Hi

I've got my kids at Bangkok Patana School. It is a truly wonderful school, they love it, adn the facilities adn educational skills and experiences far supercede those of the school they were at last.

First you need to decide whether your kids need to follow an English or American system (or Singapore, or French or Australian etc... they are all here).

Yes, the International SChools are full of Thai students as well, I think Pantana maybe around 50/60% Thai, but we are living in Thailand! What's wrong with that! It enhances the expereicne and helps the kids to integrate within a cefrtain part of tHai Society. Many of my kids friends are Thai, many are from everywhere around the world.

Decide what system you want, consider where you live, travelling time is importnat, you should ideally live near to the school, not the other sided of Bangkok, and finally decide on your budget, as they are all priced at differnet levels.

Hope the info is useful. Once you know what you are looking for, visit them, visit the websites, its not so difficult actually.
