Pan‑Asia International School (PAIS) was established in 2004 by the Thai non-profit Social Welfare Society. The school was founded with the goal of promoting internationally-minded education within Thailand. It remains privately managed and operates under a licensed international school framework authorized by Thailand’s Ministry of Education. Since its founding, PAIS has expanded its academic offerings to include globally recognized programs and developed a diverse student body.
The school hosts a range of cultural and community events throughout the year, including Thai cultural days, International Day, and Ramadan celebrations. These activities involve both students and staff and reflect the multicultural makeup of the school. Community gatherings often include performances, food sharing, and opportunities for parents to engage with the school environment.
The school’s Parent and Faculty Community (PFC) serves as the primary parent engagement body at PAIS. It organizes events such as the PFC Eid Celebration, family trips, and contributes support to school health and safety initiatives. The PFC also takes part in arranging cultural celebrations and facilitates connections between new and returning families.
Pan‑Asia International School (PAIS), founded in 2004, serves students aged 2–18 in Bangkok’s Prawet district.

The campus is located in a suburban green zone about 200 m off a major road, and includes science and IT labs, an auditorium, swimming pools, and sports fields. Languages taught include English, Thai, Chinese, and Arabic. After‑school clubs offer sports, music, arts & crafts, mental maths, and homework support. A signature feature is the use of international standards: Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards, alongside the IB framework, supported by facilities like a Mac lab and makerspace. Accredited by WASC and Thailand’s Ministry of Education, PAIS hosts around 470 students representing over 40 nationalities.
