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. Book a tour or virtual visit. The school offers in-person or tailored virtual tours to help families understand the school community firsthand.
2. Submit the application form with required documents. You’ll be asked to provide passport/birth certificate copies, photographs, two years of school reports (translated), visas (if applicable), and any specialist assessments.
3. Complete entrance assessment. Students take an age-appropriate assessment in subjects like English and Maths; younger children may participate in informal classroom activities. This helps determine support needs (e.g. EAL).
4. Receive and accept your offer. A written offer is usually sent within 72 hours. You then pay the non-refundable application fee and enrolment fee (or capital levy) within two weeks to secure the place.
5. Transition to school. Before term begins, your child will be invited for a transition day to visit the campus, meet teachers, and get familiar with their class environment.
The school does not publicly disclose a formal waitlist or pool system.
St Andrews Primary School, established in 1997 for children aged 2 to 11, follows the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and the English National Curriculum through Key Stages 1 and 2. The school provides a warm, purpose-built environment where children can grow, explore, and thrive through play-based, personalised learning. Located on Sukhumvit 71 (Soi Pridi Banomyong) in Bangkok’s Watthana District, the Primary School is a 10-minute drive from Ekkamai and Phra Khanong BTS stations, with a shuttle service from the High School campus and Ekkamai BTS Station (connect via Gateway Ekkamai mall). Class sizes average around 18 in the Early Years and 23 in Years 1–6, supported by teaching assistants at ratios of 1:6 to 1:9. Approximately 1,100 students are enrolled at the Primary School. Teaching is delivered in English, with Thai language lessons and native-language support offered in German, French, Japanese, Korean, and Mandarin, plus elective Modern Foreign Languages such as Spanish. From the Early Years, students explore musical instruments as part of the curriculum. In Year 5, they join the instrumental programme and choose an instrument for a dedicated weekly lesson. As part of Nord Anglia Education, St Andrews benefits from collaborations with UNICEF, MIT, and The Juilliard School, enriching learning with creative, real-world experiences and fostering curiosity, critical thinking, and global citizenship.
