From their very first day at Panyaden, our students will gradually build an increasingly deeper understanding of a core set of principles, based on four important areas of their development, also known within Buddhism as Bhavana:
As a result, our graduating students will be of strong character, have a solid understanding of what constitutes good moral conduct and appreciate the importance of building healthy relationships throughout their lives. For this to reach its full potential, we foster close relationships between our students, teachers, families and the wider community.
We embrace the Buddhist culture and values and use these as the basis to build a solid foundation on which our students can prosper and thrive. One of the key tools we use that helps students progress across all four areas of development is a set of skills and qualities known as the 12 Wise Habits. Opportunities to practice, develop and reflect upon all 12 Wise Habits is integrated into their daily life at the school.
We are driven to ensure Panyaden is considered one of the top academic schools, not only here in Thailand, but also around the world. To be able to do this it is imperative that the school works closely with all parents, which also help to establish a feeling of community, and belonging.

Thank you once again for doing your part to keep Edarabia the most trusted education source.
My child attends middle school here. It is amazing to see how many skills he and his peers have learnt over the last year. He has a full set of wonderful teachers who have each in their own way reached and taught my child. The principal is very involved on campus and always catches my eye for a greeting or has time for a small chat about my child. His interest in our child and the way he wants the best for him is encouraging and endearing.I am grateful for the good air system and that the food on campus is healthy.

My son is attending the kindergarten since almost a year now. He loves it, even on weekends he is asking me to go to "school". Apart from school stuff he also learned to be a good person. He likes to share and cares about others and the environment, he developed great empathy and curiosity to learn new stuff. The school offers vegetarian food option and you can also get a school bus arranged. His Thai got so much better as well and so did his English.

Panyaden has been a fantastic school for both our kids - with caring well-trained teachers and a beautiful, nurturing atmosphere, and a strong emphasis on caring for the environment. They are always looking to improve and innovate and I believe are quite strong academically, something that can't be said for all 'alternative' schools. Unique!

We moved to Thailand so our children could experience this amazing bi-lingual primary school. The environment and setting are lovely, the classrooms are amazing, and the teachers are not only gentle and understanding, but encourage a life-long love of learning. I highly recommend this school for parents & students wanting a better alternative to traditional education.

Great school and amazing environment. Our son went to PANYADEN for 6 years and he loved it. Very hard to move on to a different school after being in Panyaden for such a long time. Thanks for everything.
