Philosophy and Objectives

We know that providing what students need to become exceptional adults requires more than just academics, therefore we embrace the philosophy of preparing well-rounded students for the world and better prepare them to face the challenges of the future.

Our Mission

Empower and inspire a community of learners to achieve balanced excellence through academic and community engagement, establishing themselves as role-models for tomorrow.

Our Values

Balanced

Learn through Cambridge’s play-based learning

We want our students to find a Balance between a good and challenging academic curriculum as well as stimulating and competitive extra-curriculum program. We accept that not everyone is an academic or a sportsman, but we encourage students to get involved with all aspects of what the school has to offer.

Intuitive

We want to develop inquiring minds from our students. We want them to be brave enough to ask the difficult questions, but also be respectful of answers given. Debate and the challenge of finding out information, but also to make quick judgements. We simply want our students to trust their instinct which we will strive to nurture at Balance.

Steadfast

We want our students to be resolute and dutiful in their beliefs, commitments and opinions. The must be loyal to and have a strong commitment to their determinations in life which must be rooted in their principles and goals – even in the face of challenges and obstacles. Our students need to dedicate themselves to their actions and decisions making sure they always stay true to themselves.

Self-Aware

Balance students know who they are and are conscious of their emotions, strengths, weaknesses, values and beliefs. They are grounded in Thai culture as individuals and know how they are perceived by others through their actions and their impact into the larger social context. We will develop self-awareness in our students through mindfulness, meditation, feedback and introspection. This will help their in their leadership abilities, personal development and over-all well-being.

Our Vision

  • Finding a holistic balance between academic, cultural and sporting experiences whilst always striving for excellence.
  • Being inclusive of all students while nurturing and celebrating individual learning through a balanced curriculum
  • Encouraging positive collaboration and communication; embracing the values of true citizenship
  • Challenging students to always think critically, to find solutions and be cognisent of both local and global issues.

Objectives

  • We aim to develop a love for learning, which will remain with the individual long after the process of formal education has finished
  • We provide a balanced and broad curriculum, which will be inclusive of catering to all student’s different academic abilities and needs.
  • Our curriculum starts with play-based learning, moving onto project based learning and culminating is skills based learning.
  • We offer students the opportunity to learn beyond the classroom through extra curriculum activities program as well as academic school trips and international summer school experiences. Not only will these enhance the learning process, but will engage students in practical world challenging problems encouraging them to be part of the problem solving scenarios.
  • Will provide our students with a stimulating and caring environment to learn within, where the development of the whole child is a priority.
  • Fully encourage parents to take an active role in their child’s education and development.
  • Aim to reward achievement of all members of our school community for their successes.
  • Encourage them to think globally and build an awareness of global issues, embracing the ideals of international understanding and responsible citizenship.

Educational Philosophy

We provide a solid academic foundation and a rich extra-curricular program supplemented by two international educational programs that include four core principles: World Citizenship, Universal Values, Leadership Qualities, and Forward Thinking which are part of the planned curriculum and are woven into the fabric of school life. However, in all instances, we are aware that our students remain rooted into their own culture and learn and celebrate it as the foundations of their own Thai culture.

We know that providing what students need to become exceptional adults requires more than just academics, therefore we embrace the philosophy of preparing well-rounded students for the world and better prepare them to face the challenges of the future. It is hoped that with these skills they will embrace chosen pathways which will lead to the betterment of Thailand.
