About Us:
TSIS International School has been educating students since 1985 and was one of Bangkok’s first international schools. TSIS is a non-profit school governed by a charitable foundation. Since the introduction of new management in 2017, the school has gone from strength to strength. We continue to experience a very significant increase in enrolments as our teachers, systems, and facilities have been renewed and our reputation for providing world-class international schooling continues to grow.
TSIS is a thriving, family-orientated school, with an incredibly strong sense of community and an increasingly diverse mix of nationalities (25 in January 2024). We employ highly committed, western-qualified teachers who facilitate learning founded on the English National Curriculum using engaging inquiry-based teaching strategies.
With an exceptional team of teachers at our Secondary School, students have achieved excellent IGCSE and A-Level exam results in recent years and are now studying at universities all around the world. Our Secondary School is ideally located a few minutes from Bearing BTS station. The very spacious and leafy campus offers very generous outdoor sports facilities, a huge Gymnasium, open-air Swimming Pool and modern classroom learning environments. From August 2025, we will be offering Primary schooling at this campus as well, with the construction of a brand new Primary School now being developed.
The existing TSIS Primary School campus is conveniently located in the Wongwianyai District of Bangkok. The campus is an ideal environment for children aged 2-11 years to grow and learn together. It is equipped with academic, sporting and other extracurricular facilities that outshine many other international schools in the area. In addition to spacious classrooms, facilities incorporated in the design of the four-storey building include an assembly hall, air-conditioned gymnasium and dining hall.

TSI International School has been educating students since 1985 and was one of Bangkok’s first international schools. TSI is a non-profit school governed by a charitable foundation. In 2017, the school began a renewal process with new management and a complete review of our Values and Guiding Statements. Over the past 7 years, the school has gone from strength to strength. We continue to experience a significant increase in enrolments as our reputation for providing world-class international schooling continues to grow. In August 2025, we will open our second primary school at our Bearing Campus (current secondary school).
We have moved on from a ‘renewal’ phase and are now firmly entrenched in school improvement and working towards reinstating our fully accredited status with CIS. We recently had Council of International Schools (CIS) evaluators visit both school campuses as a part of their Preparatory Evaluation report. One evaluator posted the following on LinkedIn after the visit:
“My colleague and I spent the week getting to know so many of the dedicated and supportive educators and administrators, as well as the students and parents of this thriving learning community. Truly future-focused learning and teaching was witnessed during our time there.”
They also noted the TSI team was “confidently moving the school forward into its next phase of development.”
Aside from the package, why should you join TSI International School?
We believe this about working at our school:
- Our school fosters a positive team culture and maintains an open-door policy.
- Executive Leaders welcome new initiatives and are committed to driving school improvement.
- Teachers are encouraged to take initiative and be creative in their teaching methodologies.
- We prioritise maintaining a supportive and collaborative work environment.
- Incredibly strong sense of community and an increasingly diverse mix of nationalities (35 in November 2024).

The new primary school is modern, safe and functional. It has been carefully designed to meet the developmental needs of children as they pass through the first three Key Stages of the UK curriculum. Input of school leaders has been truly incorporated into the design of the primary school, prioritising educational functionality over design trends which will come and go. Phase one of the new primary school will incorporate classrooms and specialist learning areas for STEAM, ICT, the Arts and Languages. The large multipurpose hall on floor 2 will sit upon a modern cafeteria that will serve healthy food that kids typically love to eat.
The centre court of the new school will be multipurpose. An area for play, an area for outdoor learning, an area for community. Behind the school there will be a spacious, natural playground.
