SALT International

A small K-12 Christian international school in Bundang-Pangyo with a service and character-formation tilt, not a typical foreign-school option.



A small K-12 Christian international school in Bundang-Pangyo with a service and character-formation tilt, not a typical foreign-school option.

SALT stands for Students Around Loving Teachers and is run on Christian values, with elementary through high school grades on a single campus in Seongnam. The school leans into a relationship-driven model with small classes, named mentoring and project-based work tied to its QLEP leadership initiative. Justin Park leads as principal, and NCPSA is the cited accreditor.

Public parent voice is thin. The pitch is families who want a faith-anchored environment, smaller and more pastoral than the big Seongnam options like KIS Pangyo or SIS. As with most schools in this tier, families weighing SALT should confirm how its diploma is treated by Korean universities and the destinations they care about, since accreditation status for unaccredited international schools in Korea has been a live issue in local press.
