St. Andrews International School Bangkok collaborates with world-leading tertiary institutions to foster a love of learning in your child, just as universities inspire their students to direct their own learning. The opportunity of working with The Juilliard School's world-leading artists will no doubt inspire our students' curiosity and creativity, encouraging them to be ambitious for themselves and aim high.

Students at St Andrews International School Bangkok have begun an exciting artificial intelligence project: integrating Nord Anglia’s “Misty the Robot” with conversational AI model, ChatGPT. Under the guidance of our Head of Robotics, Mr Rob Parker, they recently presented their results to Regional Managing Director, Mr Shaun Williams, as well as the Board of Directors at St Andrews, with the proposition of growing this project as a collaborative research venture across Nord Anglia schools.
