On April 4th at UTS, there was a Nobel Challenge academic contest for Secondary and high school students. The Nobel Challenge is not only an intellectual playground to help UTS-ers confidently assert themselves but also an opportunity for them to learn from the experiences of other students in the school about Natural Sciences subjects. The contest featured four teams, each with seven members ranging in grade from 6 to 12. Grasping knowledge is not enough, the teams also need to think and provide the correct answer within a certain time limit. With the spirit of enthusiasm and solid knowledge, the teams have excelled through 4 rounds and achieved flying color results. Hopefully these “learn to play, play to learn” activities will contribute to bringing an exciting atmosphere and a natural passion for the learning journey of each UTS-er!

As Vietnam becomes increasingly connected to the global community, international lower secondary schools have become a preferred choice for many families. Offering internationally recognised educational standards while remaining more affordable than studying abroad, these schools provide students with a high-quality learning experience close to home! So, what should parents consider when choosing the right international lower secondary school for their child? Explore the key criteria below with UTS. 1. Teacher-to-Student Ratio One of the most important indicators of educational quality is the teacher-to-student ratio. A lower number of students per teacher allows educators to provide more personalised guidance, closer academic support, and stronger relationships with each learner. When teachers have more opportunities to understand each student’s strengths and learning needs, students are more likely to stay engaged, build confidence, and achieve better learning outcomes. In addition, exposure to teachers with diverse backgrounds and expertise helps broaden students’ perspectives and enrich their learning experience Exposure to teachers with diverse backgrounds and expertise helps broaden students’ perspectives and enrich their learning experience 2. Campus Facilities Campus facilities are another essential factor when selecting an international lower secondary school. A well-designed learning environment equipped with modern classrooms, specialist facilities, and quality learning resources creates the conditions for students to thrive academically, physically, and socially. Parents should also consider a school’s history and educational experience. While established schools often have proven academic programmes and experienced teaching teams, it is equally important to ensure that facilities are well maintained and continuously upgraded to meet the needs of today’s learners. Given the significant investment families make in international education, it is reasonable to expect modern, safe, and student-centred learning spaces. School location should also be taken into account, including accessibility, neighbourhood safety, transportation convenience, and proximity to students’ daily activities. 3.

UTS is an inter-level bilingual school which integrates the optimized MOET program with the modern International program. With the education programs ranging from Primary, Middle School to High School, we bring numerous benefits to the development of our little “talents”. 1. THE CONSISTENT AND COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PATH The first benefit for students is the consistent and comprehensive development path. With the same education method applied from Grade 1 to Grade 12, students will not have to face the confusion at the transition stage or the difficulty to adapt to the new learning environment. This is an opportunity for students to promote their confidence and high learning spirit to discover their outstanding talents. 2. CONVENIENCE Convenience is another benefit of inter-level school, especially for families who have more than 2 children. Brothers and sisters in a family can study and explore the world at the same school. From that point, parents can save the commuting time and control family finance. 3. THE INCREASE OF LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES One more benefit of the inter-level bilingual school is the increase of learning opportunities. With lots of students at different ages, the process of exchanging and guiding lessons back and forth among the students becomes easier. In addition, the inter-level school also facilitates students to discover knowledge of a higher level with the enthusiastic support from dedicated teachers. In order for these activities to take place smoothly, UTS’ teachers and staffs always prove the spirit of “growing talents with care”. The final aim of UTS is equipping students with necessary skills to confidently conquer important milestones and contribute to the society.

Online talkshow: When education is defined by care Caring for children may seem simple, but in reality, it comes with many challenges. What does it mean to care in the right way? How can we show care without making our children dependent or passive? With the mission of “Growing talents with care,” care and attentiveness have always been top priorities at UTS. Let’s explore how this is implemented at UTS through the online talk show: “When Education Is Defined by Care”, taking place at 8:00 PM on August 13, 2021, on UTS’s fanpage. The program will feature: ♥️ Ms. Nguyễn Thị Hồng Ngọc – Head of Student Wellbeing at UTS. ♥️ Ms. Bùi Phương Anh – Primary Teacher at UTS. “When education is defined by care” means creating an environment where children can learn effectively, enjoy a more comfortable daily routine, and be motivated to unlock their full potential, confidently shape their identity, and adapt quickly to the ever-changing world. Join UTS in decoding the true meaning of “care” in education – so that we, as parents and educators, can support our children not only with love and responsibility but also through understanding, encouragement, and companionship. During the livestream, if you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment or inbox the UTS’s fanpage for a chance to receive a set of UTS International Curriculum books and many other exciting offers.
