UWC THAILAND
STEADY AT THE HELM
Rooted in Culture, Driven by Vision
At UWC Thailand, education functions as a profound catalyst for unity and transformation. Anchored in the UWC mission to unite people, nations, and cultures in pursuit of peace and a sustainable future, our educational philosophy nurtures the whole child—mind, body, and spirit. We integrate academic excellence with emotional intelligence, mindfulness, community service, and outdoor learning. Within this diverse and inclusive environment, Thai culture is respectfully honoured, and every student is empowered to become a compassionate leader, a courageous thinker, and an engaged global citizen. As Thai School Director, I ensure that our school operates in full compliance with the Private Schools Act and all Thai regulatory frameworks, including health and safety, military service obligations, and curriculum requirements. These foundations are essential to maintaining stability and long-term credibility, and they also help position UWC Thailand as a trusted international school deeply rooted in its host country. Throughout the year, I have worked in close collaboration with the Education for a Sustainable Future Foundation (ESF) and Banyanpura Limited (BL) to uphold policies that align with both Thai law and UWC values. I also support the integration and delivery of the Thai Curriculum, ensuring it meets academic standards while celebrating cultural identity and relevance. These responsibilities reflect my commitment to bridging international perspectives with Thai educational principles.
