Worst International Schools In Thailand

The Top Ten
1 Singapore International School Bangkok

I feel sorry for the teachers. I think they have no dignity. They do manual labor, nanny the children, serve the parents like their personal secretaries. They come in early, breaking contract. Western teachers bow to the Thai anthem, and the Thai King No one is expected to swear loyalty to a foreign government in this day and age, but they do it? Secondary teachers had to carry their own classroom furniture over a km and up to their classes in the new building last month... no elevator...up 6 flights of stairs. All of this in plain view of the students. I hope they are being paid 300,000 baht a month. At least they would have an excuse then. Personally, my dignity is not for sale.

To be honest, I'd like to share with you guys my experience there, since I was in this school when it first opened, but overall, they force you into doing so MUCH work that I have a habit to skip Chinese, as you would hoard home more than 30+ pages a day, ask me about the weekends, not a relief time to enjoy on Friday, but a nightmare for students there. I have begged my parents to send me to another school, but for now, I'm stuck in 'Hell on Earth'

Speaking of food, better buy your own in 7-11.
If any student from SISB is reading this, everything you see in the school philosophy, motto, et cetera, it's all a lie. Also, I envy people moving out of the school.

2 RAIS

RAIS (short for Rowdy Association of Insane Students). Students who aren't being guided and taught properly. We all know who is to blame. Either the owners and administration do something about it or shut down. Don't fool around with innocent children's lives.

These kids won't get the chance to go back to the past and restart. They have one opportunity.
RESPECT THAT!

This school isn't responsible for student's welfare and future success. They play around with kids lives. What on earth are they thinking. Is Greed part of

RAIS do something to sort this mess out now and restore quality education or you will soon be broke and ridiculed. It's not too late.

The two head masters of this school: Peter&Anand
Are a disgrace of this school who never tries to listen to his students.
The school's cafeteria is the most awful factor about this school. The smell is disgusting as a toilet and the food tastes awful too. The school serves the same food for like 10 years already and it is also over priced.
Also the school takes money from students without informing where will it be used.
I bet every students who have studied in RAIS will agree with my comment. It definitely should be the worst international school of RAIS.

3 St. John's International School (SJIS)

This school is terrible. I am not surprised that this school is not the number 1 worst school in Thailand. The teachers and office are horrible and the teachers here are very lazy. One of the students here has been suspended for 4 times already but of course the school can't expel him because they don't have enough students. This school only cares about money and not the students education and is better off closed. My advice is to not bring your child to this school.

This school cares only on one thing, is money. my daughter, who used to studied there, told me that they gave out too much homeworks, she said that they banned phones, well, they should but what's the point of took their phone for one day? The meals there is not good, it tasted bad, as my daughter said. I'm not saying that I'm mad but, why can't they improve further. I want this school to know so badly that they used too much rules, bad foods, too much homeworks that could just stressed them out.

The Filipino assistant teachers in this school are not proper teachers, they are very rude and lazy they don't like to do any work at all. They like to gossip about the children's parents or each other and don't have proper work ethic. If you can pay the money you'll be better of sending your children to a much better school not this one.

This school has almost no kids in it, food is horrible, principle is rude, poor education, homework once every 3 weeks. So glad I left this school. If anyone wants to go to a good international school do not go here please!

4 Keerapat International School

Keerapat international school is a very good school. I admit that our education might not be as good as other schools. I disagree about the bad community thing because we really have a good community here. There are students that speak English all the time on campus, I think the reason that some students saw other students speak Thai is because they and their friends were the ones who are speaking Thai. We're are very strong in art and music. We have got many trophies for winning music competitions. I Have been a student here since grade seven and now I'm grade nine. My English was not very good until I came here. People are nice and very friendly. I disagree with the point that keerapat is the worst school.

This is the worst international school in Thailand.. I am a student there before and I do not learn anything. I get A but do not learn anything.. They are only good at collecting money and most teachers are not teaching.. They just let students watch you tube and play their phones... Foreign teachers in this school are very lazy and they are not real educators because they do not teach the students well... The school only get farang teachers to show their school has white teachers but they are not qualified... Parents.. Choose a school for your kids where they can learn everything and not only you tube, many homeworks, projects and power points... Keerapat is only getting your money... You fail, but you pay to get high grade.. The school only need your money but not give you the real education...

I think most of these comments were written a while ago and some by people with some kind of agenda. That being said the school had many many problems and most of those comments were not unfounded. However, I was a part of the school for the past few years and have recently moved on to a better opportunity. When I first arrived many changes were in progress. a few weren't great but the overwhelming majority were for the better.

When I left a few months ago I can honestly say the school was doing well on all fronts but first and foremost the quality of education the students were receiving was very good... and it shows... their MAP (measure of academic performance) scores have improved a great deal. Many but not all students speak English to one another on campus not just in class. Things have gotten a lot better and I believe it is a good educational institution. WASC gave them a 5 year accreditation which is the most they give so they have reviewed them and have good faith ...more

I am parent.. And was very disappointed about this school... They have tutorials after school but they don't teach the students very well.. They should stop the tutorials after school and should teach the students in class well... Because tutorial is only additional collecting money and students are not learning... This is only additional money for Keerapat to collect from parents... PARENTS.. Don't pay tutorials after skol in this school beacuase it is useless... Keerapat should stop this and should tell their teachers to teach the students very well, so no need for after school...

5 Concordian International School Bangkok (CIS)

Forcing too much unnecessary knowledge into kids. Concordian's kid don't learn to respect their elders the right way. In most case when someone did something wrong, they left without saying sorry, their guardian often have to come in and apologize in their places. My cousin is in 6th grade in Concordian, she sometime works until 10:00pm or 2:00am, give me a break. There're many foreign teachers that comes to teach at this school but most of them doesn't have a teaching degree. Worst of all is how to school treated a children who they judge that they're not smart enough. In Concordian, it doesn't matter how smart you are, if you are once in weaker class, then you continues to be in it until you get to high school. I used to be a CIS student, 2 years ago I went to visit my friends and the guard doesn't let me in saying that I'm a outsider and the school doesn't want outsider to cause harm to their student. Being here for 8 years of my life and now I'm an outsider for them.

As a student council representative, I would agree that Concordian is broken. The PYP is a lovely and warm environment but the MYP and DP aren't that great. Firstly, the administrator has misused its power and is bullying the student body. They have forced students to agree in highly unfair contracts dictating our behavior even though we have already agreed to such a contract already. This contract reduced tolerance and created widespread fear, hatred, and stress within the student body. They have also used forced labor by forcing students to clean toilets when they have a Saturday detention. This is clearly unethical and is a violation of labor laws. They don't even pay students the same way they pay maids. Our pay 720,000 baht each year! We deserve to be respected! The method of detention is also highly ineffective; there has been no substantial evidence to suggest that the method of detention has reduced the number of offenses committed by students.

Teachers and students are disrespectful that's why they have so little children, in future it wont even exist. They focus more about getting the IB certificate than grades, whats the point of having low grades with an IB certificate? They think that by killing the students and putting pressure on them they will succeed, students must get homeworks but not to this extent even HARVARD doesn't do that! They must not know the definition for "learning" or "school" It is more of a military school than anything else, students look like zombies and really I say it again the teachers are very rude and if they were in another school they wont last. They are building a "geek/nerdy" atmosphere where most of the students feel uncomfortable, they think that they're ontop of the world where really they're down in the bottom, I don't know who they think they really are? Plus their students don't get into top universities compared to other schools. (sad life sad future) I suggest it shuts down

Bad community. Most parents are competing who is richer by putting all brand-named products from top to toe even in the nursery class! The kids are spoiled and some bully others. One boy stabbed a pencil on other kid's hand.. And that was without any word "sorry" from his mom. Another time, a boy punched his classmate just because his classmate went up the stair before him who is head of the class.

This is just few examples. I don't think this is a good choice to send your kids to.

6 Bangkok Christian International School (BCIS)

BCIS is a good friendly school. We offer AP classes with variaty choices. I LOVE BCIS! As a Christian school, everyone is friendly and will never look down on each other. My class has 3 girls 4 boys, a small warming environment. Teachers are strict but good and respect the students.

Awful place don't believe the trolls below "We offer AP classes..." They are stupid with their fake postings but people who kid go there no the truth.

Force religion, very old school punishments (eg. Lines), and unfriendly environment. Also, teachers working on a toursit visa is illegal.

7 Modern International School, Bangkok

I don't know where to start. Horrible school. Horrible food. Teachers are moody and can't control their anger. Students are show-offs who think their the best. It's extremely partial and sexist to boys. Even girls can't be saved.
You can't play any game apart from basketball and football(you can only play if you are a pro). It's an overall bad school with bad teachers and bad facilities. What facilities are there? NONE. Broken air conditioners and unhygienic toilets are everywhere in the school. Your education will be left incomplete
in a traumatic condition, as the school is extremely stingy and doesn't spend any money on facilities. The places where you can relax in this school is similar to trying to find gold, it's impossible as there is no space in this school. If you like congested classrooms and horrible education, this is the school for you.
So please instead save your money and life and don't attend here. Your welcome,...

This school is the worst, We are not even allowed to play a running game in it. Teachers always expect us to study. Many teachers are partial and sexist. Its not an international school, not international food (poor quality also), Technology services are very weak. This school can't print coloured papers for worksheets. Not enough space for playing. This school contain only 2% international students.

Students get bullied by teachers here. The community is bad. The people are practically all bullies. The prinicipal is a one-sided jerk. The teachers, only some are good. The rest? Not even close. Food? Vegetarian all the way. Activities? Hardly.

The English in this school is so bad and the teachers just don't teach properly when ever I have doubts and ask. The teacher just yells at you
I would not recommend this school for your child.

8 Pan Asia International School

The administration is greedy and shady. A majority of the western teachers left or were let go this year. The ones remaining are looking to leave also. Many parents, including myself, are moving their children to other schools, forcing the school to offer macbook air laptops to existing parents who refer a new student who pays full tuition upon enrollment. Beware, they are desperate and only want your money and my money.

Pan Asia sucks! The food is bad and the quality of the bathroom and the quality of the water there is very bad. I hate Pan Asia. It's such a bad school. Kids get annoyed at some of the teacher. Anyways this school is a Muslim school. The school is very small. The quality needs to improve some more. It should be better than this.

The negative comments must be very old. I have seen none of these at PAIS. They have the most caring management members. All qualified. Most of them have Master's Degree in Education. Curriculum keeps improving. They have been doing IB DP successfully and they even started doing IB MYP this year. They hire very qualified teachers from all around the world and provide them with PD to always improve. I don't see why anyone would hate this school.

Do NOT waste your kids time or your money in this armpit. Unless you are font of Turkey's educational system, this is not the school for your kids. The teachers are terrible, the turnover extremely high, the curriculum is a joke, leaving you with nothing but prayers. After one horrible year there, we took our kids down the street to the Charter International School (www.charter.ac.th) and it has been a truly liberating experience.

9 Ekamai International School

I am a former student and I was there since grade 1. I'll tell you all the facts. It's so true that almost all teachers are filipino. Not to be racist, but believe me they are hard to deal with. About 80% are not qualified to be teachers. But just this year, the school did fire 70% of them out.

The main problem now is that they suck with managing "MONEY". They use all the money in useless things. And lack money in needing things. And to be honest, if your parents income money are high (on the registration paper), they actually send you letters asking for money! And you MUST give like 30,000 for no reason (THIS IS TRUE).

And the best part of all... The student principal... One time I got into this fight. Which she just conclude all the things up by herself without asking us if it is really like what happened. And guess what, she calls in our parent, reporting all the things in the way SHE thought happen. And adding more to the story. Which what ACTUALLY happen is all ...more

I moved to EIS in 2nd grade. The first year when I moved there I wasn't expecting so much hate from my peers. As a 9 year old kid at the time I was a very oblivious and happy kid. Until everything started to change. I got bullied everyday for not knowing the latest trend or knowing how to swear. I couldn't last long a day without having to defend myself for being bullied the entire day. I remember crying in the bathroom stalls while they poor water in and I have to chase them away with a broom stick... and the worse thing happened to me was that I was ganged up by the girls and almost died. This may sound a bit dramatic and stupid, but I was tickled to the point I couldn't breathe... there's not a day I don't come home without a piece of me being broken. I was hated for having an American accent as an Asian kid like them, they said I was "faking smart" I literally was confused, we go to an "American school" and I'm being hated for having an American accent? The ...more

Forrest Gump said that "stupid is as stupid does." That certainly seems to reflect what is going on at EIS where stupidity is king. Whenever a decision is actually being made, it is always the wrong one and needless to say; we, the students are suffering. Promises are made and promises are broken whenever it suits the leaders, rules are created (we have about 12 million of them) and rules are bravely ignored by everyone. Policies are put in place without anyone knowing anything and regulations are a joke to start with. Everything is money driven. Just to speak with good old Forrest: "My mama always said, 'Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.'" If you are thinking about sending your child here, my advice is to think again and to think hard. Forrest said that "You have to do the best with what God gave you." Well, if this is the best that God gave then it is time to go somewhere else. "Run, Forrest! Run! "

The horror stories of EIS can NOT be understated. I was a teacher there for 3 years & I was the ONLY credentialed teacher during my tenure at EIS, I have a California teaching credential and 2 (USA) college degrees. Any teacher or administrator that is properly educated or credentialed or just an outsider to the 'power group' that runs the school is considered a threat and they are harassed & bullied until they leave - "voluntarily". Whatever reviews are written in this article are just the tip of the iceberg of the problems at EIS. My deepest sadness is that there are some really good kids at EIS who deserve so much more than what the school is providing them.

10 Anglo Singapore International School

The school is very biased towards the Owner's children. The classes the are in are of high standards but the rest of the school is usually ignored. Also the school looks more towards results rather than how it is actually achieved. The school will use academic achievements to their advantage and show off all of them. Food and materials are usually reasonable and teachers are of very good origin and with their degrees from top universities but still many of them leave the school even after only 1 school year. Also the school participates in sports tournaments with other bad schools in Bangkok and they still have the will to say they are one of the best schools in Thailand. Any of your achievements will be marketed and many of the activities in the school are overpriced.

This school once had many great teachers, but so many have left. Their primary level English departments are still quite good, with qualified and dedicated teachers in 3 different campuses. I think the biggest problem is salary that does not meet the same standard of other good schools, so the expectations of the school and pressure is high but the benefits to the teachers are very low in comparison. Even a great teacher can only put up with that for so long. Everyone must look after themselves and their own families. My kids loved their English teachers and they learned a lot from them. Anglo just needs to retain the good teachers and only improved benefits and salaries will do this.

Please don't ever send your kids here, waste of time and waster of money. The school fee is ridiculously expensive however the quality is horrible. The teachers are really mean to the kids, some even swear during class. The students here are terrible, more than 90% of the kids here are from Thai Schools so they always speak Thai. Bright kids who know that there would be no future ahead of them leave Anglo right after primary. It's just the stupid kids with no place to go who continue staying here. Please don't ever move your child here, waste of time, waste of money, I am 100% sure that you are going to regret it. This school SUCKS! P.S. Please don't even think of stepping your foot into this school.

My friend just quit working at Anglo because the amount of work was insane and unreasonable. I went to an interview there and the amount of work asked did not match the salary offered - I even told Julie that to her face at the interview and she thought I was crazy. Actually she is the one that is not in touch with reality. The price of Singapore being number one is that it has one of the highest suicide rates. Their philosophy is that teachers are their slaves, they own the teachers, and all their free time on weekends and vacations will be spent doing lesson plans and checking notebooks and writing journals.

The Contenders
11 Ruamrudee International School (RIS)

What a great school! From an insiders' perspective the school is moving in the right direction. The goal of the school is to keep high quality focus on students' academic and social / emotional development and that is what we are seeing. No organization is perfect, however, RIS is striving to meet the daily challenges of running a highly respected Catholic school. The priests add strength and support to the leadership of the school without dominating. This year, two new administrators were added along with a new AD. This was done in support of the rigor in curricular and athletic expectation from the very young learner to the graduate. The school definitely is beginning to regain its reputation as an excellent international school with an American curriculum. Way to go, RIS!

I think most of these post should be taken with a grain of salt. RIS is a very child centered school. It has many things to be proud of especially their students! Teachers for the most part are high quality. The elementary school has excellent teachers, support staff, and administrative team. They appear to work together as a strong team to meet the needs of students. Issues come up and are worked through as a team as quickly as possible. Super supportive parents!

Most schools with a great reputation in Bangkok live up to their expectations. This school is NOT one of them. The management had been an absolute disaster for years and there have been no efforts to improve as far as I can see. The teaching quality had been continuously sliding down too. Pulling my kids out of there last year was the best decision I've ever made for their education. I truly believe that.

RIS was a great school many years ago, but it got worse for a long time now. Many local people I know still think it is the best school in Bangkok because people think that way a long time ago and do not know how the school is in current situation. There is not a good value for money investment in my opinion.

12 Ascot International School

After almost 9 years at the school (and around 5 million baht paid in school fees), both my kids are now 2 grades below the national average in UK and US. The head teacher is, as stated in another comment in this thread, a buffoon... and that's being kind! He interferes with the teachers academic initiatives (eg: English teachers have been told to stop the kids studying Shakespeare and told to make them watch a movie of the plays instead). Petty regulations, including barring students from using their own computers, frustrate students and parents alike. Used to be a well-run and friendly environment, now it's a misery. Desperately looking to get my kids out of this failing mess of a school, but because of the appalling academic shortcomings, they, together with many of the remaining secondary students are failing entrance tests at every other school we have tried to enrol them in. To put this into perspective, 40% of the students in our eldest child's class left at the end of the last ...more

This school can be compared to an LEDC. Corrupted management and inexperienced teachers and most importantly, a dictative unreasonable headmaster. This school is like Germany in 1939.

Unreasonable headmaster. Interrupt students while they are playing. Force students to go home.

Sme of the teachers are lazy, high staff turn over this year especially and run by a buffoon.

13 Shrewsbury International School

I don't mind the Filipino teachers because they are kind and smart. It's just that the majority of the student population now are Thai. Thought I don't see anything wrong with it. It's just that the essence of the school being an international school just did not supply justice to its brand "international".

I don't think shrewsbury international school sucks because I studied there 3 years ago and it was really fun and enjoying the teachers there are nice and there are not so many filipino teachers there maybe 5% only. They also teach amazingly because of what I learned there I'm always at the top of our class! I leave shrewsbury international school because I have to go back to our home country!

Shrewsbury use to be good but the past 3 years it suck a lot. All good teacher left and from English teacher now they are hire Philippines teacher. So I left with some of my friends.

14 RBIS Rasami British International School

This year, the Head of secondary lost position and a very bad teacher, speaking English as a pig took his position. Tattoo, piercing and horrible potatoes bag clothes are the definition of the head of secondary today. Teachers can not speak directly with the parents, the head wants to control all. But during class, students must correct the English teacher because the every day mistake...so low...students are not able to speak English after 10 years learning...

With the new HM now vulgarity is the word...check the picture of him on the web and you ll understand how unprofessional he is...so poor level...

I'm a parent myself and I don't want to be mean but my children come back home and always say that the school provides bad education, the headmaster is the worst person, my children's friend that went out of the school said, "the headmaster wasn't welcoming old students and he was saying the school doesn't welcome past students and want them to never step in to the school again." Worst school ever. I regret it trusting the school, and I will regret it for my whole life but I'm letting my children moving out this year.

What disgraceful use of language. Quite clearly, these comments have not been reviewed by the administrator before being posted - as this website comments box professes it 'may' do.
In the school's defense, it has qualified teachers, who provide interesting and engaging lessons. There is a lot of hard work, time and energy that goes into ensuring the students get the very best from their education, along with friendly staff who want nothing more than to support the children!

Why do you have to be so Butt Hurt about these negative opinions of everyone else, they have the freedom to express their words so I recommend you to just Shut Up. And yea, the senior teacher and the head teacher of secondary is just pure cancer and has no experience. The rest of the Thai staff and maids are very good and they are nice and do not randomly tell students of like the senior teacher and the head master... It is sad to know some students are getting told off by just very minor things... These students have told me myself so if you wanna complain, Just Shut The Hell Up.

15 International School of Bangkok

Who wants 5th graders still learning 2 multiplied by 6? The bratty teachers teach NOTHING here. If I don't have a tutor by now I would be dumber than a nursery child. My 5th grade teacher is the worst. He keeps telling us he graduated at Colorado college. And so what? And he keeps telling me that I am not wise. As if he is any wiser. And he says that he is the smartest adult I know. My dad is smarter than that bragging brat. And they say that you shouldn't brag. "Most of the students here end up at MIT" I guess we should clap for the tutors, right? I mean if we don't have someone to teach us math after school how will ISB's 2 times 6 in FIFTH GRADE get us to MIT?

"We give kids good food with lots of nutrition." Is that what you call vegetables that have been left out for 2 days? Or food with fingernails or hair or insects sometimes in it? This is why I pack my lunch

This school kills your will to continue on to be inspired, willing and yearning for knowledge. The teachers sap everything from you, the counselors kill you. Everyone is a demon. Only a few Angels yes, but they all leave when things get bad. So the only ones left are the trash. They don't teach, they expect rich kids to have tutors, rich stupid kids have their parents bribe. Counselors like some fat blond idiot bully you to buy them expensive treats. racists. food gives you food poisoning.

It's a killer place there, and they took what I loved, and people who I cared about. I miss you. anthony.

16 Wells International School

You know how expats work. If they come to Thailand, then one day, they might go back to their home country (obviously) and if there are schools in Thailand that offer them higher pay rates then they will go (again, obviously).Wells is just like that. about 10 teachers leave every year and some year they have about 20 leaving. The new teachers aren't even good, they come from worse schools and it's making Wells go down in quality so much. Teachers, both new and old have horrible excuses about how they deal with problem like if the teacher is late they say "why didn't kids call me? " And when teachers didn't post homework on any of their so called "sites", principal says that students must remember. Then screw those sites and timetable. every time you have class at wells from now on then make sure you record your teacher's voice so there are no more space for silly excuses. Don't even let me say the whole story. Crap

The facility is very small. They don't have football field in the school. The students are mostly Thai and Indian which is okay but no offense to the Thai and Indian, there should be a diversity in this school. They have way too many kids in one classroom most of it being Thai kid. Speaks thai all day and they should be here to learn English a little bit at least. I think they should help consider smart people first not where their from because they just take everyone that apply. I think quality will become lower.

The teachers are quite nice and welcoming, there's no doubt about that. But when it comes to academics (only in upper grades), academic stuff changes every single year. One year, they have ESL, the other year they will not but instead make a class for "dumb" people and called them special class. W T F? Then they give little kids free block, yes its not study block, it's free block. Some teachers are very keen about what they do but then they don't have any area in the school to accomodate what should be done for the students to become better.

Truly hopeless campus where you can see Thai kids walking in and out every morning anf end of school day swearing, talking in Thai and small kids were wearing make-up and expensive shoes! They are not teaching kids to keep their proper looks outside school in anyway. You can even see kids skipping school arriving late but acting like noting happens. There are under-qualify teachers who doesn't work properly and have very bad English, surely students copy their teachers especially the young ones.

17 Heathfield International School

Her owner son is such a moron, very rude who always say bad word in thai, and he caused problem to many of school boys and girls. Teachers could not touch even Headmaster could not say anything since he is owner son. This behaviors must have been introduced from his home!

I left this school last year and have gone to another school to finish my study. It is a joke the headmaster (who use that name these days? ) act like dictator and lie and cover himself by lies and aggressive. There are no Facilities not even a field or clean toilet.

This school is near me and we visited a few years ago when choose the school. My opinion is that is more like the bilingual school not real international school. Price is low but I think there is better bilingual school for less money if that is what you want.

The best school in Bangkok! I sent our kids to study here because we believe in curriculum and the great activities that the school offers to our children. Glad that we choose the right school for them where they find happiness and fun through learning

18 Bangkok Patana School

Patana is a horrible school. The teachers don't care about the students, only making money and are very selfish. The teachers are either too old or too young. The school uniform rules are so stupid and the school cares more about the uniform rules than the students education. Every student I have talked too that attend Patana can agree that Patana has good facilities but horrible teachers, and students.Worst school.

School administration became so snob. Not receiving feedback. They believe they ae the best in the world. But no, teacher quality is getting worst every semester. And when we mentioned this, answers are same:
- we have the best facilities
- we are rejecting 1000 candidates every month
- we have best facilities
- again, we have the best facilities...

I am a BISAC swimmer for my school (not saying which one) but these kids are always making a scene, and being arrogant, snotty, and downright uncouth. Their parents don't even notice, and it's quite an annoyance to the other competing schools.

The students in BPS is very disrespectful to other school, During every BISAC event parents and students of BPS always disrespect students from other school by saying foul word in front of the parents and coaches of the students from other school.

19 Bangkok International Preparatory & Secondary School (Bangkok Prep)

I was in this school and it SUCKS. First of all the staff is HORRIBLE, the cleaners are either rude or leave the tissues,stains or worst, trash from almost a week ago sometimes. In the primary school and secondary campus the food, in the primary school the food is horrible that kids hate it and some don't even eat any of it except the rice or fruits, I can't tell you much about secondary food. But that's what made me switch to packed lunch. Now lets get to the quality. How do I put this nicely. We'll start on with the playground. When I was in younger the toys we had to play with at the time were taken away until now,where I am now, the reason why it got taken away was because of the younger students. They broke our toys. the older students got punished by not having it, while the younger students who broke it got more toys and no punishment. Now lets get to the teachers. STUPID ON SO MANY LEVELS! basically the teachers very rarely teach you important stuff, the rest you don't even ...more

This school is suck primary school so small but fee so high not even have clean and enough toilet for parent.Teacher suck depend on your luck most of them are not qualify, so many way to get info from school, super confuse and they not care enough about parent and kid..they policy always right.. facility suck.Not worth it.

I agree, this school is suck...primary school is suck, poor communicate, fee so high compare to facility they give you is horrible, teacher not qualify most of them are real teacher.school is nothing only have 1 toilet for parent in campus.How that's happen? Try to have problem with their policy you will never win, they always right..just wanna take your money and do anything they want because they already get your entrance fee.

20 Bromsgrove International School Thailand

Shocking turnover of staff. The school turned away from the support offered by its Bromsgrove host school in the UK and its excellent Headmasters who brought a quality to the school and employed a couple of con artists who turned it into a back packer school. Most teachers unqualified by Thai Teaching Council standards. All the good teachers left as did most of the kids. Shame it was making a good go of it by and was growing in size and reputation. It's reputation now lays in taters. Owners have realised their mistake and are slowly getting rid of them starting with the Deputy Head and then the Head.

I have been to visit this school also and it was not like the expectation. They say there is large campus but I only can see 1 school building. The parents I know joined last year for 2 children and they leave already.

The rules are too strict and stupid and it feels like a prison. The boarding is also too expensive

This school is falling apart at the seams. It's a shame really.

21 Crescent International School

This school is being run by people with absolutely no education background. The majority of teachers there also do not have an educational background and are 2nd or 3rd language English speakers teaching a UK curriculum.
Please reconsider before sending your child to this 'institution'

Useless school rules, the secondary teacher are mostly Indians. I could barely understand what they're saying. The chemistry teacher is the most boring and the laziest teacher out of all. Everything in this school sucks.

I already study in this school and sucks the teacher take everything to serious. and my english is so bad and there is to many indian teachers and also the admission love money

I do not understand how this can be international school because the teachers are not certified to be teacher.

22 Siam International School

When the old husband/wife owners fought and one got arrested for having a hidden room full of weapons, you had to know something was wrong. Whoever takes over this school has a long time before they can recover.

Never heard anything but horror stories about this school. I communicated once with them about a director position; completely rude and unprofessional. Money can't by manners.

Teachers have gone as long as 4 months with no pay. Even is 2019 the website is non-functioning. They talk every 18 months about a new beginning.

A no-name school waste of your time and money.

23 New Sathorn International School

This is a Korean school, with conniving Korean owners who cheat their teachers, with disrespectful racist Korean students with impudent behavior, and vain, proud, ungracious, ungrateful Korean parents who complain a lot if you say anything bad about their perfect children. Korean cronyism is practiced there; If you are not Korean you will never win at this school as a teacher. They treat their teachers like second class citizens and as disposable resources. I'm surprised they don't make their teachers use the back door. In fact Korea has the 2nd highest suicide rate in the world because of their sick pride. I really believe I saw and experienced a microcosm of the mental illness of Koreans as a whole. North Korea is just a manifestation of the fascist mentally ill mind of the Korean people. They call themselves Christians but they are far from it.

The comment below is 100 % true. The management is disconnect from the actual teaching. Their tactics of bullying, yelling and threatening behavior is very unprofessional. I think they like it that way.

Horrific place to work. Teachers treated like dirt, run by power hungry farang that like to make up the rules as they go. Avoid at all costs.

24 Garden International School Pattaya

Garden International School (GIS)-Rayong A review from a concerned parent. May 2016

We are writing this review to help parents researching education options for their children, and we'll start by saying the overwhelming percentage of teachers and teacher assistants are very good educators dedicated to the students and their jobs. The principal and administration are unfortunately the complete opposite and have little regard for the students and zero regard for concerns of the parents.

When we started our son at GIS the atmosphere between teachers and parents was open, communicative and collaborative. We believed we had found our son's permanent school and bought a home close by. Over the last two years under the management of the current principal and MBF Taylor mangers the atmosphere at the school has degraded to an us against them situation between parents and the administration. We provide some specific examples below:

- A serious outbreak of Hand Foot Mouth ...more

Well, I once learnt in garden international school Bangkok, and I think that my school sucks because there no tests really and lame people came to this school so this school, in conclusion is totally, totally lame.

A fantastic school with a great family atmosphere. Lots of major improvements over the past few years and now the only school in the region to be accredited by the Council of International Schools.

I left this school five years ago and then came back because I didn't find anywhere as friendly and caring. I love this school

25 NIST International School

I hate this school so much. Some teachers are good but most of them didn't even get a good education and their teaching is just bad. Also, too many Indians. Not to be racist but most of the people I see here are Indians. 2/10 recommend for high school here. Students here are just bunch of spoiled kids.

Too many spoiled brats that think they don't have to study to succeed. They have the IB, but that's about it. No good sense of community.

Is this the culture where students would sit with their feet at the teacher's face? I don't know, students are rich but very spoiled and unrespectful

People who learn here have bad English and grammar.
