At secondary, your child will follow the English National Curriculum. This culminates in IGCSE exams at 16 years old.
Our enhanced British curriculum, which is adapted to our local context in Yangon, Myanmar, combines the highest standards of subject teaching with transformative learning experiences. Taking a holistic approach, we’ll build your child’s knowledge and develop the attributes they need to succeed at IGCSE level and beyond.
At Key Stage 3, your child will study English, maths, science, history, geography, ICT, modern foreign languages, drama, music, art, and PE. This will give them a flavour of what it’s like to follow each subject at IGCSE level, helping them to make their choices at the end of Year 9.
Our students work with specialist teachers, who’ll encourage their participation, critical thinking, and independence. Our educators ensure every lesson is challenging and engaging, and adapt learning to different levels for students with varying needs. In every subject, we’ll stretch your child where they need it, identify areas for growth, and establish clear goals.
Project work is an essential component of our curriculum, too. Your child will work both individually and in groups, building their collaboration and problem-solving skills.
Offered by Cambridge International Examinations and Edexcel, our two-year IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) programme is rigorous, globally recognised, and unique to Myanmar. Each subject contains international elements, shaped by specialists.
Your child will follow a personalised curriculum based on their academic strengths and interests, as well as their ambitions for the future. They’ll experience variety and depth, complemented by life-changing experiences beyond the classroom.
Through one-of-a-kind experiences at The British School Yangon, we’ll broaden your child's understanding of the world and inspire them to learn with curiosity, confidence, and courage.
