OUR MISSION
‘Leadership for a better world’ is as much the ethos
as the mission of Harrow International
School Bangkok, and is woven into the fabric
of our School’s life. Our innovative Leadership in Action (LiA) Programme is structured to develop
leadership attributes in six areas: Service, Charity, Teamwork, Creative Expression,
Leadership, and Challenge. These values are embedded
into all aspects of School life, to enable our students’
ability to influence their world for the better.

CONTRIBUTING TO THE COMMUNITY
Involving students in service encourages
them to transform the natural tendency to serve oneself to serving others.
Community service is a fundamental aspect of our students’ education,
as they consider their place in the world, and their ability to improve
the lives of others.

APPLYING KNOWLEDGE WITH COMPASSION
The human trait of possessiveness can be transformed to a desire
to share by involving students in charitable
activity. Additionally, we specialise in high quality
boarding; immersing children in our ethos promotes friendship, support for others,
and trusting and open interactions
with teachers.

SOLVING PROBLEMS COLLABORATIVELY
Co-operation and collaboration emerge when students work
together towards common objectives. True to the tradition
of all the Schools in the Harrow Family, the House
System is at the heart of our students’ lives.
It encourages co-operation and friendly competition
within a supportive environment.

SOLVING PROBLEMS CREATIVELY
When students express themselves creatively,
they can motivate and inspire others.
Creativity is a vital strand running throughout our Curriculum, inside and outside the classroom, to encourage students
to challenge their perceptions and think
innovatively when problem solving.

MAKING JUST CHOICES
When students consider the issues at hand
with the needs of others as the objective, they
become Servant Leaders. We consistently produce
students who excel academically. Yet a Harrow Bangkok
education also focuses equally on pastoral support
and LiA activities that help shape our students
into future leaders.

FACING CHALLENGES WITH DETERMINATION
Placing students in challenging situations, outside their comfort
zone, develops the determination to see a challenge through to
completion — a valuable attribute when seeking to improve the situation
for others. Our ethos forms the core of our sporting philosophy,
which promotes giving one’s best and pursuing
excellence, whilst fostering self-confidence
and collegiality.
