Burapha Pattanasart International School.

Half the fees
of a pure international,
at British secondary.

BPIS was spun out in 2018 from the 25+ year-old Burapha English-Programme School (BEST). The pragmatic Pattaya pathway: bilingual primary at BEST, then international secondary at BPIS for IGCSE and A-Levels. Roughly half the fees of a pure international education with the same Cambridge-CAIE accreditation. UK National Curriculum across Key Stages 3–5. Thai Ministry of Education accredited. C-SMART values framework — Communication, Study skills, Morality, Attitude, Responsibility, Technology. Fees verify on the BPIS site.
