About this school
Beaconhouse Yamsaard International School (BYIS) is on Pattanakarn Soi 78 in Prawet, eastern Bangkok. It belongs to the Beaconhouse Yamsaard School Group. The group began in 1984, when Khun Thamrong and Khun Prapai Yamsaard opened the first Yamsaard School in Soi Ladprao 26. In 2014 it merged with the Beaconhouse School System, founded in 1975, which operates in several countries. BYIS was added as the group's international school, and its sister schools at Rangsit, Ladprao and Hua Hin run bilingual programmes.
BYIS teaches children from Nursery to Year 7:
- Nursery and Kindergarten 1–2: Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), with play-based learning
- Primary Years 1–7: aligned with the UK National Curriculum, with Cambridge standardised tests
Classes have no more than 20 students. Early years and Years 1–4 have a homeroom teacher and a co-teacher. Teaching is in English. Thai is taught at all levels, and Mandarin starts in K1. The primary timetable includes Global Perspectives, PSHE, ICT, robotics, music, art and swimming.
