Garden International School, Bangkok offers a premium international education, based on the British education model, in a friendly, family orientated environment. The school is located in the Sathorn districts, close to Lumpini Park in the center of Bangkok. We have children represented by approximately 35 countries, immersing all students in a rich diversity of cultures, religions and backgrounds. The school is accredited by Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) and the Thai Ministry of Education (ONESQA) and we are also a Candidate School for CfBT ISQM (International School Quality Mark). We are affiliated to the International Schools Association of Thailand (ISAT).
Garden International School, Bangkok is a coeducational school of around 260 students, with classes from Early Years to Year 11, with our first Year 12 A-Level class opening in August 2016. The school has a wonderful sense of community and class sizes are generally small, with the students well behaved, engaged in their learning and supported by their families.
Bangkok is a vibrant and modern capital city, which has all the international standard amenities you would expect to find, but it also retains wonderful historical districts that allow residents of Bangkok to immerse themselves in Thailand’s history. Thailand is an exciting country with rich cultural experiences, it is a beautiful part of the world with year round sun and is a safe place to work overseas. The cost of living is very reasonable and teachers tend to avail themselves of high quality holiday experiences around the region.
Due to growth in our Foundation School, we are searching for suitably qualified teachers of students aged 2-6 (UK system EYFS and Y1).
Appointed teachers from the United Kingdom are to provide, at their own cost (at about GBP 60), an International Child Protection Certificate (UK) before travel arrangements are confirmed (refer: http://www.acro.police.uk/ICPC/). Full police clearance, covering at least the previous 10 years, is necessary for all appointees who are working, or who have worked, in countries outside the United Kingdom. To assist newly appointed staff, there is a country by country check list for the procedures for obtaining a police clearance: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/criminal-records-checks-for-overseas-applicants
