PBS  IGCSE  YEAR

The IGCSE year is a very important Year in a student’s life.
It ends in the first big test of their academic progress. Indonesian passport
holders will sit the National Examinations at the end of Year 9.
In the Upper Secondary Programme, students: 

Will receive the “Cambridge IGCSE/O Level Certificate
of Completion”.
  Student’s wishing international qualifications will have
opportunities to sit the Cambridge IGCSE/O Level Exams.  

The Upper Secondary Programme is the first measurable step
towards University and a career.  It is important that students arrive at the
IGCSE exams ready and prepared to get the best results possible.
The PBS Cambridge Pathways programme aims to help your
students achieve success. The curriculum has not just been developed to provide
information, facts and answers, it has also been developed to encourage
students to take control of their learning and become responsible for
themselves.
The curriculum is designed to give students the skills and
knowledge for a successful life beyond the National and IGCSE exams.
The PBS
Upper Secondary Programme targets learners aged 14 to 16 years and designed to
prepare students for the next step of their education, providing a clear
Pathway as they progress through Upper Secondary in an age-appropriate way.
The curriculum has also been designed to encourage young
adults to take control of their learning and become responsible for themselves.

K13 and Cambridge Pathway Framework
Cambridge Pathway provides a coherent curriculum structure made up of four stages – from Primary to Advanced. Each stage builds on the previous one in a carefully aligned instructional system. PBS integrates Cambridge Pathway learning objectives with Kurkulum 2013 (K13) competencies and using 21st Century teaching/delivery strategies, we offer “simply the best” in global education programming.

Making Our Learners’ Lives Special

Permata Bangsa School Global Education
 is a learning community in which all individuals are expected to have high standards and aspirations and are encouraged to recognise and achieve their true potential.
Our belief in creating a positive culture has led us to develop several initiatives to support and encourage kindness, empathy and good behaviour at PBS.These include qualities that students need to demonstrate in order to help them succeed academically and socially.

Our Learners Love How We Treat ThemSmall Groups More Learning – More Fun

Permata Bangsa
maintains small class room sizes. 
“Overall, research shows that students in 
smaller classes perform better 
in all subjects and on all assessments when compared to
their peers in larger 
classes. … However, for minority and at-risk
students as well as those who struggle with English Second Language and English
literacy, 
smaller
classes
 enhance academic performance.”

We use a variety of teaching approaches:

Small Group teaching and learning sessions. 
The children may be working in mixed ability or similar
ability groups depending on the learning task. 
During Small Group learning sessions, some groups will work with a
teacher or assistant whilst other groups are working independently. These
groups rotate so that every group of children has the opportunity to work on
both teacher led and independent tasks.

Whole Class Group teaching. 
Our teachers aim to make these as interactive as
possible.

Daily Bi-literacy and Numeracy tasks that
reinforce basic skills.

 These may be written or practical
