Shrewsbury International School is located in Bangkok, Thailand. Although it is an independent school, it is closely affiliated to Shrewsbury School in the UK. The School reflects, replicates and achieves the high quality of education offered by its British sister school.
Shrewsbury School was founded in 1552, and has for 450 years been synonymous with academic excellence and rigour, found both in the classroom and beyond for the proper fulfilment of the potential of its pupils. As an enthusiastic and proactive partner, it encourages exchanges, engages in cross-curricular development and builds meaningful bridges designed to bring considerable benefit to the young on both sides of the world.
The Junior School follows the programmes of study as prescribed in the English National Curriculum. However, as is fitting in any international setting, there have been adaptations, both in terms of the content taught and the methodology in teaching it, to meet the specific needs of the student population.
The Curriculum in the Senior School is based on the English National Curriculum in Key Stage 3, with individual department heads tailoring their courses to take into account the pupil population and the local environment. In Key Stage 4 pupils follow two-year courses culminating in the IGCSE or GCSE examinations; at present 90% of examinations taken are IGCSE examinations. Most pupils then continue into the Sixth Form for A level study before heading off to universities around the world.
The staff at Shrewsbury International School are a team of highly motivated teaching professionals, whose sole aim is to provide the best standards of education for the pupils at the school.
Shrewsbury International School in Bangkok is located alongside the great Chao Phraya River, and is easily reached from Sathorn Road, Rama III and the Expressway (Chan Road exit), or via the Skytrain and from the river itself, with a regular ferry service from the Saphan Taksin BTS station.
Spacious and enjoying fresh air and cooling breezes from the Chao Phraya, the purpose-built campus offers wide-ranging facilities including an 800-seat auditorium and Music School, superbly equipped Science laboratories, a Design and Technology Centre, Art School, lecture and seminar rooms, sports fields, courts, gymnasia and swimming pools, all meeting the highest expectations and standards.
