PAIS is located on Charaemprakiat Road in southeastern Bangkok’s Prawet district, 20 kilometers from the city’s center. The school’s location is at the heart of a rapidly growing and developing area about 10 kilometers from Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport. PAIS is a focal point for the surrounding neighborhoods, offering a place for community social events and learning opportunities. The school has grown rapidly from a single building in 2004 to its current structure, which includes two buildings, a football pitch, a covered gymnasium court, and a covered swimming pool. In 2008 plans were developed to expand the school by constructing new kindergarten and primary buildings.
PAIS currently offers classes from kindergarten to grade nine, adding an additional grade to the high school with each subsequent school year. Ultimately, PAIS will be a complete KG-12 school. PAIS draws students from across Bangkok. During the 2008-2009 school year, PAIS had more than 370 students in kindergarten to grade nine. The PAIS student population reflects Bangkok’s multi-ethnic, multi-cultural diversity. PAIS students represent more than 41 different nations of origin.
The school’s curriculum for core subjects (English, science, mathematics, social studies) is based on American standards and content. PAIS teachers implement the curriculum through modern, research -based, student-centered methodologies, including inquiry and project-based units of study. A commitment to providing a wide range of extra-curricular activities offers PAIS students the opportunity to cultivate all their varied talents and interests.
PAIS aims to create balanced students with advanced critical thinking skills and strong moral character. For most students at PAIS, English is not their first language, so the school provides support in the form of additional English language instruction and tutoring. Admission to the school for grades five to eight requires a review of a student’s prior learning achievements, as well as the passing of PAIS entrance examinations and interviews.
