Introduction

Nursery and Kindergarten at the International School of Phuket (ISP) is an early years provision on Phuket Island, Thailand, operating a purpose-built campus in Rawai. The setting follows the UK Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum and accepts children aged 2 to 6 (nursery 2–4; kindergarten 4–6). Instruction is delivered in English; the wider ISP school notes that classroom teachers are native English speakers and the school runs an ELL (English Language Learner) programme to support children whose English is insufficient for mainstream classes. The provision emphasises learning through play, small class sizes and low staff–child ratios (published as 5:1 in the nursery and 10:1 in kindergarten), and an eco-friendly approach that includes on-site gardening and upcycling activities. The campus is described as nature‑inspired with outdoor play areas, and the nursery provides three balanced meals per day. The programme and facilities are presented as part of ISP's small-community model with a stated maximum nursery and kindergarten capacity of 110 students.

This campus is part of International School of Phuket (ISP)
