An Education Designed to Build on Potential

Since opening in 2019, BASIS International School Bangkok has brought the proven BASIS Curriculum to families in Thailand.

We combine ambitious academics with expert teaching, individual support, and a joyful learning environment where students are encouraged to question, explore, make connections, and take increasing ownership of their learning.

As part of the BASIS Curriculum Schools network, our students benefit from an educational model developed and refined over nearly three decades — while being part of a diverse international school community here in Bangkok.

An Education Designed to Build on Potential

A Curriculum That Builds Knowledge — and the Ability to Use It

At the heart of a BASIS Curriculum Education is our internationally benchmarked liberal arts and sciences curriculum — ambitious in its expectations, broad in its scope, and designed to inspire students to become confident, capable learners.

From the Early Years onwards, students develop strong foundations across mathematics, science, humanities, languages, arts, and other disciplines. As they progress, they encounter increasing depth, specialist teaching, and opportunities for advanced study.

Our spiraling approach to learning means important concepts aren’t simply taught once and left behind. Students revisit ideas with increasing depth and complexity, building on previous knowledge and making meaningful connections within and across subjects.

Supported by expert teachers who know when to challenge and when to guide, students develop more than academic knowledge. They learn to think critically, solve problems, communicate ideas, and approach new challenges with confidence.
