In 1997, Paragon International School Cambodia (Paragon ISC), formerly Zaman International School, opened its doors. It is regulated by the School Board and is one of Cambodia's top bilingual and international schools in terms of teaching and service quality. The Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports in Cambodia, as well as Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) in the United Kingdom, have both certified the institution. The CAIE curriculum is used in the International program, which takes our students from Primary to Secondary School and Pre-University. Moreover, the Council of International Schools has granted accreditation to Cambodia's Paragon International School (CIS). To satisfy the different demands of our student group, we offer an exclusive blend of national and international curriculum. Both the Khmer National Curriculum and the Cambridge Curriculum are used in the Bilingual program. Our curriculum provides students with an appreciation of Cambodian culture and its contribution to the heritage of the civilized world. There is a primary focus on internationalism, in order to develop open-minded world citizens with international perspectives, self-confidence, and conscientiousness. Paragon International University (formerly known as Zaman University) was established in 2010, as a new member of Zaman educational institutions (now under Paragon Education Company). In recognizing a global world and the need for global communication, since its inception, the language of instruction at Paragon International University has been English. With a commitment to excellence, Paragon International University strives to be a leading university in Cambodia with excellent teaching research and community services, so as to provide internationally-recognized programs and offers 11 undergraduate majors, under the departments of Architecture, Engineering, Business, and International Relations. Furthermore, Paragon IU offers 3 graduate majors: Master of Arts in International Relations, Business Administration and Master of Science in Management of Information Systems.

Birmingham

We have highly-qualified, experienced and dedicated teaching staff and a proven track record of progression onto higher education and employment. The St Bernadette Centre has recently undergone significant refurbishment and investment. Students have exclusive access to a group work room on their study day which doubles as a social space at break and lunch. They also have access to computer facilities in our new library which provides a modern learning space to aid them as they become more independent learners. Our curriculum offers the very best in both academic and vocational courses to match the needs of all our students. All Sixth Form students study Core RE across their two year career with us and complete the Extended Project, applying Catholic Social Teaching to a moral and ethical issue of their choice. Whilst we believe in allowing greater freedom to our students, we strive to have a true partnership between students, parents and tutors. Excellent pastoral care is provided by experienced tutors who advise, encourage and monitor student progress. The Duke of Edinburgh Award remains a strong feature of our school into the Sixth Form. The award gives students the chance to experience physical activities, volunteering, whilst developing life skills through expeditions; it is valued by universities and employees alike. During May half-term, Sixth Form students join the annual Diocesan pilgrimage to Lourdes to care for and assist the sick and disabled pilgrims. This is a very popular extra-curricular opportunity which really demonstrates the faith of our students in action. Throughout the week God’s love in action is seen through the selfless service of the young people and their generosity of spirit, sharing their talents and energy and time willingly with others.
