International School Eastern Seaboard
About ISE
Over 30 years of academic excellence on the Eastern Seaboard
Founded in 1994 and located on the Burapha Golf Course, ISE is the only American curriculum school on Thailand's Eastern Seaboard — and the first in the region to offer the full International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. It's accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC).
A small, genuinely personal learning community
With around 140 students representing more than 20 nationalities, ISE offers personalised learning in small class sizes — the kind of school where a student is known by name, not a number. Nearly all students are bilingual, and many pick up a third language during their time there.
A genuinely multilingual campus
Alongside English, ISE offers classes in Korean, Japanese, Chinese and Spanish — an unusually broad language offering for a school of its size, reflecting its diverse, multinational community and its focus on producing confident, globally-minded graduates.
Learning through adventure and exploration
ISE's own mission centres on cultivating higher-level thinking skills, effective communication and global responsibility within a caring, supportive community — building foundations for both academic and personal achievement, not just exam results.
Placement support from British Learning Centre
As one of our partner schools, we can guide your family through the entire ISE admissions process — from an initial consultation and entrance assessment preparation, through to arranging a school tour.
