Diverse courses, in line with international education

The curriculum system of Chiang Mai International School is rich and diverse, fully meeting the development needs of different students.

 International School of Chiang Mai (ISCM for short), as one of the long-established international schools in Chiang Mai, adopts the American 

curriculum system and provides a complete education from kindergarten to high school. In the primary school stage, emphasis is placed on 

cultivating students' basic qualities and exploration abilities. Through rich project-based learning, students' curiosity about the world is stimulated. 

The curriculum in the middle school stage gradually becomes specialized, covering multiple fields such as mathematics, science, humanities, and art. 

At the same time, AP courses are offered to lay a solid foundation for students to strive for admission to world-renowned universities.

Another highly anticipated School, Prem Tinsulanonda International School, adopts the IB curriculum system and aims to cultivate 

inquirers with an international perspective. The Primary Years Programme (PYP) guides students to establish interdisciplinary knowledge 

connections through transdisciplinary thematic exploration. The Secondary School Program (MYP) emphasizes the integration of disciplines 

and the cultivation of practical abilities. The University Foundation Programme (DP) helps students achieve outstanding academic results with 

its rigorous academic standards. The school also attaches great importance to cultivating students' sense of social responsibility. Through activities 

such as community service, it enables students to grow into responsible global citizens in practice.


High-quality teaching staff, safeguarding the path of growth

The teaching staff of Chiang Mai International School is an important guarantee of its educational quality. Most schools' teaching 

teams are composed of teachers from English-speaking countries such as Europe and America. They not only possess solid professional 

knowledge but also have rich international education experience. At Northern Thailand International School (NTIS for short), the average 

teaching experience of teachers exceeds 10 years, and many of them hold master's degrees or above. These teachers are good at applying 

diverse teaching methods, formulating personalized teaching plans based on the learning styles and characteristics of different students, 

and stimulating students' learning potential. Meanwhile, the school will also regularly organize teacher training and exchange activities to 

ensure that teachers can keep up with the latest international educational concepts and provide students with the best educational services.


The distinctive campus integrates nature and education

The natural environment of Chiang Mai endows the international school with a unique campus landscape. Many schools cover vast areas and 

are shaded by green trees, complementing the surrounding green mountains and clear waters. Montessori International School of Chiang Mai

 is located in the suburbs of Chiang Mai. The campus has large gardens, orchards and outdoor activity areas. In their spare time from study,

 students can go into nature, observe the growth of plants, and participate in agricultural activities. In the process of getting close to nature, 

they can cultivate their observational skills and hands-on abilities. In addition, the architectural design of the school is also ingenious, 

combining traditional Thai style with modern educational concepts to create a comfortable and open learning space, allowing students to study and grow in an environment rich in cultural atmosphere.


A colorful life promotes all-round development

Chiang Mai International School attaches great importance to the all-round development of students and offers a rich variety of extracurricular activities. 

Chiang Mai Baan Dek International School offers a variety of club activities such as football, basketball, badminton, dance, painting and music. 

Students can freely choose according to their own interests and hobbies and develop their specialties in their spare time. Meanwhile, 

the school often organizes outdoor expansion activities, such as hiking, camping, and visiting cultural relics, allowing students to step out 

of the campus and exercise their willpower and broaden their horizons in practice. For instance, the school will organize students to visit the 

mountainous areas around Chiang Mai to experience the life of local ethnic minorities, understand different cultural customs, and cultivate students' cultural inclusiveness and social interaction skills.

Chiang Mai's international schools, with their diverse curriculum systems, high-quality teaching staff, distinctive campus environments 

and rich extracurricular activities, have created a high-quality educational platform for students' all-round development. Here, students from 

diverse cultural backgrounds gather together to study, explore and grow, writing their own brilliant chapters in this educational oasis in the northern valley of Thailand.
