International School Eastern Seaboard (ISE) was one of the first schools to open in the rapidly growing Eastern Seaboard region and meet the demand for quality international education. Modelled on an American school, ISE delivers an inquiry-based, college-prep academic programme from pre-K through to Grade 12; the majority of the teachers here are from the US. The curriculum covers the core subjects, social studies, history, foreign languages, PE, and the arts. In addition to studying for their ISE Diploma, ISE students can choose to enrol in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme.
Founded in 1994, the school is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC). ISE has just over 300 students, with a high proportion of students coming from Thailand, Japan, Korea, and the US, and the majority of students study English as a second language.
Learning at ISE focuses on the school's four Expected School Learning Results (ESLRS) for students to be Self-Directed Thinkers, Empowered Lifelong Learners, Effective Communicators, and Responsible Global Citizens. Students in Grades 1 – 10 are assessed in English, maths, and reading using Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) tests, which are standard in the US.
Based on the school's latest IBDP results, which date back to 2015, the average IBDP score is 30, which only matches the global average; for a school that charges some of the highest tuition fees in Thailand, parents may be looking for a stronger academic performance.
