About this school
Dragon International School (DIS) is a small international school on Nakhon In Road in Bang Kruai, Nonthaburi, in the Ratchaphruek–Rama 5 area. It was founded by its school director, Cheng Kwek Loong, a Singaporean graduate of Nanyang Technological University and Sasin at Chulalongkorn University. The school admitted its first kindergarten pupils in May 2009.
The school follows a Singaporean curriculum and teaches young children through the primary years:
- Playgroup, inspired by Singapore's early childhood framework and built on play and exploration
- Nursery, a gentle introduction to structured learning
- Kindergarten, with a holistic, values-based approach that focuses on thinking skills
- Primary Years, with structured teaching aimed at strong fundamentals and mastery
The stated vision is a thematic, integrated, learning-centre approach focused on critical thinking. A co-curricular programme supports the curriculum's core values of respect, responsibility, resilience, integrity, care and harmony. It covers arts and crafts, taekwondo and other sports, music and performing arts, and a student council. Thai teachers and specialist teachers work alongside the classroom staff.
