About Us:

TSIS (Thai Sikh International School) has been educating students since 1985. During the past 35 years, the school has developed two exceptional campuses with facilities that compare to some of the finest schools in Thailand and abroad to educate students aged 2 to 18 years.

Since August 2017, we have been managed by International School Services, which is associated with over 350 schools in 70 countries. Despite incredible growth, we remain a friendly, progressive school that aims to develop critical and creative thinkers who drive their own learning.

TSIS Junior School is centrally located in Wongwianyai district of Bangkok. The junior campus opened in January 2005 after years of carefully planning an environment that is ideal for children aged 2-11 years to grow and learn together. It is equipped with academic, sporting, and other extracurricular facilities that 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 from Nursery – Year s.

The majority of TSIS students were historically of Indian descent. With 18 nationalities now in our school, TSIS is becoming a truly international school as we welcome students and teachers of all nationalities, races, and religions.
