About Denla British School, Bangkok
Denla British School aims to nurture and develop great global leaders by developing knowledge, values and skills through our 5 pillars:
- An enhanced British curriculum
- Academic excellence for all
- Entrepreneurship and creative thinking
- Thai values in a global context
- Wellbeing and sustainability
The School is currently enrolling students aged 2 – 17 (Pre-Nursery to Year 12) and this year is our first year of Year 13.
Our vision is “to nurture and develop great global leaders” and to provide an inspiring and caring environment in which students develop a lifelong passion for learning and fulfill their unique potential. Our DBS curriculum emphasises the development of knowledge, values and skills and is grounded in the National Curriculum for England whilst also incorporating the best elements of a variety of international curricula. It is enhanced by an extended school day and our holistic vision for learning. We emphasise the importance of academic rigour, whilst also recognising that learning is not the sole domain of the classroom. Our co-curricular programme of activities is therefore central to each student’s learning journey at DBS. During a regular day at school, for instance, students might find themselves calculating mathematical equations, practising a musical piece by Chopin, and participating in a debating competition. We believe that our enhanced curriculum will cultivate increased engagement, motivation, and enjoyment for students.
Our school campus is spread across 18 acres, complete with contemporary, state of the art buildings which includes a swimming pool, 3 sports halls, football pitch and athletics track, 600 seat auditorium, black box theatre, climbing wall, golf simulator fitness suite and much more! Students of all ages will benefit from an array of purpose-built, premium facilities that support our holistic educational vision.

Location
Thai students are curious, entrepreneurial, respectful and a sincere pleasure to teach. Their adaptability, eagerness to learn and confidence in trying out-of-the-box ideas ensures each lesson feels exciting and progressive. The accommodation at DBS is truly fantastic; our apartment is spacious and well-furnished, with a beautiful view of the lush surrounding suburbs. The facilities are top notch, with the swimming pool and the fully-equipped gym being our particular favourites. Socially, the teaching community here is exactly that – a community. Supportive and adventurous, there is always something going on, from cultural visits to temples, fine-dining at Bangkok hotels, to relaxed afternoons on the Khao San road. If you ever had a question about what to do or where to go, there’ll be someone within the community who is happy to tell you (or show you!) and that really makes a difference.’ EY2 Class Teacher and Parent ‘Working at DBS has provided me and my family with a wealth of opportunities and experiences. From the moment I accepted the job offer I was instantly made to feel part of a team and I was excited to meet the rest of the staff. My family and I were provided with clean and comfortable accommodation, very close to the school; making our transition appear seamless. As a school we have grown in so many ways; I honestly feel like I have worked here for years. My children are happy and have settled quickly into their new setting; enjoying the unique opportunities made available to them at DBS. Thailand is a beautiful country in which to live, with stunning scenery, fantastic food and friendly people. We feel very safe here and family life is great.
- Teacher of English, Drama and ESLI felt secure throughout the whole onboarding process and it was clear that their communication was regular and efficient. Every time I speak to someone, people were up to date with my application/contract and I felt valued as a new employee immediately! We were then greeted by the Principal and his wife at the airport and then by the Senior Management Team on arriving at DBS. We were immediately given our Thai sim cards, security cards and keys to our accommodation. The staff apartments on site were a welcome surprise! It is clean, spacious and equipped with everything you could need to settle in and function as soon as you enter!
