About international schools in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand

Nakhon Ratchasima (Korat) is served by a small, local group of international schools that mainly cater to expatriate and internationally-minded Thai families rather than the large market you find in Bangkok. Schools in the province most commonly offer English-medium programmes drawn from the Cambridge (IGCSE/A-level), American and Singapore curricula, and a smaller number advertise IB or IB-candidate programmes; Thai language and culture are typically taught alongside English instruction. Published annual tuition varies by school and by age, with some schools publishing base tuition around the low-hundreds of thousands of baht and others - especially those with full secondary programmes - showing higher annual charges; first-year invoices often include one-off registration, development or deposit items that make the initial year noticeably more expensive. Most international schools in Thailand follow a Northern-Hemisphere academic rhythm (termly or semester calendars) with the main intake in mid-August and the possibility of mid-year entry points for available places.

FAQs for Thailand

What curricula will my child find in Nakhon Ratchasima international schools?
You will commonly find Cambridge (IGCSE and A-level), American and Singapore curriculum pathways, and a smaller number of schools that are authorised or working towards IB programmes. Each school publishes its own curriculum offer, so check the school’s curriculum page to confirm which programmes are delivered at each grade level.
How much does attendance typically cost and why can the first year be more expensive?
Published annual tuition at Korat schools can start in the low hundreds of thousands of Thai baht for younger years and rise for older year groups; some schools publish example first-year totals that are substantially higher because they include one-off registration, development or deposit fees. Always ask a school for a full breakdown (tuition, enrolment fee, deposits, insurance, bus and meals) and for sample invoices for the year your child would start.
When should we apply and when do schools usually start the academic year?
Most international schools in Thailand follow a Northern-Hemisphere calendar with the main intake in mid-August and the school year running through to May or June; many schools also accept mid-year entries where space is available, commonly in January. Start your enquiries at least three to six months before your intended move to allow time for assessments, paperwork and visa-related documents.
What ages and year groups do local international schools cover?
Provision in Nakhon Ratchasima varies: some schools cover early years through lower secondary, while others extend to upper secondary and offer external examinations such as IGCSEs or A-levels. If continuity to university-entry years is important, confirm whether the school runs through Grade 12 (or equivalent) or whether a later transfer will be necessary.
What should relocating families check when visiting a school in Korat?
Prioritise accreditation and inspection reports, the school’s published curriculum and examination pathway, safeguarding and child-protection policies, language provision (English and Thai), class sizes, and support for additional learning needs; also confirm practical matters such as transport routes, extra costs and staff turnover. Ask for recent references from current parents and for a sample term-time calendar so you can see how the school’s rhythm will fit your family’s plans.
