About international schools in Chonburi, Thailand

Chonburi province (including Pattaya, Sriracha and Laem Chabang) is home to a diverse group of international schools that serve both expatriate families and local Thai households connected to the Eastern Seaboard’s residential and industrial communities. English is the dominant language of instruction and schools commonly offer British (Cambridge/IGCSE/A-Level), American (US curriculum/AP) and International Baccalaureate pathways, alongside bilingual Thai - English and some language-specific options such as Chinese or French. Annual tuition in the area typically sits in Thailand’s mid-range international-school market - many day schools charge in the mid-hundreds of thousands of baht, while premium or boarding options can be substantially higher, and families should also allow for one-off registration fees, deposits, transport and extracurricular costs. Admissions usually follow a northern-hemisphere academic calendar (schools generally start around August), though many schools accept rolling enrolment for places that become available; non-Thai families should begin conversations early so schools can issue the paperwork needed for education/dependent visas.

FAQs for Thailand

What curricula will my child likely find in Chonburi international schools?
The common programmes are British (Cambridge/IGCSE and A-Level), American (US curriculum with Advanced Placement options) and the International Baccalaureate (IB), with several schools offering bilingual Thai - English streams and extra language classes such as Chinese or French. The mix reflects local demand from expatriate communities and families on the Eastern Seaboard, so you will usually be able to choose a track that leads to UK, US, Australian or international university pathways.
How much should we expect to pay for international school tuition in Chonburi?
Tuition in Chonburi generally sits in Thailand’s mid-range international-school market: many schools charge in the mid-hundreds of thousands of baht per year, while premium or boarding schools cost more. In addition to annual fees, budget for one-off registration or development fees, deposits and extras such as buses, uniforms, meals, English-as-an-additional-language support and external exam charges.
When should we apply and how do admissions usually work?
Most international schools in the region follow a northern-hemisphere academic year with a main intake around August, but many operate rolling admissions and will enrol students mid-year if places are available. Because non-Thai families typically need an appropriate visa, start the admissions process early so the school can provide the acceptance documentation required for education or dependent visas and you have time for any entry assessments and enrolment payments.
Is instruction only in English and what about Thai language classes?
Instruction is predominantly in English at international schools, but Thai language and culture classes are commonly offered and in many cases required for Thai nationals to meet national regulations. Many schools also provide English-language support (EAL/EALD) for students joining with limited English and run additional modern language electives such as Chinese or French.
What should a relocating family look for when comparing schools in Chonburi?
Look at curriculum alignment with your family’s long-term plans, the school’s assessment and university-placement routes, language-support provision and the ratio of expatriate to local students to judge fit; also inspect pastoral care, transport options and extra costs beyond headline tuition. Practical checks include accreditation or recognised curricula, sample timetables and reports, recent inspection or accreditation records, and clear information on visa support and enrolment fees.
