*******************

TSIS (Thai Sikh International School) Junior School is centrally located in Wongwianyai district of Bangkok. The school opened in January 2005 after years of carefully planning an environment that is ideal for children aged 3-11 years to grow and learn together.

The Junior Campus is equipped with academic, sporting and other extracurricular facilities which outshine many other international schools in the area. In addition to spacious classrooms, facilities incorporated in the design of the four-story building include an assembly hall, air-conditioned gymnasium, libraries and dining hall. First-time visitors to the school are impressed by its beautiful, grassed playground and swimming pools. 

The Junior School provides the first three Key Stages of the UK National Curriculum for children in Nursery – Year 5 classes.

The majority of TSIS students were historically been of Indian descent. However, when handing over management of the school to ISS, the school board emphasised that they would like to see their school’s exceptional facilities shared with others. TSIS is now becoming a true international school. Our population now includes 16 nationalities, as we welcome students and teachers of all races and religions.
