About this school
Australian International School Bangkok (AISB) was founded in 2002 and has more than 900 students from over 60 countries. It runs two campuses in the Sukhumvit area. The Soi 20 campus is for early years, and the Soi 31 campus is for primary and secondary.
The curriculum framework is based on the Australian curriculum, with input from syllabuses in the UK, USA, Canada and New Zealand. Inquiry-based learning, influenced by Harvard's Teaching for Understanding, is used in humanities, social science and science from the early years upward. The school is organised into three sections:
- Early Years: Nursery to Kindergarten, using Australia's Early Years Learning Framework
- Primary: Foundation to Year 6
- Secondary: Year 7 to Year 12
The school stresses literacy, numeracy, music, visual art, drama and physical development, with regular assessment. There is daily PE, and both campuses have covered pools for swimming lessons led by English-speaking coaches. AISB also runs a STEAM programme and student support services. Its teachers are qualified native English speakers. The school lists Cambridge International Education as a partner and displays international accreditation.
