Our sports programme gives our students opportunities to learn, build skills and have fun new experiences outside of the normal classroom environment. At St. Andrews we aim to provide a very high standard of coaching and competition for our athletes as well as enable all our students to find something they can enjoy in the sports arena.
Sport at St. Andrews International School Bangkok is fun, challenging and competitive. Our Physical Education (PE) curriculum has been developed to suit the needs and interests of our students. We offer many of the sports that you will find in UK schools, as well as weekly swimming and fitness lessons.
