Two purpose-built campuses
Bromsgrove is unique in its picturesque Thai setting offering two specialist campuses on the outskirts of Bangkok, both in close proximity to Suvarnabhumi International Airport:
- The Early Years Campus for children aged from 2 to 6 years, situated on the very accessible Ramkamhaeng 164 Road;
- The Windsor Park Campus for children aged from 6 to 18 years, situated in its own landscaped grounds, and adjacent to a 36 hole golf course, making us ‘home’ to some world-class junior golfers!
Curriculum
Following the best of British traditions, we offer an appropriate and challenging programme of study, based upon the National Curriculum for England, whilst incorporating the flexibility to effectively respond to global change. Our students ultimately take IGCSE, AS, A level examinations, and we also offer the BTEC qualification. These options open doors to universities worldwide.
House System, After-school activities and Pastoral Care
The robust academic programme is supported by a strong pastoral system, which nurtures and enables each student to achieve their maximum potential. In addition to the wide range of after-school activities, our House system encourages healthy competition between students at all levels.
Partnership between parents and school
Bromsgrove is a school where internationally-minded and culturally aware students are encouraged to pursue both academic excellence and personal development, thus enabling them to take a leading role in tomorrow’s ever-changing global community: Through the partnership of child, parent and school we can and will make a real difference.
Teacher selection and qualifications
At Bromsgrove, all our teachers are appropriately qualified with a degree and teaching qualification. Our teachers are mostly recruited from the UK with some from other native-English speaking countries like Australia, USA and Canada. We also have specialist teachers teaching Thai, Chinese and Korean all highly qualified to deliver the best education and opportunities to our students.
International Students and Class sizes
Our students consist of over 27 nationalities; 50% of which come from other countries in the region and the world. Class sizes at BIST are relatively small when compared to many other international schools in Bangkok.
