In brief
Mill Hill's first overseas school. Opened September 2025 in Doi Saket, operated locally by Ornsirin under partnership with the UK Mill Hill Education Group.
Currently Nursery to Year 6 for the 2025 to 2026 launch year, building toward a full 3 to 18 school by 2029. Around 150 students in the opening intake. British curriculum starting with EYFS, then Prep, with Senior added as cohorts progress. Founding head Kate Simon comes from Grimsdell, Mill Hill's pre-prep in London. Director on the ground is Dr Yuthachai Damrongmanee.
The campus sits in Ornsirin City Park on the third ring road, with around a billion baht of investment behind it. Phase one facilities include a library and pre-prep pool, with a 500-seat auditorium, science labs, and full sports grounds in the build plan. The school has the brand, the funding, and a credible founding head, but no track record yet. Families joining now are buying a vision, not a school with results.
