Welcome to Prem Tinsulanonda International School, or simply Prem, as it is most widely known. If you are looking for a stimulating, engaging environment where your children will flourish daily, find their passions, and fulfil their potential, then you have found the right place.

All students at Prem follow the academically rigorous IB programme; Typical of its innovative spirit, Prem was the first school in South East Asia to offer all four IB programmes – PYP, MYP, DP and CP, and continues to be the only school to do so in Thailand. The IB facilitates an approach to learning which has enquiry, critical-thinking and problem-solving at its heart; it also requires students to bring their heart to class. Curriculum content presents real-world global issues and students continually engage with subject matter that requires intercultural understanding.

Students at Prem are similarly challenged and engaged by the amazing co-curricular programme here. ‘Exploria’ does as the name suggests: allows students to explore a rich range of offerings from over 101 sports and activities. Most of these take place on the beautiful 100-acre campus, complete with its own farm, Forest School, Cookery School, Olympic-sized swimming pool, golf-driving range and even an ICC-approved cricket-pitch. Prem offers the most stimulating of learning environments – and one which is most appreciated by our 150 plus boarders who are proud to call Prem their home.

We invite you to come and visit us and see for yourself this unique learning center – Prem is an exceptionally special school and one that offers the very best in personalized learning, individual support and pathways that allow students to succeed at the very highest levels.

Our dedicated teaching staff at Prem are highly qualified and diverse, coming from fifteen different countries. Our language of instruction is English and all of our teachers, other than our foreign language specialists, are native-language English speakers. Prem is more than an international boarding school. We are a part of the vibrant community that forms the Traidhos Three-Generation Community for Learning. Every year many people of all ages benefit from the myriad opportunities to engage in meaningful learning.

At Prem, students from all over the world receive a meaningful education providing the competencies for increasing cross-cultural interdependence. Whether in our well equipped classrooms with our excellent teaching staff, or during exciting outdoor learning, or our wide range of service projects, or on adventurous local or international field trips, and whether a day student or boarder, Prem students feel their school is the best in the world!

We believe in developing the whole child, and offer learning opportunities to discover new understandings, skills and interests to ignite a passion for learning. Prem is an outstanding IB International School which balances the striving for academic excellence with the desire to form well rounded, happy, self assured and proactive young people whose integrity champions a just and more peaceful world.

Prem offers families a unique and vibrant community offering a world-class international education within a caring and safe environment, all on, what we think, is the most beautiful school campus in the world. Our amazingly active and involved parent body, our local community, and our goal of working towards a sustainable future inspired by meaningful relationships, continuous learning and good thinking make us proud to be Prem.

All schools have their pros & cons. One of Prem’s many pros is its staff; creative, caring, motivated and talented. Having just received a video of my daughter doing what she loves best & makes her happy and confident - I'm a happy parent. Thank you!
