International schools

A Chalong school offering British and French curriculum pathways. Check which teaching-language stream and year group suit the child; language lessons are not the same as the medium of instruction. The two curriculum pathways should be compared separately: choosing a British programme and choosing a French programme can lead to different classroom languages, assessments and progression routes. Families should ask which stream is available for the child’s year, how a transfer between streams works, and what language support is offered. When comparing costs, use the fee schedule for that specific stream and year group rather than assuming the same quotation covers the whole school.

A smaller Chalong school describing nursery, kindergarten and primary provision. Confirm the available year groups, English-medium programme and current fee schedule directly. As a smaller school with early-years and primary provision described in its materials, Buds warrants a year-group-specific visit. Ask how classes are organised, which curriculum framework is currently followed and how the school prepares pupils to transfer to their next stage. Families should distinguish a warm small-school setting from assumptions about the range of subjects or facilities available. A current written quotation is needed because older fee pages do not establish the cost for a new academic year.

A school on Jaofa 69 Road in Chalong combining British and Russian educational elements. Confirm the teaching language by subject, current licence and open year groups. Its Rawai kindergarten has a different address. Families considering its mix of British and Russian educational elements should ask which subjects are taught in each language, how progress is reported and what qualification or transfer documentation is provided. Cambridge-related content does not automatically establish Cambridge examination-centre status. The Chalong school and Rawai kindergarten have different addresses and age provision, so confirm the intended setting before travelling. Request the current operating licence and year-group information directly rather than inferring them from the school’s branding.

Montessori education near Chalong Temple, with toddler, elementary and secondary provision described by the school. Ask about current class availability and the secondary qualification route. A Montessori classroom is organised around a different learning approach from a conventional age-based timetable. Families can use a visit to ask how individual work, shared activities and progress reporting operate at the intended stage. The needs of a toddler, an elementary pupil and a secondary student are different, so confirm the actual class and teaching team rather than relying on the overall school age range. For older pupils, ask specifically about external qualifications and the route to further study.

A Chalong school at 45/9 Moo 1 Soi Ta Iad offering English-medium education. Mandarin immersion is an optional additional programme, separate from the main teaching language. The school describes an English-medium programme drawing on IPC and the English National Curriculum. Its additional Mandarin immersion option should be discussed separately so families understand the time commitment and whether it is part of the normal day or an extra programme. Ask about current class sizes, year-group placement and support for a child arriving with limited English. Confirm the Soi Ta Iad campus pin and obtain a quotation that separates tuition from any optional language programme.

An American-curriculum school describing a beach-and-forest learning setting and a pathway through high school. Confirm the current campus address, open grades and Diploma authorisation before enrolling. The beach-and-forest description concerns the learning environment; families should also examine the academic programme and progression route for their child. Ask how outdoor learning fits into the timetable, which grades are currently operating and how new pupils are assessed. A stated IB Diploma pathway is not, by itself, confirmation of authorisation or immediate course availability. Secondary families should verify the current status, course choices and graduation arrangements directly with the school.

Nature-based nursery, kindergarten and primary education in Cherng Talay. Check current grades, age placement and the separate arrangements for school-holiday camps. Its nature-based setting is part of the educational approach, but nursery, kindergarten and primary provision still need separate age and curriculum checks. Ask how outdoor activity is balanced with literacy, numeracy and progress reporting, and which primary grades are currently open. Holiday camps are a separate service and should not be confused with ordinary school enrolment. For a longer stay, discuss the transition from the highest available primary class into the next school stage.

A planned Cherng Talay day and boarding school, announced for Q3 2028. It is not an operating school; ages, teaching language, fees and admissions remain to be confirmed. This entry records an announced development, not an available school place. The planned opening date and facilities can change while a campus is being developed. Families should wait for official confirmation of admissions, operating grades, teaching languages and approved qualifications before making a schooling commitment. A nearby property should not be presented as having access to an operating NLCS campus yet.

Shining Stars is presented as an early-years and English-intensive provider rather than a full secondary-school option. Families should ask how play, communication and early academic work are balanced, and which preschool, kindergarten or early-primary classes are operating.

An alternative educational centre inspired by Waldorf and forest education. Confirm its current location, licensed age provision and operating status; it is not presented as a verified full international school. Waldorf, Steiner and forest-school influences describe an educational philosophy and setting rather than a particular secondary qualification. A visit should focus on the actual daily programme, teacher qualifications, safeguarding and the ages the centre is currently authorised to serve. Families should confirm both the operating address and legal status directly. If planning a later move into a conventional international school, ask how learning progress is documented and how transfer preparation is supported.

English-medium international schooling in Kathu following the National Curriculum for England. This is distinct from Kajonkiet schools operating Thai-curriculum English programmes. This entry is specifically for Kajonkiet International School, rather than every school in the wider Kajonkiet group. That distinction matters because the curriculum and teaching medium can differ between the international school and Thai-curriculum English programmes. Ask how new pupils are placed in the British year structure, what English support is required, and which examination subjects are currently offered. Compare the written tuition schedule with compulsory language-support, lunch, transport and examination charges.

Day and boarding education in Ko Kaeo, with a British secondary pathway and IB Diploma. Confirm the current year group and any sports-academy admission requirements. The British and IB Diploma stages serve different points in a child’s education; families should ask how the transition between them is organised and which courses are available in the intended year. Day attendance and boarding also require separate practical and financial comparisons. For a sports-focused application, clarify academy selection, training commitments and any additional charges. The tuition table is not the full first-year budget: placement charges, the refundable bond, boarding and transport need their own allowance.

A Ko Kaeo school combining Finnish educational foundations with a Cambridge secondary pathway. Check the year groups currently open; the longer-term Grade 12 vision is not a guarantee that every grade is available. The combination of Finnish educational foundations and a Cambridge secondary route deserves a stage-by-stage discussion. Ask how learning is organised in the early years, how progress is assessed in primary school and what changes when pupils enter Cambridge Lower Secondary. A published long-term vision through Grade 12 should be separated from the grades already operating. Families considering a multi-year stay should request the current progression plan and clarify the options if their child reaches a stage not yet open.

A Kathu school within the Quality Schools International network. Ask about age placement, mastery-based progression and the available secondary courses. QSI’s mastery-learning approach makes the school’s placement and progression process particularly relevant to a transfer decision. Ask how attainment is assessed, how pupils move through subjects and how reporting explains progress to parents. Secondary families should request the current course list and graduation requirements, including which AP options are actually available. Confirm the latest fee quotation and billing currency directly; a foreign-currency fee should not be treated as a fixed THB amount without a dated conversion basis.

A Rawai school following a Cambridge-based programme, with an English Language Learner pathway. Confirm the appropriate programme and campus for the child’s age. For families based in Rawai, the important distinction is between its early-years provision and the Cambridge pathway for school-age children. Ask the admissions team how pupils are placed, what support is available when English is an additional language, and which secondary classes are currently running. The languages spoken by admissions staff do not necessarily describe the language used to teach mathematics or science.

A school with kindergarten, primary and secondary pathways across campuses. Confirm the campus, programme and teaching language for the chosen grade. Lighthouse has different early-years, primary and secondary settings, so the school group should not be treated as a single interchangeable address.

Ask how the British and Singaporean influences are used in the classroom, how English immersion is supported and how Thai language and culture are included. This entry should not be read as a promise of full primary or secondary provision.

Families should ask how purposeful play, inquiry and subject learning fit together at their child’s age.
