PROJECT-BASED LEARNING IN BANGKOK

At Sequoia Nova we pursue a pedagogy that is both rooted in the real world and firmly future‑facing. As an innovative international primary school in Bangkok, we place Project‑Based Learning (PBL) at the centre of our practice. This active design thinking-based, exacting approach invites learners to collaborate, investigate, create and tackle complex problems while securing robust, enduring knowledge.

Through concrete projects running throughout the year, children take on defined roles, refine their spoken expression, learn to work as a team through the 5 stages of the design thinking process and gradually grow in confidence, creativity and independence. The framework draws them fully into their studies and provides genuine motivation to learn.

Our approach adapts to each learner’s strengths, interests and pace, blending modern digital tools—educational platforms and tablets—with rich, meaningful experiences. We equip our learners to meet tomorrow’s challenges by cultivating transferable skills: critical thinking, digital literacy, collaboration, creative problem‑solving and the capacity to apply knowledge in practical, relevant ways.

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

A DYNAMIC, HIGH-EXPECTATION PEDAGOGY

At Sequoia Nova, we shape independent, capable learners ready to thrive in a digital world. Our enrichment programme sharpens innovation, problem‑solving, engineering, coding, 3‑D design and robotics, ensuring every child can turn ideas into action.

MASTERY IN ACTION

Learning here is never passive. Learners engage in real-world, cross-disciplinary projects that apply design thinking and build future-ready skills, strengthening critical thinking, creativity, communication, and teamwork. Each project is a genuine opportunity to apply knowledge and move forward with purpose.

PROGRESS TRACKED EVERY DAY

We honour each learner’s pace. A skill is considered mastered only when it can be used independently and meaningfully—well beyond a single assignment.

VISIBLE GROWTH THROUGH COMPETENCY BELTS

Our competency‑belt system lets learners and families follow progress with clarity and pride. Every belt earned marks a tangible step along a motivating, easy‑to‑read pathway.

PERSONALISED, EVOLVING PATHWAYS

As soon as they are ready, learners co‑create a tailored work plan with their teacher—aligned to individual needs, rhythms and goals—so learning stays smooth, inspiring and free of bottlenecks.

THOUGHTFUL DIGITAL INTEGRATION

Technology is used with intent: tablets, digital resources and collaborative tools boost autonomy and creativity, preparing learners to navigate—and shape—an increasingly connected world.
