Anglo Singapore International School (ASIS)
Anglo Singapore International School Bangkok offers a distinctive Singaporean curriculum pathway in a city dominated by British and IB programmes. Established in 2003, it serves families seeking Singapore-style academic rigor with a STEAM-B focus, though it maintains a lower profile…
In brief
ASB delivers what it describes as a rigorous Singaporean curriculum blending high academic standards from Singapore and the UK, with particular emphasis on STEAM-B (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics with business focus). The school has built a reputation for academic achievement, with an unusually high 33% of graduates pursuing medical careers and students gaining places at top universities across Thailand, Singapore, UK, US, Australia, Japan and China. Located on Sukhumvit 64, it serves a diverse international community including overseas Singaporeans seeking familiar educational standards.
While ASB doesn't feature prominently in the broader Bangkok international school discussions dominated by schools like ISB, Bangkok Patana, or Shrewsbury, it occupies a specific niche for families wanting an alternative to the prevalent British curriculum and IB programmes. The school appears to maintain steady operations with ongoing teacher recruitment, suggesting stable enrollment despite limited public visibility. For families familiar with Singapore's education system or seeking a more specialized STEAM-focused approach, ASB provides a pathway that differs from Bangkok's mainstream international school offerings.

Reviews
- One detailed student review on the International Schools Database rated the school, noting that the curriculum is demanding and that the people felt less toxic than other Bangkok internationals they had experienced.
- Aggregated commentary on directory listings highlights strong Cambridge IGCSE results (with claimed top-in-Thailand and top-in-the-world places) and a supportive parent group.
- The recurring critical thread is curriculum coherence: parents flag the blend of Cambridge with Singaporean elements as confusing, and report micromanagement in the maths department restricting teacher latitude.
- Reddit signal is minimal: one Singapore-bound parent listed it as a finalist alongside Patana, NIST and SISB, then chose SISB instead.
