Summerfield International School, Bangladesh for private education, is the senior section of Tiny Tots School, which was founded in 1974 by Mrs Faizi Chowdhury.[1] Summerfield is an English medium, private International school offering classes from Junior Play-group (pre-K) through A Level (Year 12).[2] Students typically graduate with a Pearson Edexcel IGCSE and IAL or a Cambridge Assessment GCE. The school has 5 established campuses in Dhaka across Mohammadpur and Dhanmondi, including one British Council affiliated examinations center.
History[edit]
Tiny Tots Playgroup was founded in 1974 by Mrs. Faizi Chowdhury and a Swedish educationist Ms. Margot Enander with a class of 14 children. After Ms. Margot Enander's departure, the school came under Mrs. Chowdhury's care and soon, the school developed into a complete preschool and kindergarten offering an English-centered approach to core subjects such as English, Mathematics and Science.
After two decades, Ms. Anjum Husain, daughter of Mrs. Chowdhury, inaugurated Summerfield International School with the intention to provide students with a complete, all-round schooling all the way through. The school now has five campuses and one British Council examinations center. The first GCE O’ Level class graduated in 2006 with 100% A grades.[3]
Facilities[edit]
Summerfield offers a holistic approach to education with a strong emphasis on extra-curricular, hands-on learning. The senior campus offers a hybrid physical and virtual library for students to utilize for their research and independent learning, or for leisure reading during their free time. The senior campus has a well-equipped sciences laboratory, an IT and Computers lab with updated computers, a student recreation room and an indoor sports room.[4]
Additional facilities include wellbeing and higher education counseling for future study prospects, several clubs including SEAC, English Club and DEA (Duke of Edinburgh) starting from age 14, summer/winter internship opportunities for high-school seniors, and outdoor sports facilities for basketball and football (soccer).
