The school provides an Early Years/Early Childhood programme through Primary and up to Secondary (Nursery / Early Years to Grade 12). APIS follows international curricula including Cambridge programmes (IGCSE) and offers upper‑secondary qualifications.

American Pacific International School (Phnom Penh) runs Early Years, Primary and Secondary programmes delivered within the Cambridge International framework and is described as a Cambridge-accredited institution. Early Years is play-based (preschool from about age 3) and the Primary programme (Grades 1–6) covers core subjects such as English, mathematics, science and social studies alongside arts, PE and language support. Lower and upper Secondary prepare students for Cambridge IGCSE examinations, and the school advertises post‑16 teaching posts and reports Grade 12 diploma outcomes consistent with A‑level/post‑16 qualifications. APIS also publishes English‑language support/immersion options, extracurricular programmes and on‑site facilities (labs, sports, arts), and operates a special‑needs preschool provision.

APIS describes its approach to learning as holistic and emphasises character development, teamwork and community themes in its programmes (for example, summer-school weeks include ‘Life Skills & Community' and school articles note a focus on character). The school reports regular parent–teacher meetings intended to build home–school partnership and discuss students' academic and social progress. APIS publicity and news items therefore show SEL is embedded in broader curriculum and event planning, but the school does not publish a detailed SEL curriculum or a named SEL team on its public pages.

The school does not publicly disclose information regarding SEN provisions.

APIS operates an English-medium programme and its summer offerings include explicit English-language reinforcement, indicating English-language learning is part of the curriculum.

Public materials for APIS emphasise holistic education, parent–teacher engagement and life-skills activities that support students' social and emotional development (for example, school events, exhibitions and programme themes reference wellbeing and community).

The school does not publicly disclose a detailed safeguarding or child-protection policy.

Complete the application form (online or paper). Prepare the required documents, typically including the child’s birth certificate or passport, parents’ ID, recent school reports (for KG1 and above), immunisation records, passport photos, and proof of address.
