Mathematics Achievement
St. Mark's students have been achieving many mathematics awards over the years. Many of our students find Mathematics interesting and have an affinity towards it. A high percentage of our students regularly achieve high marks in this particular subject in various standardised examinations, including the Cambridge IGCSE and the ISA. Below is a list of our students' achievements we would like to share with you.
Gold Medalist - World International Mathematical Olympiad 2019
We are pleased to announce the Gold Award winner for the World International Mathematical Olympiad held in Tokyo, Japan in December 2019.
Congratulations to two of our students for winning a Gold Award (Year 1) and a Merit Award (Year 10) from this prestigious event. These students have achieved "Gold" in the previous two regional Olympiad rounds before securing a stand at the World International Olympiad.
St. Mark's International School is a Trilingual School of Mathematics and Science. Our comprehensive Maths and Science program helps build confidence in learners to achieve success in these subject areas.
Hong Kong International Mathematical Olympiad (HKIMO)
St. Mark’s Students won six Medals at the Hong Kong International Mathematical Olympiad (HKIMO)
St. Mark’s International School is pleased to share the good news that our students have won 1 Gold, 1 Silver and 4 Bronze medals at the final round of Hong Kong International Mathematics Olympiad (HKIMO) held in Hong Kong. It is one of the most glowing success stories in our history, as all six of our students chosen to represent Thailand returned with a medal. Our student-representatives were from various age groups, ranging from Prep to Secondary 2. This achievement at an international level accentuates the strength of St. Mark’s competency in the Mathematics program. This year, 1,300 students from 10 countries participated in the HKIMO. Only participants who have won in the heat round (national round) are qualified to participate in the final round of the international competition in Hong Kong. The content of the HKIMO competition focuses on mathematics skills in logical thinking, number theory, geometry, combinatorics, arithmetic, and algebra.
Science and Mathematics Talent Development (SMTD) or International Mathematics and Science Olympiad (IMSO)
The Thai Government's establishment of Science and Mathematics Talent Development (SMTD) project called International Mathematics and Science Olympiad (IMSO) is to find highly capable students in the area of Science and Mathematics each year to represent Thailand in the World Mathematics & Science Olympiad. The competition consists of two elimination rounds:
1st round: narrowing down 100,000 students nationwide to just 1,000 students
2nd round: narrowing down 1,000 students to just the top 15 students for Gold, the next 30 students for Silver and the next 45 students for Bronze. The Gold Medalist will be selected to represent Thailand to participate in the annual World Mathematics and Science Olympiad.
Congratulations to our student who has successfully passed both elimination rounds and achieved a spectacular Gold. This achievement is truly extraordinary, as she ranks among the top 15 students out of the 100,000 contestants who participated in this prestigious competition in 2019. With this achievement, the Ministry of Education (MOE) called our school to extend their congratulations on our success.
International Math Challenge VIII
Recently our students participated in the International Math Challenge VIII. In this international Mathematics competition, our students took home 3 Golds, 3 Silver, 1 Bronze and 1 Merit Award. A splendid achievement across the grades! Please watch the video below to find out more on our students’ success story in Mathematics.
What others are saying
St. Mark’s is a great school with many classes to learn from like Chinese which makes us a lot smarter. I also like that there are classes like Technology, Arts, and Anklong because they teach very interesting things. I like that we are able to join different competitions and get medals and certificates for trying and winning and it also teaches us to be brave and try to get out of our comfort zones and try something new.
Ireland (Primary)
I really like this school because the education here is very good. The teachers are very nice, knowledgeable and funny. They taught me many things. My friends and classmates are nice too. But, the best thing is that the school has everything the kids need.
Korea (Primary)
St. Mark’s not only focuses on teaching but organises social activities such as camps, field trips, sports day, showcase, after-school activities. Participation in these activities has made me become more confident. Teachers here are experts in their fields and are entertaining, making learning very enjoyable. They are very approachable and often would help us whenever we have a need. The school guides me to achieve my academic goals and become a better person.
China (Secondary)
St. Mark's class size was one of the reasons I like this school. I was able to connect well with my classmates and teachers, who have inspired me to love learning, especially in Maths and Chemistry. St. Mark's has given me the opportunity to interact with students from different countries, which has helped to improve my English. St. Mark's provides an excellent education for both native and non-native English speakers.
