At a glance
Curriculum and academics
Ascot is a rare full continuum IB world school, authorised for the Primary Years Programme, the Middle Years Programme, the Diploma Programme and the Career related Programme. This means a child can move from early years inquiry learning through to a Diploma or a career focused pathway without changing schools or curriculum philosophy, the most demanding authorisation level the International Baccalaureate awards. The school also draws on Cambridge Assessment International Education elements within its framework.
The Career related Programme is less common in Bangkok than the Diploma, and its presence here gives students a route that blends IB study with practical and professional learning. For families comparing the IB against A Levels and the American system, our IB curriculum guide explains how the Diploma is scored and recognised by universities worldwide, and the IB schools in Bangkok hub maps the wider IB market.

Ascot International School fees
Ascot sits across the value to mid and premium bands on our Bangkok international school fees guide, which makes it relatively accessible for a full IB continuum school. Published yearly fees range from roughly THB 273,819 to THB 594,969 depending on the year group, and the school applies sibling discounts of 10 per cent for a second child and 20 per cent for a third and subsequent children. Treat these as published figures that change each year.
Beyond tuition, budget for a nonrefundable registration fee, a refundable deposit and the usual Bangkok extras of uniform, IB examination fees in the Diploma years and bus charges. Our fee calculator turns the headline tuition into a full annual estimate including the sibling discount where it applies.
Admissions
Admission runs on a rolling basis with the main intake at the August start of the academic year. The school typically reviews recent reports and may use an age appropriate assessment to confirm placement, particularly for entry into the Middle Years and Diploma stages where prior study shapes subject choices. Diploma entry into Year 12 benefits from early enquiry so subject combinations can be confirmed.
As a continuum school, Ascot suits families who want a single setting from toddler years to graduation. Mid year entry is feasible in many year groups, and admissions can confirm availability in your child's stage.
Location and who goes there
Ascot sits in Ramkhamhaeng in eastern Bangkok, a residential and university district away from the dense central Sukhumvit corridor. The area offers more space and lower housing costs than the central belt, which suits families who prioritise value and a calmer setting over a short central commute. The eastern location places it within reach of the Ramkhamhaeng and Bang Kapi neighbourhoods.
The full continuum and relatively accessible fees draw a mixed international and Thai community looking for a complete IB pathway without premium central pricing. For the wider map of where IB families settle across the city, see the Bangkok city hub.
