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. Schedule a visit or open house. The school suggests touring the campus or attending an Open House, which includes an admissions meeting and typically lasts about an hour.
2. Submit the online application. Use their OpenApply system to complete the application form and upload required documents (e.g. health and immunization forms, bus and clubs forms).
3. Attend an introduction meeting/interview. You and your child will meet with the Head of School for a personal discussion and to address questions.
4. Admission decision and placement. The school will inform you about placement availability and send a confirmation of placement once a spot is offered.
5. Pay the registration fee. Families accepting a place must pay the non-refundable registration fee to secure enrollment. Applications are accepted year-round, with age cut‑offs based on September 1.

Magic Years International School (MYIS) in Pakkret, Nonthaburi, welcomes children aged 1 to 16 and follows the IB PYP (Primary Years Programme) and is pursuing IB MYP candidacy beginning with Grade 10 from August 2024, expanding through Grade 12 by 2026. On a 1.5‑acre campus just outside the Nichada Thani expat community, the school features an outdoor farm with goats, chickens, fish and turtles, where students tend plants and animals daily. A gymnasium, sports field, and salt‑water pool, alongside a Design Technology / STEM lab, Visual Arts studio, music room, library, and playgrounds, support practical and active learning. Inquiry is core to learning: even the youngest children begin to learn through inquiry, guided by a curriculum enhanced by PYP philosophy. A signature program is the farm‑based outdoor learning initiative: daily student engagement in gardening and animal care that connects classroom concepts to real‑world ecology and responsibility. Class sizes are small, with a 1:5 teacher‑student ratio across divisions.
