About this school
Life School Phuket was founded in 2016 by a group of homeschooling families and educators, led by co-founders and directors Max and Dave, who wanted to combine the personal attention of homeschooling with the structure of a regular school. The homeschool ethos still shapes its teaching, and classes have fewer than 12 students.
The school takes children aged 3 to 18. Maths, English and science follow British (Cambridge) curriculum stages 1–9, alongside Thai and Chinese language and culture, art, music, history, geography, ICT and physical education. For older students it recommends an accredited US high school diploma as an alternative to IGCSE and A Levels, and the school says many students graduate up to two years early. Teaching is project-based and adapted to each child's pace.
Alongside academics, students learn life skills such as cooking and gardening, coding and data science, chess, finance, goal setting and meditation. They also go on regular field trips around Phuket, including beaches, waterfalls, camping and historical sites, and take part in volunteering and environmental projects.
