Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
1) International Baccalaureate (IB) — The Giving Tree International School is authorized by the International Baccalaureate Organisation to deliver the Primary Years Programme (IB‑PYP). This authorization means the school has met the IB's programme and school‑wide standards for delivering the PYP curriculum framework and is allowed to use the IB designation.
2) Approval by Cambodia's Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport — the school's website states the Ministry inspected and approved the school to re‑open on 21 September 2020. Ministry inspection and approval indicates the school met applicable national requirements (including health and safety protocols referenced on the site).
No other formal accreditations or external quality‑assurance qualifications are listed on the school's public website.
The school website does not list any awards that have been awarded to the school in the past five years. I reviewed the school's Newsletters and Events pages (where school‑level announcements would typically appear) and found no entries showing awards presented to the school itself. If you'd like, I can search beyond the school website for awards reported elsewhere.
The Giving Tree International School (TGTIS) in Phnom Penh began as a nursery in 2008 and now offers Early Years and Primary education. The school is fully authorised to deliver the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) and provides part- and full-time options from accompanied Baby Playgroups (12 months+) up to Primary 6. Specialist lessons listed on the school site include Art, Music, Swimming, Makerspace, ICT, STEM, Physical Education and Languages; the site also shows named specialist teachers for French and Chinese. The school publishes an annual fee schedule (USD) and an enrolment packet with age/grade guides and policies. TGTIS describes itself as serving Khmer and international learners in the BKK1 area of central Phnom Penh and notes plans to introduce the Middle Years Programme (MYP) from August 2026.
