OUR PURPOSE
We value the transformative power of diverse experiences in a student's journey. Our curated Learning Programme, aligned with the IB philosophy, offers sports, service, expeditions, arts, and wellness opportunities. Through these experiences, students develop skills and qualities essential for success at NIST and beyond, fostering holistic education.
NIST, a leading educational institution in Thailand, offers the full range of International Baccalaureate (IB) programmes and a NIST Diploma. The concept-based curriculum integrates IB frameworks, NIST Attributes, and the UN Sustainable Development Goals, providing a comprehensive and well-rounded education. The Global Citizenship Diploma (GCD) is also offered to secondary students.
The NIST Expedition element provides structured outdoor activities that challenge students, fostering resilience and self-management. Starting from a young age, expeditions increase in difficulty, aligning with the Duke of Edinburgh's International Award scheme. Teachers play a significant role in guiding students and sharing experiences inside and outside the classroom.
The NIST Activities Programme offers over 300 diverse activities across academics, arts, sports, service, and more. Encouraging students to step outside their comfort zones, it fosters personal growth and resilience, and emphasises the importance of learning from challenges and making a positive impact on others.
Service Learning at NIST shapes global citizens dedicated to positive change. Integrated into our programme, it instills a service mindset, systems thinking, and sustainability partnerships. From early years to graduation, students embrace the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, making a meaningful impact on people and the planet.
Wellbeing is an integral part of the NIST Learning Programme, fostering a caring community where individuals feel supported and connected. Through respectful relationships, a balanced lifestyle, community engagement, and a learner-centered curriculum, NIST cultivates competency, enjoyment, and meaningful experiences for all community members.
