Lighthouse International School Phuket’s secondary campus, opened in August 2024 in Rawai, offers education for Grades 7–12 (ages 11–18). Students follow the Canadian Alberta curriculum, leading to both Alberta High School and Thai Ministry of Education diplomas, with the option of Cambridge International qualifications including IGCSEs and A‑Levels. The curriculum emphasizes project‑based and personalized learning, featuring mixed‑age classes and continuous assessment to support individual progress. Facilities include a dedicated science laboratory, an ICT room, a library, and indoor/outdoor dining areas serving Thai and Western cuisine. The campus incorporates a Montessori‑inspired approach to encourage creativity, inquiry, and collaborative projects in science, business, and arts subjects. Class sizes remain small to allow close teacher–student interaction and tailored support.
