Any Thai Schools Teaching In English?

[worldtraveler5]

My daughter is 9 year old American (half Asian) and currently in year 5 at an international school in Ploenchit. Since I am self employed and running a small business, my company isn't covering the school expense and I am really feeling that international schools are too expensive (250,000 to 400,000 per year).

Therefore, I was interested to know if there are any high end local Thai schools that might have an English program (or mostly English program) and would accept international students. Cost is a big factor here but also I don't think it wouldn't be a bad thing for my daughter to learn Thai more aggressively, which I don't really see happening in the international school. I know of some expats that put their kids in a full on Thai school, but they were much younger.

I live in the Sukhumvit area so obviously prefer something within reach but open to any suggestions anyone here might have! Do I really have to pay 250,000 baht a year for school? In the US she attended a free public school so this is a major chance for us.

Thanks..

My kids are enrolled in this school and they are not Thai.

Bilingual program with US teachers.

I'm very happy but maybe too far for you.
