About this school
Thai-Chinese International School (TCIS) opened on 1 September 1995 in Bang Phli, Samut Prakan, founded by Pornchai Uvimolchai and Suthum Changkajonsakdi, who also donated the land. It started with 100 students, added high school grades from 1998, graduated its first class in 2001 and received full K-12 WASC accreditation in 2002. Advanced Placement courses were introduced in 2003-2004.
Today TCIS enrols more than 660 students from age 2 to Grade 12 in separate elementary, middle and high school facilities. The college-preparatory American curriculum is taught in English, while Chinese (traditional and simplified) and Thai are taught daily by native-speaking teachers. Staff include more than 40 American and Canadian teachers, 14 Chinese teachers and 8 Thai teachers. The school is a member of ISAT and EARCOS and recognised by the Thai Ministry of Education.
The campus near Mega Bangna and Suvarnabhumi Airport includes a recreation centre with a library, gymnasium, indoor swimming pool and canteen, an AstroTurf sports field and running track, and a middle school building opened in 2009. After-school academic, athletic and enrichment programmes are offered.
