We have a well-resourced multi-building campus and are in the process of building world-class sports facilities. Our commitment to hiring well-qualified staff and ensuring continuous professional development ensures that our students leave us with the academic qualifications desired by top universities both in Thailand and further afield.

Norwich International School’s curriculum is based on the best of the English National Curriculum. In Early Years, our curriculum is based on the EYFS framework and embraces the learner-centred and enquiry-based principles of the curiosity approach.
