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.
