Today, investing in a high-quality learning environment for children is becoming increasingly important. Among the available options, international schools are gradually asserting their position as an ideal choice for fostering a child’s holistic development. So what makes the international school model stand out and attract growing interest from parents? Let’s explore the key factors in the article below.

 

Understanding the International School Model

The international school model in Vietnam refers to educational institutions that integrate globally recognized international curricula into their core academic programs, with English as the primary language of instruction and communication. Unlike public or private domestic schools, international schools aim to meet global education standards, nurturing globally-minded thinking and preparing students for international learning and working environments.

Currently in Vietnam, the international school system is thriving with two main models: fully international schools (monolingual international) and bilingual international schools. These models differ in terms of curriculum, language of instruction, tuition fees, and student outcomes. Depending on their educational goals and selection criteria, families can consider the model that best suits their child’s needs.

Criteria Fully International School  Bilingual International School
Curriculum 100% international programs (IB, Cambridge, A-levels, etc.) Combination of international programs (A-levels, GCSEs, AP, etc.) and Vietnam’s Ministry of Education curriculum
Language of Instruction 100% English used in both learning and communication Both Vietnamese and English used concurrently
Reference Tuition Fees ~ VND 500–600 million/year ~ VND 200–400 million/year
Facilities Both offer modern, internationally standardized facilities
Career/Study Pathway Early overseas study (possibly from high school) in countries like the US, UK, Australia,.... Flexible: Attend international universities in Vietnam or study abroad

 

Benefits of Enrolling Your Child in an International School

Globally Recognized Curriculum and International Standards

One of the key highlights of international schools is their modern curriculum, widely recognized around the world such as A-levels, GCSEs (UK), or Advanced Placement (US), offering a clear academic roadmap and globally valid certifications. These schools employ advanced, student-centered teaching methods that foster critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills. Students are also exposed to a variety of globally relevant subjects, equipping them with both academic and practical life skills.

Beyond academics, international schools prepare students for overseas education through career counseling, presentation skills training, and personal portfolio building via community and individual projects. This helps students confidently pursue top universities worldwide and develop careers in dynamic international environments with a strong foundation of knowledge and skills.

Holistic Skill and Knowledge Development

International schools aim for holistic education, ensuring that students are equipped not only with solid academic knowledge but also with essential soft skills such as communication, teamwork, critical thinking, and time management.

Learning goes beyond textbooks through extracurricular activities, hands-on projects, and diverse experiential programs. This environment encourages students to confidently express themselves, develop independent learning, and become proactive in every situation.

Enhanced Language Proficiency

At international schools, English is the primary language used in both academics and daily communication. Students are immersed in English not only through textbooks but also in lessons, group projects, extracurriculars, and natural conversations with teachers and peers. This setting enhances their language reflexes and boosts their confidence in communication. Early fluency in English also provides a strong advantage when entering international universities or working in multinational companies.
