Professional Development Weeks 2026: Ready for a year of quality and growth

Before the 2026–2027 academic year officially began, UTS teachers and staff came together for Professional Development Weeks 2026 – two weeks dedicated to learning, connecting, and preparing for the journey ahead. At UTS, a quality learning experience for students always begins with the continuous growth of the educators who support them. UTS educators come together around a shared educational vision  Professional Development Weeks (PD Weeks) is an annual professional development programme at UTS, providing an opportunity for the entire team to reflect on achievements, update their knowledge, share experiences, and align on key priorities for the educational journey ahead. The programme began with a whole-school gathering that brought together the UTS community. During the event, educators who demonstrated dedication and made meaningful contributions throughout the 2025–2026 academic year were recognised for their efforts and impact in nurturing students’ talents. Addressing all teachers and staff, Ms. Anita Spittle – Head of School at US Vietnam Talent International School – reaffirmed UTS’s educational philosophy, vision, mission, and theme for the academic year, ensuring that every educator shares a common understanding and commitment to the School’s goals. Continuously enhancing the quality of teaching and learning A key focus throughout Professional Development Weeks was strengthening the team’s professional capabilities and further enhancing the quality of educational practice. The training sessions explored practical questions that educators encounter every day in the classroom: How can we establish and maintain positive expectations? How can we design a classroom environment that encourages students to become independent learners? How can we identify students’ different needs and provide the right support for each of them? Nurturing a growth mindset in every educator  If students are encouraged to continuously explore, learn, and grow, the educators who accompany them on that journey must embrace the same mindset.

UTS One – The one parent portal for UTS

UTS One is the official and all-in-one parent portal for the UTS community, designed to provide a seamless, integrated and modern connection between families and the School. Instead of using multiple standalone applications and communication channels such as ManageBac, the student pick-up and drop-off application, school bus app, service registration, club registration or unofficial Zalo groups, parents can simply access UTS One to stay connected with everything that matters in one place. As the School’s official communication platform, UTS One ensures that all interactions between parents and the School are efficient, transparent and consistent. Through UTS One, parents can monitor their child’s learning progress, timetable, attendance, homework, behaviour and achievements, while also managing student and parent profiles, staying updated with school news and events, submitting leave requests, registering for clubs and school services, and communicating directly with the School. By bringing these essential features together on a single platform, UTS One makes it easier for parents to stay informed and actively support their child’s learning journey. Looking ahead, UTS will continue to enhance UTS One by introducing new features, including online tuition and service fee payments, as part of our commitment to building a comprehensive digital ecosystem. This ongoing development aims to provide parents with an even more convenient and connected experience throughout their child’s educational journey at UTS.

What Is Project-Based Learning? Exploring a Modern Educational Approach at UTS

In the context of today’s constantly evolving education landscape, Project-Based Learning (PBL) has become one of the approaches adopted by many international schools to support students’ holistic development. At UTS International School of South America, students do not only acquire knowledge from textbooks, but also take part in real-world projects, actively explore ideas, and create their own learning products. So, what is project-based learning, and how is it applied to optimise students’ learning outcomes? This article will help parents and students better understand this learning model. What Is Project-Based Learning (PBL)? Project-Based Learning (PBL) is a student-centred educational approach in which students actively explore, research, and solve real-world problems through learning projects. Instead of only learning theories, students combine knowledge with practical experiences to develop thinking skills, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities.. Project-Based Learning is becoming increasingly popular in modern education The 5-Step Cycle of a Learning Project (*) A learning project following the Project-Based Learning (PBL) approach is often implemented through a clear process, helping students gradually transform knowledge into practical products. Below are the key steps: Step 1: Identifying Ideas and Driving Questions Students begin with a real-world problem or a guiding question under the teacher’s guidance, then define the goals and scope of the project. Step 2: Planning and In-Depth Research Students divide tasks, search for information, analyse data, and develop a suitable implementation plan. This stage requires students to apply critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork skills. Step 3: Implementation, Testing, and Adjustment During the implementation process, students apply what they have learned, test their solutions, and improve their products based on feedback. Step 4: Completing the Practical Product Based on their ideas and research outcomes, students complete products that can be presented, applied, or shared with others. Students create practical models and products in each project Step 5:
