Nguyen Sieu School is a selective entry school in Hanoi Vietnam. The school wishes to live by its vision, that is, to become a premier bilingual school that offers world-class education while upholding traditional Vietnamese values.
In 2023, Nguyen Sieu School is proud to be the first school in Vietnam to join a global community of world-class schools that adopted the High Performance Learning (HPL) philosophy. The HPL philosophy is that all students can be high performers, and we teach with this expectation at the forefront of our minds. We believe that all students can achieve with practice and perseverance, and students are regularly reminded of this message. Using the HPL framework, which is based on the latest research in neuroscience and psychology, we systematically build the skills and behaviours that are proven to lead a young person to thrive in school and beyond.
As a Cambridge International School network member since 2013, the school delivers an integrated curriculum between Cambridge International and Vietnamese National Programs. Our IGCSE and A-Level results consistently stand above the global average. Nguyen Sieu students are among the high achievers and top performers in IGCSE, AS, and A-Level exams. Nguyen Sieu School is also a Study Center of NCUK, delivering the NCUK International Foundation Year (IFY) as an alternative pathway to universities.
Our school has set out to prioritise the support of aspiring teachers to secure precise qualifications and competencies for school teaching through our network of current qualified teachers and trained in-school mentors. In 2023, Nguyen Sieu became a Teacher Development Hub School of TES Institute (Times Educational Supplement), serving as an authorised placement site for practice teaching as part of the iPGCE and MA programmes offered by the University of East London (UEL).
