Will Ai make kids smarter, or make it easier to cheat?

At St Andrews International School Bangkok, our priority has always been the wellbeing and happiness of our students. A key factor in ensuring children are happy is building strong relationships with parents. This begins from the earliest visits to our Primary School and is exactly why we host our Open Days.

Metacognition. Helping kids unlock the power of ‘THINKING ABOUT THINKING’.

Researchers from the University of Liverpool found that participation in the News Literacy Lab left students “feeling more equipped to evaluate the credibility of news sources”, and to be “aware of their own biases and those of media organisations”.

We had the honour of hosting Ms Hilary Easton at St Andrews International School Bangkok for an exciting week of dance workshops. A New York native, artistic director of her own contemporary dance company Hilary Easton + Company, and a distinguished Dance Composition specialist at Juilliard, Hilary certainly came in with a wealth of experience and knowledge to share.

Lifelong bonds are formed in our classrooms, corridors, and communal spaces. These friendships – which span nationalities and age groups – offer comfort, emotional support, and a sense of belonging. They also bring laughter and fun – as well as providing the backdrop to unforgettable shared learning experiences.

Life at St Andrews is fun and exciting. But we also understand that every student’s learning journey involves lots of hard work and academic pressure. This can cause our young people to feel stressed, whether it’s because of exams or coursework deadlines, or high expectations.

This topic resonates deeply with our school's values and mission. It brilliantly highlights the significance of creating an inclusive and ambitious learning environment, where every student can thrive. The emphasis on fostering a sense of community, while cultivating innovation and authenticity, is exactly our ethos here at St Andrews.
