Messages from Dr Arthit Institution Leaders

If you were to ask a British International School, Phuket parent what they love about our school they would most likely tell you that BISP offers what few others can – space to grow and to thrive in an environment that places learning, wellbeing and the pursuit of passion at its very core. They will say their children have opportunities to follow their interests and passions and are able to succeed academically at all levels. Most importantly, they will tell you that their children are happy and that they love coming to school each and every day.

Our mission to Inspire Learning, Nurture Wellbeing and Ignite Passion is evident as you walk around our campus and observe our school community. We have high expectations of our students and of our teachers, coaches and dedicated team of boarding houseparents who are enthusiastic about their subjects and committed to student wellbeing.

Our 44-acre campus is comprised of quality educational facilities and large, green recreational spaces for our community of over 60 different nationalities. Students have access to internationally recognised learning and examinations and our graduates pursue a diverse number of university destinations, careers and interests. They progress to universities in countries on every continent, as well as to professional sports clubs and careers around the world.

Ultimately, we want our students to find their passion at BISP, and to be able to follow these passions upon graduation.

Many of our families are attracted by the world class learning opportunities and the lifestyle afforded in our tropical island location.

Welcome to ‘Education in Paradise’.

We know that children have an array of differing needs, both educational and emotional, but they also have an exciting assortment of dreams, hopes and aspirations. The success and happiness of your child is what drives me and every staff member at SBS and SIBS to be 100% committed.

At SBS and SIBS we strive for academic excellence in a well-disciplined, friendly and supportive community. We believe that if children feel happy and secure they will flourish and grow as individuals.

When you walk through our corridors, I am certain that you will see and feel that sense of delight, diligence and wonder on the faces of our children. Our students enjoy their education and have positive attitudes to learning. They are confident, friendly, happy, well-motivated and lively in their outlook and in their approach to all that they do. They also display a strong sense of pride in their school, from the very youngest in Foundation Stage to the senior students in the growing secondary section of the schools.

At SBS and SIBS, we understand that education is about guiding and supporting young people on a pathway of success. My staff and I are confident that each child in our care will unlock and realise their potential and indeed, aspire beyond it with our support. We also recognise that education is a shared responsibility between family and school and we truly value the partnership that we forge with our parents. Choosing a school is one of the most important decisions a family can make for their loved ones.

Our International Bilingual approach to Modern Education will open both International and National doors for our beloved child/children, offering them a wide range of opportunities to lead 21st century education.
