Unlocking your child’s potential
High levels across all subjects can be achieved through an excellent phonics program. When a child learns to read, they begin to learn for themselves.
Quality mathematics programs don’t only teach the basics but they also show children how to apply what they have learnt in all subjects.
Reggio style child-led topics mean the children are in charge of what they learn, making learning relevant and motivating.
A solid scientific inquiry focuses on the method rather than the outcome. Whilst knowledge is important the route to knowledge is what counts most.
Green / Healthy / Balanced
♦ Committed to reducing our footprint and empowering future generations with the passion to bring about real change.
♦ Wholeheartedly encouraging healthy attitudes to food and exercise whilst cultivating mental and physical well-being.
♦ Devoted to creating a balanced curriculum reflecting life skills, subject knowledge and social awareness.
Learning is best through play
We take play very seriously at British Early Years Centre. The curriculum balances child initiated play and teacher led play. We believe that children should be freeto choose the type of play, the toys and activities themselves during free play time, in much the same way as Montessori learning. We use the children’s play to gather information in order to inform our own planning so that we can address the needs of each individual child. It is therefore our responsibility to make available to the children, a wealth of resources and different types of play.
Adult led play is more of a balance of the different types of play. We like to ensure that every child has daily opportunities to develop fine and gross motor skills as well as developing their creativity and imagination. Role play is an incredibly important part of the curriculum as it allows language and knowledge to be developed rapidly in a fun and exciting way.
Qualified teachers matter
- Skilled educators, child-care experts and pastoral carers in every classroom are essential for the holistic development or each individual.
- Fluent, experienced Assistants proficient in the teaching of Phonics are the perfect support for any classroom teacher.
- Excellent communication between Parents, Teachers, Head of School and Directors eliminates all barriers to development.
- All staff have teaching degrees and Thai assistants have TOEIC scores of 800+ or the equivalent in IELTS.

Allergen free environment
Your child’s well-being is the most important aspect about what we do. As well as minimising all common food allergens from the school menu we have worked hard over the last two years to develop our own range of soap, shampoo and cleaners which are allergen and fragrance free. We are now confident that all our products have the best ingredients without any harmful chemicals.
Air Quality Monitoring
At BEYC we use Air Visual Pro monitors to display real time data for PM2.5, CO2, Temperature and Humidity. This data is available for parents to check via Air Visual App. Levels are monitored throughout the day and we act in line with our policy whenever pollutants become too hazardous.
Every room is now equipped with an air purifier linked to the school’s SMART system. This allows us to monitor the classroom’s temperature, humidity and AQI levels.
Socially and environmentally Responsible
It is vital for children to understand the cause and effect that humans have had on the environment and how climate and wildlife have been permanently affected.
Awareness-promoting campaigns as well as community charity events, all play a vital role in the children’s understanding of the social problems the world faces.
Using the scientific process to conduct experiments, children are able to learn first hand about the real life threats to their planet and most importantly how we can tackle these threats. Project-based topics such as recycling, pollution, renewable energy, waste, overpopulation and deforestation are taught from Foundation to Year 1 and children learn how humans have impacted on their planet.
It is our goal to empower children with the knowledge to make a difference in the world, reducing their own personal impact on the Earth and also in turn, educating and influencing others around them.
Support the children’s latest awareness campaign and start reducing your plastic footprint today!
What The Parents Say
Our son attended the school for 3 years, and in that time, learnt about Michaelangelo and David Bowie, developed a fierce passion for learning new things, especially science, and most importantly, grew socially, with teachers who helped him navigate emotions and interactions. Some say teachers are meant to instruct and parents to educate, but there’s a whole lot of education going on at BEYC too. We are grateful to have been part of its family during our son’s crucial early years.
