Internationalised Curriculum and Equivalency
Praht Thai Schools have adopted a benchmark standard called "Equivalency". Through curriculum implementation and comparative analysis against major global curricula, the Equivalency standard seeks to deliver a position for students whereby upon completion of schooling at a Praht Thai School, students are expected to be equally able to pursue higher education in Thai-medium or English-medium institutions in Thailand or abroad. As the curriculum is based on the infusion and inclusion of the most-recognised leading subject area programmes from around the world the curriculum based becomes by default a globally equivalent standard at the highest level. By drawing on these recognised subject area curricula IC has set an equivalency standard that will allow students the opportunity to be studying on par with the best in any subject area anywhere in the world at each age and grade level. (An example of this is the absorption of the latest Singapore MOE Mathematics curriculum into the mostly Thai-language deliver Praht Thai Maths Curriculum. Singapore's Math curriculum is recognised in the past three TIMMS studies (Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study conducted every four years since 1995) - ( see Timms link below)).

Famous quotes containing the word curriculum:
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
