. Cooperative learning, discussions, and experiential learning are often employed. In addition, students may be evaluated not only on their academic knowledge but also on their ability to demonstrate attributes such as reflection, communication, and risk-taking.

According to Henley Passport Index, the world’s most “powerful” passport can travel to 194 countries and territories without a visa. If you compare one global curriculum to that passport that can open the door to numerous universities and colleges around the world, then the International Baccalaureate (IB) Programmes is definitely at the top of the list.

What is an IB Education compared to a more traditional approach?

Key aspects of what SNA offers students is focused on academic integrity which is a fundamental value for all higher-level colleges and universities. IB students differ from other students in more traditional settings because they are infused with academic integrity and have a deeper understanding of a global society including the cultures and views which provides them a deeper appreciation and acceptance of new views concerning their academic studies and their involvement in both our school community and the wider community within Vietnam and beyond.

In recent years, “student-centered learning” has been a trending keyword in education, and the IB curriculum is one of the few learning programs that truly embodies this ideal. IB students are active participants in the learning process and are provided ownership of their learning and a voice within the school community. In an IB setting we still have high standards, learning objectives, and standards, but students are not ranked among the student population. Instead, students are provided focused individual support to ensure they have a well-rounded holistic foundation.

Thanks to the two factors mentioned above, IB students excel in the development of stronger academic and social-emotional characteristics and compared to other academic programs and approaches perform higher academically. The core of an IB program is to begin students early with thoughtful and purposely designed interdisciplinary units. There are still elements of stand-alone subjects, but every individual in the world learns best when learning is interdisciplinary in nature rather than segregated into stand alone subject. As students progress from the Primary Years Program (PYP) in the Middles Years Program (MYP) the courses become more specific and subject teachers collaborate with Interdisciplinary units. Once students progress to the IB Diploma (IB-DP) program subjects are more focused and even more challenging.

At 51ԹϹٷApp (SNA) South Saigon, all students are encouraged to think critically and provided the necessary skills to solve complex problems. As a student-centered approach every student helps drive their own learning and are indeed more culturally aware and more able to engage with others in globalized world that is rapidly changing. The International Baccalaureate (IB) framework is the only program recognized by higher level institutions as a college preparatory program and this leads our students toward successful enrollment in some of the highest-ranking universities around the world.

What is the difference between an IB school and an IB Continuum school? Why is this important?

IB Schools offer any variety of the three key programs, Primary Years Program (PYP), Middle Years Program (MYP), and the Diploma Program (DP). An IB Continuum school offers all three programs which provides a seamless connection from elementary to high school further providing every student a challenging and balanced internationally global education. All programs are challenging and provide a framework for the high standards at 51ԹϹٷApp and are geared to the personal and academic achievement that is age appropriate. As a Continuum school, SNA Saigon South Campus fosters the development in all students to be good learners, resilient, responsible, culturally open-minded. The seamless transition from PYP to MYP and then to DP provides students a familiarity with the terminology and expectations of the program as well as a stronger connection and preparation as they grow from elementary to high school.

Difference between AP, A-Levels, and IB

The International Baccalaureate (IB) program differs from other programs such as A-levels and Advanced placement (AP). The A-Level program is ultimately made up of specific and separate subjects and activities. The IB program centers around a core set of competencies, values, and skills that are crucial to the balanced development of all students. Both the IB and AP programs are different that offer challenging and engaging coursework, but AP is focused on specific subject and IB is focused on a more holistic approach which is the preferred method of higher-level universities. AP is designed to provide students with college credit in specific course and IB already has this embedded in its holistic program and fully acknowledged and accepted by higher level universities. Feedback from elite universities around the world highlight that IB students are the preferred candidates and obtain priority when universities review for admissions.

SNA Saigon South Campus is not only focused on high standards, but also with social-emotional support as well. We offer a comprehensive child safety curriculum and provide training to all stakeholders inside the school and for parents as well. SNA takes the safety and well-being of all students very seriously. All teachers are qualified staff with an abundant amount of experience. They are also provided many opportunities to further develop annually. These methods include specific trainings, workshops, and monitoring to ensure they are continuing to grow as educators which leads to larger impacts for our student’s academic achievement.

Students are not only assured of an interesting curriculum and quality teachers, but can also fully develop in a comprehensive learning environment with modern equipment for all subjects: lab rooms, virtual golf room, or design classroom with modern laser 3D printer. All create a solid foundation, a “powerful passport” for students to head straight to a successful future.

SNA Saigon South Campus accepts admission for 2024-2025 academic year. If you enroll before the 30th of April, you will receive an exclusive scholarship of up to 50%. For more information, please contact our Admission Department via hotline: 0964466014.

Living independently and studying at the SNASaigon South Campus boarding has never been easy. Pham Huy (Brian), a 12th-gradestudent at SNA, has shared many memories, lessons, and personal growth experiences after more than 2 years of studying at the boarding. Let’s listen to Huy’s sincere sharing about boarding life at SNA Saigon South Campus.

Huy’s family supports the decision to live at SNA boarding.

Huy’s family resides in Dong Nai province, approximately 90 km away from Ho Chi Minh City. With the desire to develop himself for a better future, Huy chose to move to Ho Chi Minh City for the convenience of studying at the 51ԹϹٷApp (SNA). When deciding to be away from family and enroll at SNA, Huy carefully considered between renting a house or staying at the school’s boarding facility. “After thorough consideration, I chose to live at SNA’s boarding house. My decision received wholehearted support from my family. Until now, I still believe it was the right decision. The first reason I trusted this boarding option is the quality of the school’s infrastructure. The boarding provides each student with a living and studying space equipped with amenities such as beds, personal lockers, study desks, communal areas, and libraries. The second reason is that living at the boarding gives me the opportunity to integrate with new friends faster, and they have been very helpful to me during the initial period of getting acquainted with SNA,” Huy shared.

Throughout his time at the boarding, Huy has consistently felt joyful with what he has received. Huy explained the reasons: “Every morning, the boarding supervisors wake us up on time to go to school. Afterward, they carefully accompany us, the boarding students, to and from school. The daily support provided by the supervisors has made me feel safe from the very first day of studying in Ho Chi Minh City. Additionally, being reminded and monitored by the supervisors has helped me develop good habits and stay away from temptations when living away from my family. Every evening, I study and do homework together with other boarding students. Studying together motivates me to keep up with my peers and achieve the best academic results. It is because of the boarding facilities and the wonderful people here that I not only do not encounter any objections but also receive complete trust from my family up to the present moment.”

On the first day in the boarding house with an introverted personality

On his first day starting life in the boarding, Huy encountered some difficulties, but he managed to overcome them with the help of a special friend. Huy happily shared about that day: “I am an introverted person, so I often struggle with communicating with strangers. On the first day of enrolling and getting a room in SNA’s boarding facility, I felt nervous and anxious because I didn’t know anyone and didn’t know how to initiate conversations and make friends.However,the friends and teachers in the boarding took the initiative to help me overcome those thoughts. I remember on the first day, I didn’t know all the areas within the boarding facility. At that time, there was a friend who understood and approached me. He introduced himself as Thiện, and then he asked and assisted me with the activities in the boarding facility during the first few days. He also guided me to get acquainted with everyone in the boarding. Thanks to Thiện, I quickly adapted to life here, reducing my shyness and homesickness.”

Memorable moments before the exam days

Every day spent at SNA’s boarding is always filled with wonderful moments and memories for Huy. For him, the most memorable time was before the exam days when Huy and his roommates would study late into the night. “We supported each other in our studies. If I didn’t know something, there was always someone to explain it to me, and vice versa. Sometimes, when we felt hungry while studying, we would take out food and share whatever we had with each other. Those warm moments are unforgettable because I know that having such a friendship is not easy, so I cherish those moments.”

The greatest success is understanding myself and finding a personal mission.

Throughout his time living and studying at SNA’s boarding, Huy has noticed his personal growth over time. He shares the changes he has made within himself, such as managing his time, improving his self-study skills, and working effectively in teams. Additionally, Huy has become more confident, improved his communication skills, and demonstrated his abilities more strongly to others. These factors have supported and transformed him in both his studies and everyday life more than before. Speaking about his achievements while living at SNA’s boarding, Huy shares, “Perhaps the greatest success I have achieved during my time at SNA is finding myself. I understand myself better and have found my own mission. In the learning process, I use English more naturally and allow myself to surpass previous limitations. Regarding the awards I have received during my studies, I humbly share, ‘Up until now, I have not received any major awards, but for me, the improvement in grades day by day and achieving my set goals is a reward in itself and motivates me to strive harder every day.”

Some tips for living in the boarding house

“If I were to share some tips for those who aspire to live and study at SNA’s boarding house, I would like to share the following. When choosing to live in a boarding house, there is no need to worry. Feel comfortable and confident because your friends and teachers in the boarding will always wholeheartedly support you. The feeling of homesickness will gradually fade over time because after getting used to life here, boarding becomes your home. However, it is important to note that you should not violate the boarding rules, as any violations may result in writing a discipline record or, at worst, being expelled. The rules of the boarding are established to ensure a healthy living environment.”

Additionally, regarding studying in class following theInternational Baccalaureate (IB)Programme, Huy wants to share that students need to have a relatively strong foundation in English to meet the requirements for academic abilities, confidence, and teamwork in each subject. When choosing courses for the long-term learning process, select subjects that are your strengths so that you can develop yourself best in those areas. An important note for students pursuing the IB Programme: You need to complete the CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service) activities and the Extended Essay (EE). These are essential elements to receive the IB diploma for your academic journey at top universities around the world.

For Huy, the time spent living on the boarding is a turning point that changes him and becomes a valuable memory on his educational journey, both in the present and in the future. We wish him to have many valuable lessons, and maintain confidence, open-mindedness, and a thirst for knowledge while studying at school and in future endeavors.
