ISC was established in 2009 with the aim of creating a school that provided not only an excellent and rounded education for children aged 2 to 11 years old in and around the Pattaya region, but also provided a caring community.
We promote learning that is active and creative and encourage children to embrace challenge and celebrate success. Our curriculum is broad, balanced and inclusive and children have opportunities to participate in a wide range of cross-curricular activities as well as in art, music, and sports.
As a small school, we place a huge importance on developing the unique potential of each child. We teach children to become life-long lovers of learning, while also developing a sense of fairness, care and friendship.
We understand that every member of our community – children, parents, staff, the board and the local community — play an important part in the development of our children. Through these partnerships we aim to provide the best possible educational experience for each child as they continue to grow into global citizens of the 21st century.
