About NIST International School

The first and only full, not-for-profit International Baccalaureate (IB) World School in Bangkok, NIST International School was established in 1992 with the support of the United Nations. We now welcome over 1,800 students representing more than 75 nationalities and provide all three IB programmes: the Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme and Diploma Programme. We are governed by the parent-elected NIST International School Foundation and is accredited by the Council of International Schools and New England Association of Schools and Colleges. Beyond the rigorous, progressive IB curriculum, we are a values-driven school that seeks to provide unique learning opportunities for all students. Through an expansive World Languages Programme, a vast range of extra-curricular activities and a strong focus on service learning, we aim to transform the greater community by fostering an appreciation of diversity and a drive for excellence. At our core, we maintain a singular focus: inspiring, empowering and enriching lives.
