Inspiring students from 3 years old through to 18 years old.
For children to excel in the Early Years, they require space, time, challenging resources and quality interactions with adults. Our spacious environment offers natural, open-ended resources allowing our children to ‘free-flow’ between the indoors and outdoors for much of the day, allowing them to choose where they want to play, what with and how.
Our children are taught the skills, knowledge and understanding detailed in the English National Curriculum within the context of inspirational and dynamic topics.
Students learn to take on challenges, be innovative in their problem solving and be inquisitive about the world around them. They learn that their opinions matter, that their creativity is valued and that by looking after each other and our world around us, they can make a difference.
The HHIS Secondary Phase provides an enthusiastic and energetic environment for all our individual learners to achieve their very best. Students are fully guided by highly qualified and experienced teachers and receive regular feedback on their progress. Our students’ achievements are celebrated enthusiastically and we are committed to achieving high standards whilst at the same time maintaining a broad and balanced curriculum.
I am very pleased to welcome you to our website. I do hope you enjoy exploring the site and finding out about the exciting events, developments, philosophy and opportunities offered by our vibrant and rapidly growing school.
Having recently become a World International Baccalaureate School, we now have students from 3 years old through to 18 years old.
Our students enjoy the challenges set by our highly qualified, enthusiastic UK teachers. These challenges bring engagement with learning and enable UK curriculum expectations to be met and exceeded. Another important reason that our school is so special is the centrality of our ‘I’ values that are evident through every part of daily life. It is by making these key values explicit that our students will become independent, confident lifelong learners.
I hope you gain some insight into our school through our website but I do invite you to visit our school so that you can see and feel first hand the vibrancy and excitement of learning within our caring, secure and rather beautiful environment. Please do email me if you have any questions or would like to make a visit: juliew@huahinschool.com

Our ‘I” Values are woven into the fabric of daily life. They can be seen in the way our students interact, love learning and care for each other, their environment and the world beyond.
The following shows how each of our eight ‘I’ values are brought to life here at HHIS.
Children join our school from many different cultures and backgrounds and within a very short time they experience the warmth and excitement of making new friends and feeling part of a community.
Our small classes and caring, highly qualified staff ensure that the needs of all our students are met from our 3 year olds through to our 18 year olds. As with all our values, the wider issues of inclusion within the global community are explored within the curriculum.
All our students have a voice; we listen, respect and act.
Learning can be tough, taking on new challenges can be tough and growing from mistakes can be tough. Through encouragement and positive praise our students learn to understand these feelings, face them, work to overcome them and then experience the joy that results.
Our students are inspired by learning about ‘Great Lives’. They particularly enjoy learning how high achievers overcame adversity to gain success. They gain inspiration from those within their own community and notably from each other. They are motivated by the efforts and ideas of those around them.
This value is evident in the way our students inspire others through their creativity, vision, drive and zest to make a difference.
Students are given the skills, knowledge and understanding to be able to apply their learning to innovative ideas, solve problems and act with creativity. We encourage and model Innovation in all areas of the curriculum and throughout school life.
We are an ever-changing international community with students representing dozens of different nationalities. This rich diversity within our school is a source of great celebration and provides opportunities to develop tolerance, understanding and respect for different cultures.
Caring for our global environment and the greater global community is a central focus for our whole school.
We get to know our students really well. We try to understand the best way they learn, their areas of strength, areas in which they struggle and their underlying attitudes and interests. We respect them as individuals and all that they have to offer. Celebrating individuality supports the development of tolerance, understanding of difference, the development of social skills and also of the importance of the way as individuals we can work together. Each and every individual in our school matters.
All our ‘I’ values come together to enable the wondrous imagination of our students to come alive. They are given the skills, respect and time to allow their imagination to come to life in the their ideas, writing, art work, music and problem solving within all areas of the curriculum and life.
At every age, level and subject teachers plan to ‘hook’ the students into their learning by piquing their interests and curiosity to want to find out more. We encourage questioning and allow learning to follow the interests of the student. By providing experiences and opportunities and developing skills students develop enquiring minds that challenge and question their world around them. Fuelling the students inquisitive nature provides the motivation for independent, lifelong learning.
