Still Looking for the Right School Place This September?
Year 13 IB Visual Arts students at St Andrews International School Bangkok have been practising their drawing skills and meeting artistic alumni.
It has been a busy week for Year 13 Visual Arts students. Not only have they been working hard to develop work for their final exhibition in March 2019, but they have also been refreshing their drawing skills with a “gestural drawing” workshop. A great technique for improving drawing skills is to draw using the whole arm, with a piece of charcoal, or similar material, attached to the end of a long stick. It helps the artist loosen up, and working at arms length allows one to see one’s work better. The resulting images are fresh and expressive, capturing a sense of the dynamism of the subject. On Friday they were also treated to a visit by alumni art student Gene Karujitr, who is currently studying Fine Art at Chelsea School of Art in London. Gene left St Andrews in 2016 having graduated with a level 7 in IB Visual Arts and shared her advice for building portfolios, Art school applications and surviving life as an Visual Arts student.
At St Andrews International School, learning goes beyond the classroom through Nord Anglia’s Global Campus, an exclusive online platform that connects students worldwide in dynamic, curriculum-linked activities, challenges, and competitions. From global art competitions and STEAM challenges with MIT to literacy events and service expeditions, students explore real-world issues, express creativity, and grow as global citizens.
At St Andrews, our Early Years Foundation Stage (FS1–FS3) offers a warm, purpose-built environment where children aged 2 to 5 can grow, explore, and thrive through play-based, personalised learning. With small class sizes, dedicated spaces, and strong relationships between educators, children, and families, we create a nurturing ‘small school’ experience within our larger international community, laying the foundation for confident, lifelong learners and an easier ‘big school’ transition.
At St Andrews, safeguarding means ensuring every student feels safe, supported, and protected. Staff and students regularly take part in fire drills, evacuation exercises, and safety routines to stay confident and prepared for any situation. With certified training in first aid and emergency response, our staff are equipped to act quickly and calmly when it matters most. Students remain at the heart of every safety measure, and we’re proud to maintain a secure, well-prepared school environment—audited and supported by both local and international partners.
At St Andrews, the role of Head of Year is vital in supporting both the academic progress and personal development of every student. In Primary School, the Head of Year (or Year Leader) plays a key role in leading academic and pastoral support by ensuring consistent curriculum delivery, fostering student well-being, and creating a safe, engaging environment. While in High School, the Head of Year shifts focus to mainly pastoral care by overseeing student well-being, monitoring attendance, liaising with families, and offering early interventions to help students navigate adolescence and achieve their full potential.
