Concordian International School

Concordian International School is located at Km 7 on Bangna–Trad Highway, in the Bangkaew area of Samut Prakan province. It sits just east of central Bangkok, with road access to major expressways and nearby residential neighborhoods. The area is well-connected by private transportation and within commuting distance for families living in Bangkok’s eastern suburbs.

The school is structured into three main divisions: Early Years (Pre‑K to Kindergarten 3), Primary Years (Grades 1–5), and Secondary Years, which includes both the IB Middle Years Programme (Grades 6–10) and the IB Diploma Programme (Grades 11–12).

Concordian International School is a co-educational international day school which also operates a Residency Boarding Program for male students in Grades 8–12 who require weekday or full boarding on a semester basis.

Concordian offers structured learning support for students with additional academic needs. This includes in-school support in two subjects and an optional extended support program, subject to diagnostic assessment by Concordian’s recommended testing providers.

The school is not affiliated with any specific country.

The school does not have any religious affiliation.

School hours vary slightly by division. Early Years classes begin at 8:05 a.m. and finish at 2:55 p.m., while Primary and Secondary Years begin between 7:35–7:50 a.m. and end by 3:10–3:20 p.m. After-school activities for K1 to G12 typically run from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m., depending on year group.

The school does not publicly disclose any information regarding a school bus or transportation service.

Concordian delivers the full suite of IB programs from Nursery through Grade 12: PYP (Pre‑K to Grade 5), MYP (Grades 6–10), and DP (Grades 11–12). In the Early Years and Primary levels (Pre‑K to Grade 4), students engage in an English–Chinese immersion program, gradually shifting in Grade 5 to instruction mainly in English, with Chinese and Thai studied as additional languages. The PYP follows a transdisciplinary, inquiry‑based framework focused on conceptual learning across multiple subjects. The MYP supports interdisciplinary learning through traditional subjects, encouraging communication, reflection, and intercultural awareness for students aged 11–16. The DP emphasizes academic depth and includes Theory of Knowledge (TOK), the Extended Essay, and CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service) as core elements, preparing students for university-level study.

Concordian’s Counselling Department provides SEL support through individual and group counselling tailored to students’ personal, emotional, and social development. Counsellors also lead classroom guidance lessons on topics like self-concept, conflict resolution, study skills, decision-making, peer pressure, bullying prevention, and cultural awareness. They collaborate with teachers, administrators, and parents to meet student needs and may refer families to community professionals when necessary.

The school’s counselling team can identify students who may need additional support and help arrange appropriate interventions in consultation with teachers and staff. However, Concordian does not publicly disclose information about specific types of SEN supported or whether they have specialist provision.

Concordian offers additional support in English, Chinese, and Thai to assist with language development across grade levels. However, the school does not explicitly describe any EAL-specific program, staffing, or instructional model dedicated to students for whom English is an additional language.

Counselors at Concordian provide students with support for emotional wellbeing through one-on-one and group counseling sessions. They help students manage concerns that may interfere with their personal development or learning. In cases requiring further care, the school may recommend referrals to external mental health professionals.

Concordian International School outlines clear child protection principles and safeguarding standards. Staff are required to maintain professional boundaries, report incidents of concern, and never exploit the adult-student power dynamic. The policy stresses the importance of respectful, caring relationships, prohibits the use of physical punishment or degrading treatment, and bans the use of school equipment for inappropriate content. Faculty must also ensure that any physical or digital interaction with students is appropriate, documented, and professionally justified. Safeguarding standards are grounded in maintaining student welfare and preventing abuse or neglect at all times.
