MESSAGE FROM FOUNDER
Sabaidee! Welcome to Panyathip International School It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to our Panyathip International School in Savannakhet. Let me introduce myself – I am the Founder and Director of the school and first opened Panyathip International School in 2001. Over the past 15 years, we have grown into a Early Years, Primary and Secondary International School, with four campuses in Vientiane. Panyathip was the first International School to be accredited by the Cambridge Curriculum and we are now a Cambridge Examination Centre where we offer the International General Certificate of Education examinations. We were the first school in Laos that offers the International Primary Curriculum (IPC). For our Lao students, we also offer the Lao curriculum and examinations. I am therefore pleased that at Panyathip we can offer the breadth in the curriculum to meet the needs of the diverse International and Lao community. I would like to thank you for considering our school for your child(ren) and wish you a pleasant visit of our school.
