Koh Samui School

Lamai International School (LIS).

EYFS Montessori approach + Cambridge Primary & Lower Secondary · Lamai (east coast)

Lamai International School (LIS) opened in January 2016 at 206/36 Moo 4, Maret, on Koh Samui's east coast near Lamai. Its youngest learners follow the Early Years Foundation Stage through a Montessori approach, before progressing into the Cambridge Primary and Lower Secondary curriculum, with English as the sole language of instruction. The school is organised into Early Years (ages 3-5), Primary (Years 1-6, ages 5-11) and Lower Secondary (Years 7-9, ages 11-14) -- it does not currently offer upper-secondary or sixth-form years -- and runs an Education for Sustainable Development programme integrating the UN Sustainable Development Goals into daily learning.
