About international schools in Thailand

Thai-curriculum international schools teach the Thai Basic Education Core Curriculum, so they follow the Ministry of Education’s learning areas and prepare students for Thai qualifications while many also offer bilingual or English-track streams. These schools commonly combine Thai language, social studies and culture lessons with maths and science that may be taught in English in a parallel programme, making them a frequent choice for families who want local certification plus stronger English skills. Fees vary widely across the market: wholly Thai-medium or bilingual schools are often at the lower - to - mid end of international pricing, while fully international private schools sit higher, so expect a broad band of annual tuition figures depending on location and level. Admissions typically follow the international-school rhythm (an academic year that generally starts in August and runs to May/June), with rolling applications, entry assessments and one-off registration or deposit charges to budget for.

FAQs for Thailand

What exactly is the Thai national curriculum and how does it differ from IB or UK programmes?
The Thai national curriculum (Basic Education Core Curriculum) sets learning areas and competency standards used in state and Thai-curriculum private schools, with Thai language and culture as core components and assessment routes tied to national qualifications. It differs from international programmes like the IB or British A-levels in structure and assessment: international programmes commonly use age-based year groups and external, internationally recognised examinations, while Thai-curriculum paths lead to Thai credentials and university entrance systems.
Will my non-Thai child learn English and Thai at these schools?
Many Thai-curriculum international or bilingual schools run parallel streams so children receive substantial instruction in Thai plus strong English provision; some teach STEM subjects in English while keeping Thai language, culture and social studies in Thai. Schools vary in how much English is used, whether there is an English-medium track, and the level of Thai taught to non-native speakers, so check the timetable and sample curriculum for language balance and support services.
How much should we expect to pay for a Thai-curriculum or bilingual international school in Thailand?
Tuition varies by city, campus and level: many bilingual or Thai-curriculum schools sit in the lower-to-mid tiers of the international market, while older established international schools charge higher fees; across Bangkok the market spans from several hundred thousand baht a year at mid-range schools up to seven hundred thousand baht or more at higher-cost schools. Remember that published tuition is only part of the picture - most schools also charge application, registration and capital or activity fees, plus extras for transport, meals, uniforms and external exams.
When should we start applying and what does the admissions process typically involve?
Applications usually open many months ahead of the academic year and schools commonly accept rolling admissions, but the main intake for most international schools in Thailand is aligned to the August academic start with assessments or interviews used for placement. Expect an online application form, an assessment or interview (academic and/or language), and one-off charges such as an application or registration fee and sometimes a deposit that secures a place.
What practical things should relocating families check before choosing a Thai-curriculum international school?
Confirm the proportion of Thai versus English instruction and whether the school issues a curriculum that will be recognised by future schools or Thai universities; ask about English-as-an-additional-language support and how newcomers are assessed and placed. Also request the full fee schedule (tuition plus one-off and recurring extras), sample timetables and reports on accreditation or oversight so you can compare costs, language provision and academic pathways before enrolling.
