About BCIS
A growing international school in the heart of Chiang Mai, Thailand — part of the Ambassador Education Group.
Our Story
British Concordance International School is a growing international school in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Part of the Ambassador Education Group, we welcome 450+ students from more than 30 nationalities. We deliver a rigorous Cambridge curriculum enriched with international perspectives, but our ambitions go far beyond academic results.
We believe school should be more than preparation for exams. It should be a place where young people discover who they are, develop their talents, and build the confidence to shape their own futures. At BCIS, we create the conditions for students to flourish — academically, socially, creatively, and personally.
Our students don't just learn about the world; they learn how to engage with it thoughtfully, contribute to it meaningfully, and navigate its complexities with resilience and purpose.
Community at Our Core
BCIS is more than a school — it's a community. Our diversity is one of our greatest strengths. Students learn alongside peers from different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives, developing the understanding and respect that will serve them throughout their lives.
We work closely with families as partners in education. We believe children thrive when home and school share the same purpose: helping each student become the best version of themselves.
Preparing Students for Tomorrow
The world our students will inherit looks very different from the one their parents grew up in. We take seriously our responsibility to prepare them for futures we cannot fully predict.
This means developing critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and adaptability alongside academic excellence. It means helping students understand themselves, manage challenges, and find meaning in what they do.
Our Commitment
Our membership of the Council of International Schools reflects our commitment to continuous improvement and international standards of excellence. That commitment is embedded in how we work every day, not tied to a single external milestone.
Every day, we work to make BCIS a place where students thrive, where teachers are inspired, and where learning prepares young people not just for the next exam, but for life.
