St Andrews International School Bangkok

The school follows a research-led approach focused on developing critical thinking, creativity, and curiosity. It emphasizes an inclusive culture that nurtures happiness and ambition, guided by six core educational pillars. The school promotes social responsibility through environmental initiatives, such as the Eco-School Green Flag Award-winning sustainability programme, and collaborations with UNICEF, MIT, and The Juilliard School.

The school offers a British-based curriculum spanning Early Years Foundation Stage (ages 2-5), Primary (ages 5-11), High School (ages 11-16), and Senior Studies (ages 16-18). Academic pathways include IGCSEs, the IB Diploma Programme (IBDP), the IB Career-related Programme (IBCP), and BTEC qualifications. Students have access to a wide range of subjects, including 34 options at IGCSE and 35 at IBDP.

The school reports a 98% IBDP pass rate, with 15% of students scoring 40 points or higher and a top score of 45. In 2022, the IBDP cohort received 85 offers from the world’s top 100 universities, with 75% of students securing their first-choice institution. The school holds accreditation from British Schools Overseas, the Education Development Trust, and the International Schools Quality Mark.

The school employs a team of therapists, counsellors, and learning specialists to support student wellbeing and academic needs. It is a fully inclusive environment with ELKLAN-certified teachers who provide specific support for students with speech, language, and communication challenges. Support is also provided for university admissions and navigating social media.

The admissions process begins with an online enquiry, followed by a tour of the school, either in person or virtually. Applicants must submit an application along with supporting documents, after which the school invites the student for an assessment and interview. The school offers a fast-track assessment and offer process for late applicants.

The school operates on a standard academic year, with specific dates and events managed through the school's calendar. Parents can access information regarding school life and progress through the Moodle online learning portal.

The school operates two campuses in Bangkok: a primary campus and a high school campus. The primary campus features colonial-style buildings, manicured gardens, an artificial sports pitch, and playgrounds, with a new primary building opening in August 2026. The high school campus, located near Ekkamai BTS Station, includes design technology labs, a fitness and yoga centre, a 260-seat theatre, and Apple-equipped music classrooms.

The school offers an extensive extra-curricular programme with over 150 clubs and activities, including Minecraft, musical theatre, science, tennis, and Thai. More than 75% of students participate in at least two after-school activities weekly. Additionally, students engage in large-scale sports, music, VEX Robotics competitions, Model United Nations, and international expeditions to locations such as Tanzania and Switzerland.
