A smooth transition to Virtual School at BIS
On Tuesday morning, our teachers and support staff were already set-to-go for Virtual School. Although we would always rather be teaching face-to-face, we all understand safety comes first and so our second phase of Virtual School begins. Our average attendance of over 96% across the school shows how students of all ages have made this seamless switch into an alternate way of learning.

Finishing the term with a flourish!
I don’t know about you, but it seems to me that time is just flying by at the moment. It feels that we start each week on Monday morning with lots of time ahead of us, and suddenly it is Friday again! I suppose that is just a sign of a busy life and a purposeful school.

Developing 21st Century skills and attitudes
At BIS Hanoi, we think and talk a lot about preparing our students for the future. In a rapidly changing world, it can be challenging to try to predict what that future might look like, but what we do know is that our students will need to be true global citizens, able to appreciate the views of others and show empathy, in a proactive manner, if we are to hope to improve our world.

Back to school!
It was wonderful on Tuesday to be able to welcome all our students back to school following our two weeks of VSE and a two-week holiday for Tet. At the main entrance on Tuesday morning I was met with many pairs of smiling eyes – I could not see their smiling mouths because of the masks everyone is wearing! There was a real buzz around the school as students reconnected with their friends and teachers, and got back down to face-to-face learning.

A fabulous start to the new term
After weeks of preparation, planning and, I must add, considerable frustration with the delays, I am delighted to finally be in school. Leading the school remotely was a somewhat strange experience, and whilst not an ineffective strategy, no amount of technology can replace face to face contact; people together in the same space at the same time.
