Bloomsbury International School Hatyai

Bloomsbury International School Hatyai is a safe, happy and successful place to learn and to teach. The school offers a British curriculum to both day and boarding students aged 3-18. We are a small school, with just over 200 students on roll, yet we offer a wide range of IGCSE and A Level subjects. Class sizes are small and relationships between students and teachers are outstanding. Bloomsbury was founded in 2016 and boasts impressive buildings and modern facilities. We achieved full CIS accreditation in 2021.

Bloomsbury is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and young people in our care and requires all applicants to share this commitment. We follow recruitment practices which are aligned to the recommendations of the International Task Force on Child Protection. All appointments are subject to an interview, satisfactory professional references and checks of identity, criminal records and qualifications.

Location

Hatyai is located in southern Thailand, only 40 minutes' drive from the nearest beach in Songkhla Town and within easy reach of Krabi, Phuket, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Koh Samui and Koh Lipe, as well as Penang and Langkawi across the border in Malaysia. The international airport offers 16 flights per day to Bangkok and daily flights to Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, both of which are only a short distance away,opening up the rest of Asia. It is easy to spend your weekends or holidays exploring this beautiful part of the world.

Hatyai itself is an up and coming city without the high cost of living found in other more well known destinations in Thailand.  There are large western style malls and supermarkets, and many bars and restaurants  providing a range of international food, yet Hatyai retains a very 'Thai' feel and the population are very friendly and helpful, welcoming people with the famous 'Thai Smile'.
