CHONBURI — Highgate International School Thailand reached a pivotal milestone with its Stone Laying Ceremony at the future campus site near Siam Country Club in Chonburi on March 9, 2025.
The event brought together representatives from Siam Motors Group, the Phornprapha Family, and Highgate School UK to mark the next phase of development before the school’s planned opening in August 2026.
The ceremony highlighted the partnership between Siam Motors Group, the Phornprapha Family, and Highgate School UK in their mission to bring premium British education to Thailand. Following the English National Curriculum, the school will initially serve students aged 2 to 11 in its Pre-Prep and Junior School, with plans to expand to Senior School and boarding facilities in subsequent years.
Tanyaporn Phornprapha Tangcravakoon, Chair of the School Board, emphasized the institution’s commitment to academic excellence alongside its core values of “Curiosity and Rigour, Engagement and Enthusiasm, Community and Kindness.”
“Highgate International School Thailand is dedicated to providing an outstanding education that blends academic excellence with intellectual curiosity,” she stated. “With these values at our core, we inspire a lifelong love of learning, foster independence and collaboration, and empower students to make a meaningful impact in the world.”
The new institution aims to establish itself as a transformative force in Thailand’s educational landscape when it welcomes its first students next year.
