The Sarasas story starts over 45 years
ago when the first of all our schools opened in 1964. Now the
Sarasas name is on the tips of many parent's tongues when it comes
to choosing which school to send their child to. Why is this? Well
let's face facts there are many Thai schools, good Thai schools that
offer a first class education. What sets Sarasas apart from other
schools is that we teach a bilingual curriculum. That is we teach
the curriculum set out by the Thai Ministry of Education in the
English language along with the Thai language too.
This gives our students the advantage of eventually being able to
communicate around the world.
Let's not forget about the teachers, it is a known fact that many
parents and students want to come to our schools because of the
number and the quality of our foreign teachers.
At Bangbon alone we now
employ around 175 foreign teachers and still
growing.
Sarasas Witaed Bangbon School is now 10 years
old. In those 10 years it has gone from 1 building, 500 students and
9 teachers to 12 buildings, over 8,000 students and 130 foreign
teachers. Our students range from just over 3 years old up to 18
years.
Nearly all subjects taught have a text book to work from. There
are one or two exceptions but this is being addressed and books are
being written specially for the Sarasas Affiliated Schools. The
school is managed predominately by Thai administration and backed up
by some foreign coordinators.
The school itself is situated in beautifully landscaped gardens
(see our campus section and online photo album)
that also encompass the on campus accommodation. All in
all, the setting is very relaxing and you would not believe you live
so close to the city center. |
