INTERNATIONAL SECONDARY
SBIS Secondary is also divided into two key stages: Key Stage 3 (Years 7 to 9) and Key Stage 4 (Years 10 and 11). Our aim at SBIS is to provide a balanced education across the stages within a positive and stimulating environment, where students feel valued and can grow to their full potential. In our Secondary School, at Key Stage 3, students experience a wide range of individual subjects including Mathematics, English Language, Science, Bahasa Malaysia, Mandarin, ICT, Art, Music, Global Perspectives and Physical Education. At the end of Key Stage 3 all students sit for the CIE Checkpoint examinations in English, Mathematics and Science.
GROWTH MINDSET
Inspiring Children Towards A Growth Mindset
“Success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts.”
– Winston Churchill
The underlying process that supports our children in picking themselves up once again after each setback is of pivotal importance in the process of learning and the much-needed tenacity to brave their journey in lives. As such, inspiring children to embrace a ‘growth mindset’ as opposed to a ‘fixed mindset’ will continue to be the core principle in the process of teaching and learning for both students and faculty members of SBIS.
Students will be facilitated on their progress to continue trying new strategies and seek input from others when they face challenges – be it in the pursuit of intellectual, physical or emotional development. The impetus for ongoing improvement under LESB is fundamentally anchored by a group of passionate, qualified, committed and experienced teachers who embrace the same mindset that ‘When we stop learning, we stop teaching’.
