Parent Experience

History
The ABC International School (ABCIS) was founded in 1995 as the ABC English School, starting with 12 students in a playgroup and nursery. By 2001 the school had grown to about 70 pupils and began formally following the British National Curriculum; the name was changed to The ABC International School to reflect its expanding diversity. In 2003 the school was registered in the UK with the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA) and the Department for Education (DfES). The school moved to its first purpose-built campus in South Saigon in 2004, and shortly afterwards with a pupil population exceeding 500, relocated to a larger campus known as SS1 for the Primary Stages; in 2005 the school was accredited by Cambridge to teach IGCSE and A Levels and joined FOBISIA, later COBIS. A state-of-the-art campus opened in August 2018, marking the culmination of expansion and the school's ongoing growth.

The Nha Be campus features a 400-seat theatre and other facilities that support performances and cultural events, enriching the school's community life. The school runs a Model United Nations (MUN) program with weekly meetings and inter-school conferences, and field trips include FOBISIA regional events as well as Duke of Edinburgh's Award activities and group residential trips.

Parent Teacher Association (PTA)
The ABC International School describes parents as an integral part of its community, with opportunities to get involved through events, Parent Advisory Groups, and a dedicated parent portal. Parent Advisory Groups coordinate input from families and support school initiatives and volunteer efforts. A dedicated parent portal provides direct lines of communication and access to updates on student progress and school activities. The principal notes that the school is family-owned and has operated for more than 25 years, underscoring a close, family-centered approach to governance.

Admissions

Admissions
1. Schedule a visit to the school. To begin, you should complete the inquiry form so a member of the Admissions Team can contact you, and you may also call the school to arrange a visit. The school provides a form online to request a visit, and staff will follow up to set up a time that fits your schedule. This initial contact is the first step toward arranging the entrance assessments and interview.

2. Prepare for and undergo entrance assessments and an interview. A decision on admission is made after the candidate completes entrance assessments and an interview with a member of the Senior Management Team. Interviews must be arranged in advance through the office administration. The interview evaluates educational ability, English language proficiency, and experience across curriculum areas; if a class is full, your child's name may be placed on a waiting list and you will be informed if a place becomes available.

3. Submit required documents and complete the admission form. If you secure an interview, you are expected to answer questions and complete an admission form during the process, including signing a declaration accepting school rules, regulations, and policies. To request an admission interview, you must provide a completed application form, the most recent school report, a copy of the student's passport or birth certificate (Vietnamese nationals), and one photograph. After a placement offer is made, additional documents are required (see Step 4).

4. Accept an offer and finalize placement. When a placement offer is made, parents/guardians have one week to complete all necessary documentation and pay the required fees to secure the place. Late responses or payments may result in the place being offered to another student. Following a placement offer, the school requires documents such as the Home School Agreement, Internet and Mobile Usage Agreement, Vaccination Record, and other forms (IGCSE/A Level Option Form for Year 10+, Code of Transportation for Secondary).

5. Understand placement criteria and policy requirements. Students are placed primarily by age, but other factors such as previous educational experience, maturity, and English language ability are also considered. The school does not provide Special Educational Needs (SEN) support for students with learning difficulties; such cases are considered individually if the school can provide appropriate support, with the management's decision being final. Parents are expected to commit to annual school trips and to accept all school rules, regulations, and policies to safeguard welfare and safety; the school reserves the right to cancel a registration if rules are not followed.
