FAQs

SEN at international schools — your questions

How many international schools in Thailand support special educational needs (SEN)?+

123 international schools in Thailand offer learning or behaviour support above a basic level: 123 provide learning support and 32 provide behaviour support, with 0 offering specialist-level provision in at least one area.

What's the difference between learning support and behaviour support?+

Learning support covers day-to-day academic help for children with additional learning needs — think dyslexia, dyscalculia or a learning-support unit. Behaviour support covers social, emotional and behavioural needs, including pastoral and specialist staff. doris rates each separately because a school can be strong on one and light on the other.

What do the support levels mean?+

doris uses a five-point scale. 'Basic' means light in-class differentiation; 'Moderate' means a dedicated learning-support offer; 'Advanced' means specialist staff and structured programmes; 'Specialist' means substantial, often standalone provision. Schools rated 'None' don't appear on this page.

Does a higher SEN rating mean a better school for my child?+

Not on its own. The right school depends on your child's specific needs, the fit with staff, class sizes and the exact provision on offer. Use this page to build a shortlist, then talk to each school's SEN coordinator (SENCO) before deciding. doris is impartial and takes no placement fees.
