St Andrews International School Bangkok was founded in 1997<br />

on an attractive, conveniently located site, with good access to<br />

local transportation and excellent facilities. Currently there<br />

are 750 students ranging in age from nursery (aged 2 years) to<br />

Year 13 (18 years).<br />

The school is a high quality, professional, well-resourced<br />

learning environment where each child’s talents and abilities<br />

are recognized and nurtured, and their needs supported. Our<br />

teachers are professional and caring, selected for their<br />

awareness of the needs of a broad range of children who may<br />

come from different social, cultural, religious and educational<br />

backgrounds. They are capable educators who take care with<br />

their preparation of the curriculum, use a variety of strategies<br />

for its delivery and pay close attention to the progression of<br />

each individual.<br />

We are an inclusive school that welcomes students of all<br />

abilities. To ensure that all our children have an equality of<br />

opportunity, we have a professional learning support<br />

department. This team works with class teachers to identify<br />

and support children in their learning across the school,<br />

whether they need extra help with their studies or have been<br />

identified as gifted and talented.<br />

The curriculum draws on the best UK practices, adapted to<br />

reflect the international context of the school. Students take<br />

IGCSE examinations at the end of Year 11 and then follow the<br />

Senior Studies programme in Years 12 and 13. St Andrews<br />

offers the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme,<br />

alongside an alternative school-based curriculum, both of<br />

which lead to graduation and provide the opportunity to apply<br />

to prestigious universities all around the world. With high<br />

quality teaching, excellent facilities and small class sizes, the<br />

Senior Studies programme at St Andrews offers students the<br />

opportunity to fulfil their academic potential in a stimulating,<br />

caring and nurturing environment.<br />

The school is fully accredited by CfBT Education Trust and<br />

Thailand’s Office for National Education Standards and<br />

Quality Assessment (ONESQA), the first school in Thailand to<br />

receive this joint accreditation award.<br />
