Expand Learning.

P5 – P6 — the beginning of subject specialisation, preparing students with focus and depth for secondary education.

Primary 5 – Primary 6

Time to expand abilities.

Providing learning to students in grades 5 and 6 is the beginning period for students to develop the aptitudes and abilities they are interested in — preparing the strength they will need in their studies as they move on to secondary education.

PBS recognises the importance of secondary readiness. We have therefore designed a teaching and learning programme that allows students to develop their own abilities through the Plus Track, which is divided into two learning groups.

The Plus Track

Two tracks, one student.

P5 – P6 students choose a focus area — academic excellence, or talent development — while continuing the bilingual core curriculum.

Excellence

Academic Excellence

Deeper academic stretch for students preparing for selective secondary admission and competitive academic pathways.

  • Mathematics & Science
  • Advanced English
Talent

Talent Development

Dedicated time for students whose growth area is in sport, music or other performance disciplines — without sacrificing the academic foundation.

  • Sports
  • Music
Bilingual Curriculum

A 60 : 40 bilingual programme.

The course is taught in a ratio of English 60 : Thai 40 — even in the Plus Track, the bilingual foundation continues.
