Why Our Parents Choose Us

Parents choose the First and Future Steps International School for our reputation as a leading international preschool and primary school in Thailand. With a curriculum that integrates the British Early Years Foundation Stage framework and the International Primary Curriculum, the school provides a stimulating and nurturing learning environment for children from 18 months to 11 years old.

Our experienced and highly qualified teachers use innovative teaching methods and technology to engage students in hands-on learning experiences. The school also boasts modern facilities, including a swimming pool, playgrounds, a library, and a music and drama studio.

Convenient Location

Perfectly situated downtown in a heavily international location, The First & Future Steps is ideal for your busy family! Our convenient location on Sukhumvit 31 means reduced travel times for you and your child(ren)—actually many of our students are able to walk to school! This means, no more driving 40+ minutes each way to get to and from school, so you and your family can spend more quality time together.

We also offer a complimentary private tuk-tuk service to and from the RSU Building on the corner of Sukhumvit 31 and Sukhumvit Road.

Multi-Cultural Community

With students from over 35+ nationalities, parents love the fact that we are a truly international school. In this setting, your child will learn to see the world through their peers’ eyes, gain a deeper sense of empathy, and learn so much more about different cultures, traditions, and customs. This helps your child become the well-rounded student you hope for.

English Acquisition

With English as the common language amongst our learners from all over the world, it makes it that much easier for your child to learn the language as it will be their main way of communication, which helps your child learn quicker. Because there is no one dominant nationality in our community, your child is exposed to many different languages at play time. However, in the class environment, we encourage and remind students to speak English so that they learn it quicker. We also have dedicated teachers to deliver EAL (English as an Additional Language) lessons to those that need it.

Bilingual Options

Our optional French and German Bilingual Programmes are unique to The First Steps Early Years curriculum. If you are a bilingual family and would like your child(ren) to continue learning these languages, they now have the opportunity to benefit from a bilingual education.

Space to Play

One of the best ways for your child to learn is through play. That’s why we’ve made it a priority to give your child the space they need to run, climb, swim, bike, and explore while using the playground, bicycle track, heated, salt water indoor swimming pool, outdoor garden, football field, and more!

Strong Community

For over 25 years we have provided a community-centred school where your child is known as an individual. Every student is known by name, which means your child will feel like they belong and receive the best, personalised education they can!

With a focus on developing well-rounded individuals, First and Future Steps prepares students for success in a global society.
