Harrow International School Bangkok
Harrow International School Bangkok is organised into two sections: Lower School, which comprises the Early Years Centre (from Little Lions to K2) and the Pre Prep (Infants and Juniors – Y1 to Y5) and the Upper School which incorporates the Preparatory School (Y6 to Y8), the Senior School (Y9 to Y11) and the Sixth Form (Y12 & Y13). Together they share our 35 acre Don Muang campus. The age range of children attending the School is from 18 months in the Little Lions Parent and Toddler Group to 18 years in Year 13, when students graduate from the School. Each section of the School has its own Head of School, who is supported by middle management teams, class teachers/tutors and specialist staff. He or she is responsible to the Head Master while retaining considerable autonomy. To ensure consistency and a gradual transition from the homeroom based approach of the Lower School to the subject specialisation of The Seniors, the Preparatory (Prep) School has been established, in a dedicated area on the campus. The curriculum, physical organization and facilities are appropriate to the needs of the pupils and allow for progression between each stage. The extensive facilities include Science and IT laboratories, Art, Music and Drama studios, a large sports hall, a 25 metre swimming pool, a fitness centre, six top quality flood lit tennis courts, extensive grass playing fields and an air-conditioned canteen.
