Highgate School, a prestigious UK-based co-educational institution, is scheduled to open its first international school in Thailand in August 2026 through a partnership with Siam Motors Group. The school, located within the grounds of the Siam Country Club in Chonburi province, aims to blend Highgate’s 460-year legacy with the modern ambition of the Thai organisation.

The new campus will offer a three-part educational structure, ranging from pre-prep to senior school, accommodating 1,400 students aged 2–18. Following the English national curriculum, the school will prepare students for GCSE and A Level exams, while also providing co-curricular activities to enhance the student experience. Facilities will include a library, a STEM centre, a state-of-the-art auditorium, an Olympic-sized swimming pool, a FIFA-standard football pitch, and a golf academy.

Adam Pettitt, Head of Highgate School, expressed pride in the collaboration, describing it as “an enormous privilege” to bring together Highgate’s educational expertise and Siam Motors Group’s drive. Siam Motors Group president Prakasit Phornprapha emphasised the project’s commitment to academic excellence and personal development, positioning the school as a regional leader in international education.

The venture represents Siam Motors Group’s continued dedication to Thailand’s educational advancement, aiming to foster well-rounded, globally competent graduates.
