• Brand new school in the heart of Bangkok
• Job starts Early August 2022

Aster International School Bangkok will launch in August 2022. We are looking for energetic, innovative and enthusiastic professionals who want to join us at the start of our journey. Aster International School Bangkok will be a British style international school, teaching an enhanced version of the ENC in a modern and purpose built environment. Our teachers need to be prepared to be leaders as well as learners as we collaborate to create a unique school environment and approach to curriculum delivery.

The Primary phase at Aster International School Bangkok will be a fun and lively environment to work in. We are looking forward to receiving applications from teachers who have experience within Key Stage 1 and a passion to deliver the curriculum in an engaging and innovative way, which bridges the gap between Foundation Stage and Primary Stage learning styles. 

Aster International School Bangkok is located in the heart of Bangkok, in the Sathorn district. The school is positioned to give easy access to Sathorn, Silom, Sukhumvit and also the riverside area. We are taking over the purpose built facilities of a current school and modernising them to suit mid-twenty first century learning needs. The school has specialist teaching areas for languages, art, music, PE and ICT, as well as an auditorium and extensive garden space. The classrooms are large and well equipped. To find out a little more please see our website www.asterbangkok.com, which is being updated weekly as we get closer to launching the school.

Bangkok is an exciting city to live in and Thailand a wonderful host for international teachers. The city offers a lifestyle where modern living and traditional Thai culture mix seamlessly. Bangkok is also the gateway to the amazing islands and beaches that Thailand is known for, as well as a hub for transport in South East Asia, making long haul and short haul travel easy and convenient.

We will be building our school around our Wisdom Values:

• Wise – We use what we learn in a positive and purposeful way
• Intercultural – We celebrate our similarities and differences
• Service – We support, help and care for those around us
• Decision Makers – We are critical thinkers and do not rush to judgement
