About the school
| Qualities and characteristics best defining the school |
Mandarin International School is founded and financed by Thailand’s Asia International Education Group, a subsidiary of the Cunjin Education Group. It has been approved and recognized by the Office of Private Education Committee of the Ministry of Education of Thailand, as well as the Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in Thailand. MIS is the first and only large, high-end international school with internationally recognized academic qualifications in Thailand to conduct all teaching in Chinese, with courses fully in-line with the Chinese curriculum, while also offering international English courses. |
| Teaching approach of the school |
MIS provides Chinese national students, Thai Chinese students, and students from all other countries with courses that are in sync with the Chinese curriculum. We utilize our advantage of teaching all lessons in Chinese to establish long-term cooperation agreements with multiple Chinese universities, creating an open lane for students to travel to China for further studies. MIS has advanced professional Chinese courses and world-class teachers. We selectively introduce original teaching materials from China, and the majority of courses are taught in Chinese. The school will upgrade its curriculum annually to ensure that it is in pace with societal and technological progress so that the knowledge and education that our students receive will always be at the cutting edge of Chinese educational trends.
