Pan-Asia is one of Thailand’s Best International Schools. We are a focal point for the surrounding neighborhoods, offering a place for community social events and learning opportunities.
Pan-Asia International School (PAIS), located in the Prawet district of Bangkok, was established in 2004 by the Social Welfare Society (SWS), a respected Thai non-profit organization. Founded with a vision to balance global education with Thai cultural values, PAIS was created in response to concerns about the growing influence of Western-centric education. Its mission is to offer an internationally recognized curriculum while preserving the richness of Eastern traditions.
Accredited by both the Thai Ministry of Education and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), and a proud member of the International Schools Association of Thailand (ISAT), PAIS serves students from ages 2 to 18. The school offers a U.S.-based curriculum along with the International Baccalaureate (IB) Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP), emphasizing academic excellence, global citizenship, and holistic development.
PAIS is known for its well-equipped facilities, including science laboratories, a modern auditorium, a Mac IT lab, sports courts, a swimming pool, and vibrant creative arts spaces. Its tranquil suburban campus provides a safe, green environment ideal for both academic focus and personal growth.
Guided by its motto, “Western Curriculum, Eastern Culture,” PAIS is more than just a place of learning—it is a diverse, inclusive community where students of all backgrounds are encouraged to think globally, act ethically, and grow with purpose. The school continues to fulfill its founding mission: to bridge global education with local identity, preparing students to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
The mission of PAIS is to provide its student with the best elements of Western education within an Eastern cultural environment through cooperation among students, parents, educators and the community.
The vision of Pan-Asia International School is to present its students with an opportunity to excel both academically and morally and to become responsible balanced future citizens of the global community.
Our educational philosophy aims at shaping the hearts and minds of our students by promoting a congenial school environment that instills in our students high morals, confidence and a pride in their identity. PAIS strives to present a new outlook in education by providing a nurturing, compassionate and loving environment.
