About this school
Prem Tinsulanonda International School, which also calls itself Prem International School, opened in 2001 in Mae Rim, north of Chiang Mai. It was founded by M.L. Tridhosyuth Devakul as part of the Traidhos Three-Generation Community for Learning and is named after the Thai statesman General Prem Tinsulanonda.
Prem is an IB World School and the first in Thailand to offer all four IB programmes. The Early Years programme serves ages 2.5–5. The Primary Years Programme runs in Grades 1–5, the Middle Years Programme in Grades 6–10, and students in Grades 11–12 choose the Diploma Programme or the Career-related Programme. The school says it was the first in Southeast Asia to offer the Career-related Programme. An Intensive English Programme helps students in Grades 3–8 join mainstream classes.
Students can attend as day pupils or boarders. The 100-acre campus includes a forest school and a farm, and the school offers more than 100 co-curricular activities. The community includes 34 nationalities and offers seven home languages within the curriculum, and the school reports that 70% of its teachers hold a master's degree or higher.
