Sarasas Ektra School
Sarasas Ektra School (Thai: โรงเรียนสารสาสน์เอกตรา) is a Catholic bilingual co-educational school located in Central Bangkok. In 1995, it became the first bilingual school to be approved as such by the Ministry of Education in Thailand. As of 2009, the school has approximately 2900 students, and conducts a fully bilingual program in Thai and English from Kindergarten 1 (3-year-olds) to Matayom 6 (17-year-olds). The school is located over three campuses in Bangpongpang sub-district of Yannawa District. A Nursery class for two-year-old children was introduced in May 2009.
Sarasas Ektra is one of 24 schools in the Sarasas Affiliation, 15 of which have bilingual programmes.
==Curriculum==
The model of bilingual education applied at Sarasas Ektra is known as parallel immersion. Students are taught three key learning areas (Mathematics, Science and Social Studies) in both English and Thai – learning the content first in the mother tongue (Thai) and then covering the same or similar content in English. The Thai and English lessons are taught by different teachers and no language-switching occurs in either lesson. It is expected that the Thai-medium lesson will provide content and conceptual knowledge at a deeper level than the English lesson, as the former is in the students' first language. The English-medium lesson will give more emphasis to the language specific to the content. On completion of schooling at Sarasas Ektra, students are expected to be equally able to pursue higher education in Thai-medium or English-medium courses.
This model has also been described as "mother-tongue content instruction followed by English for academic purposes". However, a school-based study in 2006 indicated that this is not really accurate. (See http://conference.nie.edu.sg/2007/paper/html/OTH260.html) The study revealed that English-medium teachers do not regard the subject content merely as a vehicle for teaching language, but as having value in its own right.
