When you search for a school for your children when you move to Bangkok, you have many options available. There are many different international schools in Bangkok, so whatever your requirements and preferences are, there is a suitable option if you look hard enough. Below are some of the vital considerations you have when choosing a school for your children that will ensure you make the correct choice, and they get an excellent education.
The Preferred Curriculum
|For the continuity of the education of your children, it is often best of you select a school that has the same curriculum as their previous school. Whether you prefer a Swiss, Australian, American, or a British international school, Bangkok has lots of options available. Decide on your preferred curriculum and then you can work out your available budget to help you find the perfect school.
How Much You Can afford To Spend On School Fees?
Educating children in Thailand is not cheap, so you will have to work out your budget before you start looking at schools. The more children you have, the more it will cost, but you can usually get a discount when sending more than one child to the same school. Work out how much you can afford to spend on their education, and keep in mind that the fees increase every year. Once you know the curriculum and your budget, you can then start looking at suitable schools.
The Location Of The School
Another vital factor to consider when looking at schools is the location, and you will want a school close to where you live or to the transport links such as the BTS and MRT systems. Travel in Bangkok can be hard work, and it seems like it is on big traffic jam, and choosing a school wisely, can significantly reduce the daily commute of your children.
The School Facilities
You will also want to pay attention to the facilities at each school and compare what they have to offer. Ideally, you will want to select a modern school with state-of-the-art facilities and technology, to give your children the best education. For example, if your children are keen athletes, you will want to ensure that their new school has everything they need to excel in their chosen sports. You will also want to choose a school with excellent computers and other technologies to ensure your children receive a well-rounded education that will prepare them for their lives.
