May 14, 201115 yr Hi allI have a job interview at Pan-Asia International School in Bangkok next week, do any of the board members have any feedback / comments on this school.I would especialy be interested in comments from current or former employees.For those who will undoubtable say "google" it, I have already, but didn't really get any info other than where it is located, and it appears to have strong muslim connections (owners / curiculum subjects).Regarding the location, any ideas how much rental prices are in that area, houses / condo's etc?Thanks in advance for any info.
May 14, 201115 yr I know people that have worked there - all reports are that it is a decent place to work, not the best school in Thailand but they treat staff well, hire able teachers/graduates/professionals and strive to be a school that deliver an education (instead of simply take profits like a number of other "international schools" in Thailand). A little out of Bangkok for hanging out on sukhumvit on weeknights but the BTS extension should take you closer and there is the airport link. Less pollution and a beautiful park in the area too as well as seacon square shopping centre. Basically it is somewhere that is worth working - you could do a lot worse.

I wonder what they would have said if he had worn a kippa and shirt with the US flag on it to the interview Hope working at this school doesn't cause problems for its employees at immigration etc. Edited May 15, 201115 yr by Scott spelling
May 18, 201115 yr Take the school for what it is: an institution completely funded by oil money from West Asia. The students are great, but the administration has been taken over by the Ottoman Empire. You will meet *(Name edited out)* with enough negative energy to depress most of the adjacent neighbourhood. Work there, make money, and educate...it is hardly in the sticks compadre. Edited May 18, 201115 yr by Scott Name edited out
May 20, 201115 yr What a description for an educational institution.... Next time in bkk would surely pay a visit there just to look around satisfying my own curiosity....
