School Overview

This Australian School has three campuses; one nestled among the high rise apartments and residential area of the bustling central Sukhumvit road area of Bangkok, the second located nearby in a quiet, leafy residential area and the third in a growing and prosperous residential area in Northern Bangkok. Each campus provides high quality academic education for its students and is populated by staff, students and families from many different parts of the world.

Curriculum is based on Australian National Curriculum and provides a balanced combination of direct teaching, enquiry based learning and a strong co-curricular program. In Years 7 and 8 students follow a combined Australian curriculum/ Lower Cambridge curriculum that covers concepts needed as a lead into the IGCSE at Year 9, while bridging the Australian curriculum taught in the Primary years. Students explore a variety of core subjects, cover their interests through a number of electives and build on skills in creative thinking, enquiry skills and problem solving that have been introduced in the Primary years. In Year 9, the students embark on the Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE). Cambridge IGCSE is a two year course of study, culminating with external examinations in Year 10. The curriculum is embedded in the local and international context, with adjustments made to take account of their location, and the nationality of the students.

The school's mission is to provide a supportive, child-centred learning environment, where children of all nationalities discover the joy of learning, and obtain a firm foundation for fulfilment and success in their future education.
