In Brief
Amnuay Silpa School is Thailand's leading bilingual international school, established in 1926 and approaching its centenary. With CIS accreditation and strong IGCSE/A-Level results, it offers a rare dual Thai-British curriculum pathway that appeals particularly to families wanting both international qualifications and Thai cultural connections.
ANS operates as a genuinely bilingual institution, delivering both Thai national curriculum (leading to O-NET exams) and British international curriculum (IGCSEs and A-Levels) from Nursery through Year 13. The school has earned recognition as Asia's first 'Thinking School' accredited by Exeter University and holds the distinction of being Thailand's only bilingual school with full FOBISIA membership. Recent academic results show 45% of IGCSE grades at A*-A level and 96% A-Level pass rates, with students regularly earning scholarships to top universities including University of Wisconsin-Madison and University of Toronto.
Located in Phayathai district, the school serves families who value its unique positioning between Thai and international education. The 'Thinking School' approach emphasizes critical thinking skills alongside traditional academics, while extensive enrichment programs include Model UN, Duke of Edinburgh Awards, competitive sports in FOBISIA tournaments, and the ANS Titans swim team. With nearly 100 years of history and alumni including six Thai prime ministers, the school maintains strong connections to Thai society while preparing students for global universities through its dual-pathway approach.
