EtonHouse International Education Group, a leading global education provider, has officially expanded its footprint in Southeast Asia with the debut of Middleton International School Bangkok (MISB). The milestone was celebrated with a premier launch event at the InterContinental Bangkok, offering guests an exclusive and immersive introduction to the school’s distinctive, future-ready K-12 education model.
Purpose-built for a globalised world, MISB is part of the EtonHouse Group, renowned for delivering high-quality education across nine countries in Asia, the Middle East, and Bhutan. MISB offers a world-class curriculum from early years to high school while remaining deeply rooted in the Thai context. The school’s teaching philosophy balances academic excellence with a strong focus on student wellbeing, guided by an inquiry-led approach inspired by the Reggio Emilia educational philosophy. This is supported by a globally recognised curriculum framework that includes the International Primary Curriculum from the UK, Singapore Maths, IGCSE, and International A-Levels from Cambridge. Students also have access to EtonHouse Global Classrooms, connecting them and their families with peers across the Group’s network of schools. Opportunities include short-term and long-term exchange programmes, cultural immersion trips, and collaborative projects across the region.
Distinguished by its sophisticated trilingual programme, MISB provides immersive learning in English, Thai, and Mandarin. This framework is designed to cultivate cognitive flexibility and cultural intelligence, ensuring students are equipped to navigate and lead in a multicultural landscape.
Bangkok remains one of Southeast Asia’s most dynamic hubs for international education. With over 100 schools currently operating in the capital, the sector continues to thrive, driven by sustained demand from expatriate families and globally minded Thai parents seeking diverse academic pathways. MISB responds by offering an aspirational international education programme that is also accessible while building authentic cross-cultural connections, fostering adaptability, empathy, and global citizenship in every child.
The morning programme opened with presentations from Ng Yi-Xian, Group CEO of EtonHouse International Education Group, and Edward Wyn Jones, Head of School, who shared the vision behind Middleton International School Bangkok as a high-quality, globally recognised education that is accessible, culturally relevant, and future-ready, tailored for both Thai and international families.
“Middleton International School Bangkok is designed for families who want more than academic results alone,” said Ng Yi-Xian. “It is about nurturing confident, curious learners with a strong sense of identity, creativity, and wellbeing, while ensuring they are equipped with the skills and mindset to thrive in a global context.”
Moving beyond a traditional school preview, guests experienced learning as students would through an immersive introduction to Middleton’s transformative pedagogy, led by the school’s pedagogistas, atelieristas, and educators.
The experience revealed a clear continuum of learning across age groups, from sensory and colour exploration in the early years, to sound and storytelling, structure and image, and explorations of energy and systems for older learners. It also illustrated how inquiry deepens with development in Middleton’s learning environment, which serves as a ‘third teacher’ rooted in the Thai cultural context, supporting critical thinking, communication, and creativity.
Edward Wyn Jones, Head of School, EH Middleton Education (Thai) Co. Ltd., shared, “Our approach places children at the heart of learning. Through a trilingual, inquiry-led programme and carefully designed environments, students are encouraged to explore, question, and make meaning of the world around them, skills that are essential for the future.”
Middleton International School Bangkok is currently enrolling students from Nursery 1 to Grade 4 and will progressively expand to serve students up to the age of 18.
