a) Young Learners (Nursery – Kindergarten)
There is no problem recorded till now. Students have a great ability to adapt especially in young ages. Our teachers have an experience to deal with students who have no background in Thai Language and/or in English.
b) Moving from International Schools
Students may have some difficulties in Thai Language and subjects taught in Thai Language. Chindamanee has a system to handle this problem. Basically students will get enough time to catch up classmates with teachers’ aid.
c) Moving from other EP School
There is no problem about curriculum and system. Mostly students will adapt in a short time.
d) Moving from abroad
Students moving from abroad need more time to adapt Chindamanee’s system. Students who have a problem in either Thai Language or English or both are followed by assigned advisors. Students have to take extra courses and study more some after school, some on the weekend.

Chindamanee offers Chinese Language for Grades 4-9 and Turkish Language for Grades 7-9. Both languages are carefully chosen for students’ future.

Many opportunities for highly able students occur within the regular school timetable and some activities are available beyond school hours. The structure and features of the program vary according to the age and stage of the students.
