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.
