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. Apply
To begin the process, parents must complete and submit the school's online application form. This submission must include specific supporting documents, such as a passport, Thai ID, or birth certificate. Additionally, parents need to provide a recent photo and, if applicable, the child's previous school report to ensure the application is ready for review.
2. Assessment
Once the application is received, the Admissions team will contact parents to schedule an assessment for the child. This assessment is tailored to the child's age and will last anywhere between 30 minutes and two hours. This stage also includes an interview for the parents, as the school uses this time to ensure families understand and support their educational values.
3. Offer
If the assessment is successful, the school will send a formal offer of a place within seven days of the assessment date. To secure the child's seat, parents are required to sign a letter of acceptance alongside the school's terms and conditions. Finally, the admissions process is completed by paying the required enrolment fee.

Opening in August 2026, Highgate International School Thailand brings nearly 460 years of British educational heritage to Chonburi province. Operating in partnership with Siam Motors Group, the campus will initially welcome Pre-Prep and Junior students. Following a phased expansion, the school plans its Senior School and boarding options for entry in August 2027, providing education for students aged 2 to 18. Students follow the English National Curriculum, progressing to IGCSE and A Level qualifications. The 27-acre campus features an Olympic-sized swimming pool, a FIFA-standard football pitch, a Golf Academy, a black-box theatre, and a dedicated STEM building. A unique feature is the Highgate Visitor Centre, which allows founding families to engage with school leadership and curriculum planning before the campus is officially completed. Additionally, the institution mirrors its London counterpart's three-school structure—Pre-Prep, Junior, and Senior School—ensuring age-appropriate pastoral care alongside community service and performing arts programs.
