Whether you’re looking for an active, outdoor lifestyle or laid-back weekends on the beach, our location offers a rich cultural and social experience.

About the International School of Samui
ISS is a Traditional British School with British Heritage and is located on a beautiful tropical Island with fresh air, space, and tranquility; it is an idyllic location to live, work and bring up children. The school is set on a hillside in the Bophut region of Koh Samui, with outstanding facilities including an organic farm.
ISS is a non-selective school and offers an education to students aged 3 to 18 years (Nursery to Year 13) and operates waiting lists due to its commitment to being a one form, year group entry school to enable a small community school where all students and parents would be known and where quality was regarded as a key focus rather than continual growth in enrolment. The school is made up of three distinct departments of early years, primary and senior.
Our overall vision for the school is to be the premium international school of choice on Koh Samui. Our mission is to provide our students with a premium level of academic, co-curricular and pastoral provision, supported by an ethos that promotes and rewards integrity, hard work, and positive habits to give every student the opportunity to be ‘the best they can be’.
The most important, overriding thread, throughout all our policies and practice is to give every student, no matter what their starting point, the opportunity to be the best they can be. We believe that through our inclusive, personalised approach to every student, as well as our outstanding learning support and SEMH provision, we fulfill this outstandingly well.
The school follows the ubiquitous ‘British’ Curriculum and offers the Cambridge Primary, Secondary, IGCSE and A-Level programs of study with a rich mix of creativity thrown in. The school is blessed with wonderful, motivated and energetic teachers and staff who have made the school what it is today - the premier International School on Koh Samui.
