The Northbridge International School Cambodia Class of 2022 are embarking on the final stretch of their academic journey here at NISC with the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) World Exams.

A question that always stands out when we start any educational process at Northbridge International School Cambodia; is how we can determine if we are advancing positively about the objectives we have set for ourselves as educators.

One of the most significant features of the IB Primary Years Program (PYP) is transdisciplinary learning. Transdisciplinary learning allows students to create connections between various school subjects. It also enables students to gain essential skills that transcend the disciplines. At NISC,  Languages are also integrated through transdisciplinary, and here is an overview of what Languages class looks like at NISC.

Ms Annalise Stephens is the new Head of Inclusion at Northbridge International School Cambodia. To celebrate her appointment, we asked Ms Annalise about her background, what led her to work in education and later counseling, and why inclusion is such an important part of life at Northbridge.

As children grow, we help them to develop greater age-appropriate independence; they gradually learn important life skills such as decision-making, time-management and social skills. They learn how to live and work with others, and they learn how to make safe choices that help them to live happier and more successful lives.

Just over two years ago, Cambodia had its first Covid-19 case, and since that time, our students at Northbridge have being demonstrating their resilience, adjusting to new ways of learning, and continuing to strive to achieve their best. They should be commended for their adaptability and the overall positivity they have maintained.

Students at Northbridge International School Cambodia are encouraged to be ambitious. Through excellent and innovative teaching and learning experiences, we provide the right conditions for everyone to achieve their very best academically.

Most of our students at Northbridge International School Cambodia have ambitions for moving abroad following IB Diploma to study at university. Every year these graduates follow in the footsteps of our alumni who have attended some of the world’s best universities and whose success stories are inspiring proof of the exciting pathways which await them. We have prepared hundreds of past students for the transition from school to university, and have long perfected the recipe for ensuring them the best future international pathway. So, what’s key to setting them up for success?

Every step on your child’s learning journey at Northbridge International School Cambodia helps to shape their aspirations for what they might do in future. Each subject they explore, MIT professor they meet through Global Campus, expedition they go on to visit new cultures and communities - it all feeds into their ever expanding view of the world and their place in it.

For all of our students at Northbridge International School Cambodia our university counsellor plays a key part in helping them to understand and successfully navigate the pathway to their university of choice. Taking the step from IB Diploma to university is an exciting challenge for students, but there are many big decisions which sit between these two milestones. It is the role of the university counsellor to provide support and guidance to students so that these decisions are informed, manageable, and ultimately lead our students to securing a place at a university which suits their ambitions for the future.
