St Andrews International School, Sukhumvit 107 (S107)
St Andrews International School Sukhumvit 107 is a smaller Cognita British curriculum school serving 450 students from Nursery to Year 13, offering IGCSEs and the IB Diploma Programme in a close-knit community setting. While it receives honorable mentions from Bangkok…
In brief
Founded in 1997 as part of the St Andrews group in Thailand, the school operates under Cognita's educational umbrella on a surprisingly large, leafy campus in Bangkok's Sukhumvit 107 area. Principal Carl Hutson leads the institution after extensive international experience, delivering an enhanced UK National Curriculum from Early Years Foundation Stage through to IB Diploma Programme. The school emphasizes multilingual education with Thai, Mandarin, and French language options, alongside a strong service learning program that includes water tank construction projects in northern Thailand and refugee support work.
With approximately 450 students representing over 40 nationalities, St Andrews Sukhumvit 107 maintains a more intimate scale than many Bangkok international schools, creating what students and teachers describe as a 'villagey feel' and family-like community. The school features dedicated Early Years facilities, swimming programs from age 2, and an active house system that builds school spirit through weekly house t-shirt days. However, unlike established Bangkok institutions with extensive public profiles, specific fee structures, IB results, and university placement data remain unavailable, making it difficult for parents to assess academic outcomes compared to peer schools.

Reviews
- Parents describe a small, family-feel campus on the Bang Na end of Sukhumvit. Children known by name, close-knit parent body, BTS Bearing access cited as a practical advantage for working families.
- Treated by Bangkok teaching forums as a credible second-tier choice. One Reddit poster listing well-regarded Bangkok schools put S107 in the same group as Sathorn, Dusit, Shrewsbury, Kings, VERSO and Ruamrudee.
- All-through structure (age 2 to 18) with British curriculum and IB Diploma in Years 12 and 13 noted as a draw for parents who want continuity rather than switching schools at secondary.
- Cognita ownership is the recurring caveat. Teachers describe the school positively but note the same group-level concerns flagged across the other Cognita St Andrews campuses, including pay below NIST, ISB and Patana.
- Independent parent reviews online are limited and skew older. Recent voices come mainly from teaching forums and school-circle Facebook groups rather than open parent communities.
