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.
Western International School (WIS) opened on September 1, 2003. It began with 262 students (kindergarten to Grade 11) and a single campus. By the 2019–2020 academic year the school reported nearly 7,561 students and a network of 16 campuses in Phnom Penh, Takhmao and Sihanoukville. Governance is shown on the school's profile through a Board of Directors and named leaders (for example H.E. Laurent Te is listed as Chairman/President), indicating a board-led private governance structure.
WIS's website describes an active, campus-based community with regular events such as school fairs, award ceremonies, kindergarten and high‑school graduations, prom night, sports and field trips, plus exchange and summer programmes. Seasonal and cultural events named on the site include Christmas and Halloween celebrations, and the homepage highlights campus-wide activities such as virus‑cleaning/outreach efforts. The site lists multiple campuses and contact details, and most community activities are presented as happening at campus level across that network.
The school's public website does not show a dedicated Parent Teacher Association (PTA) page or a formal PTA organisation listed; parental involvement is referenced more generally in the school's mission and partnership language. The profile and activities pages describe events where parents commonly participate—school fairs, graduations, field trips, outreach programmes and seasonal celebrations—suggesting opportunities for parent engagement even if a formal PTA is not detailed. For specific information about a formal PTA, parent committees, or volunteer groups the site recommends contacting the school; the site provides a general email (info@western.edu.kh) and phone numbers for each campus. I searched the school's main pages (profile, activities, contact, homepage) but did not find an explicit PTA page; if you want, I can contact the school or search other sources for up‑to‑date PTA details.
Western International School (WIS) opened on 1 September 2003 and operates multiple campuses across Phnom Penh, with additional branches in Takhmao and Sihanoukville. The school offers Pre‑K through Grade 12 programmes described on the website as aligned with Northern American standards; half‑day classes are taught in English, while full‑day classes use both English and Khmer. WIS lists a range of subjects from early years through secondary (including English, Khmer and Chinese language instruction), and runs summer and international exchange programmes (about 15 students go to the USA each year). The Contact and Profile pages list the headquarters (Stadium/Main Campus) address and the many campus addresses across the city. The school website publishes a School Fees page for the 2024–2025 year but the fee schedule is presented as images/PDFs on that page (amounts were not extractable as text from the website during this check).
