School Culture

At Nguyen Binh Khiem Secondary and High School, school culture is regarded as the foundation of all educational activities — the starting point for character formation, value cultivation, and the nurturing of a positive learning spirit.

Over the course of more than 28 years, the School has continuously shaped a set of practical, adaptive values aligned with the demands of a changing era. This culture is not only reflected in standards of conduct, but also in the way teachers inspire, students take ownership of their growth, and the School maintains strong collaboration with families and the wider community.

1. A Culture of Respect and Compassion

We uphold respect and compassion as the cornerstone of all behaviors and interactions within the school. Students are nurtured to listen, empathize, and understand others. Teachers are not only knowledge facilitators but also companions — always willing to share, guide, and support the personal development of each learner with care and understanding.

2. A Culture of Responsibility and Autonomy

At Nguyen Binh Khiem, responsibility and self-discipline are seen as essential qualities in students’ learning and personal growth. Students are encouraged to take responsibility for themselves, their peers, and their communities. Through diverse academic and life skill activities — including extracurricular programs and student-led class operations — a culture of self-study, self-management, and accountability is actively cultivated.

3. A Culture of Creativity and Liberal Thinking

We believe in an education that is not confined by rigid frameworks. Here, students are encouraged to question, think critically, and develop independent thought in an open, inclusive environment that respects diversity. The spirit of creativity at NBK is exemplified through the integration of advanced technology programs such as AI, Robocon, and Automation, alongside hands-on experiences like baking, mixology, and interpersonal communication workshops. These programs foster holistic student development — intellectually, emotionally, and practically.

4. A Culture of Collaboration Among School – Family – Society

Nguyen Binh Khiem recognizes that the success of every student stems from strong collaboration between the school, parents, and the community. With a dedicated Parent & Student Support Office, the School regularly hosts dialogue sessions, counseling programs, and real-world experiences where parents and students are encouraged to listen, share, and co-create the educational journey based on trust, understanding, and transparency.

5. Cultural Spaces: Where Inspiration Begins

Culture is not only embedded in teaching and learning methods but also expressed through the spaces where students live and grow. From the green schoolyard to modern classrooms, well-equipped boarding areas, and imaginative play zones — every space is designed to spark creativity, cultivate aesthetics, and encourage emotional well-being within the school environment.

A Cultural Commitment – A Quality Life

We are committed to building an educational environment grounded in a strong cultural foundation — where every student is respected, every teacher is an inspiration, and every school day becomes a memorable experience. At Nguyen Binh Khiem, educational excellence goes beyond academics; it lies in the lasting life values nurtured throughout each moment of the student journey.
