Tesla runs the three IB programmes as a continuum. The Primary Years Programme builds inquiry and independent thinking through interdisciplinary themes. The Middle Years Programme, for Grades 6 to 10, connects learning to real-world contexts through projects and practical application, developing critical and analytical skills. The Diploma Programme, for Grades 11 and 12, is a pre-university qualification emphasising academic depth, independent research and self-management, and the school publishes guidance on the two Diploma pathways it offers. The school is also accredited by Cambridge Assessment International Education, and a university and career counselling team works with students on applications and direct contact with universities.
The school runs the IB continuum from early years to Grade 12. IB PYP Early Years introduces the youngest children to inquiry-based learning, and the Primary Years Programme continues through the primary grades with interdisciplinary themes. The Middle Years Programme covers Grades 6 to 10, connecting subjects to real-world contexts through projects. The Diploma Programme covers Grades 11 and 12 as a pre-university qualification, with university and career counselling alongside it.
The school states that it cultivates an environment where students build not only knowledge but character and the confidence to lead in a changing world, with integrity, honesty and accountability named among its core values. It presents itself as combining global readiness and academic rigour with strong local grounding, and describes a holistic approach to the wellbeing of each student that runs through its academic and pastoral programmes.
Teaching at Tesla takes place in both Vietnamese and English. The IB programmes are delivered in English by international teachers who complete IB-authorised professional development, while the school aligns the IB framework with the requirements of the Vietnamese Ministry of Education and Training, so Vietnamese keeps its place in the curriculum and in the school's stated commitment to preserving cultural identity. The library is set up to develop reading and research skills in support of that bilingual work.
