The Panyaden Secondary Scholarship Programme offers scholarships of up to 100% tuition for high-achieving students entering Years 7 to 11 or the IB Diploma. It also includes additional waivers (e.g., 30%) for early applicants supported by the Erber Family Foundation. These opportunities are selective and typically announced once a year.
Panyaden International School, located just south of Chiang Mai in Hang Dong district, is a bilingual day school serving children aged 2 to 18. Established in May 2011. From Years 1–6, students follow the British‑aligned International Primary Curriculum alongside Thai culture and language instruction. Years 7–9 engage with the International Middle Years Curriculum (IMYC), which prepares them for the IB Diploma Programme in Years 12–13. The school community includes around 405 students representing more than 30 nationalities, taught by bilingual Thai and English‑speaking teachers. The curriculum emphasises values such as respect, responsibility, and environmental mindfulness, drawn from Buddhist principles. A notable feature is the combination of service and sustainability projects integrated across stages. The IB Diploma is offered by authorised faculty, and the school’s green campus environment and values-based approach are foundational and unique.
