Lamai International School

About LIS

Lamai International School opened its doors to the children of Koh Samui in January of 2016. Since then, the LIS Team has provided students with the highest level of education in a bright and flourishing environment. LIS has classes running from Foundation to Year 6 and has implemented a Cambridge Curriculum that is skillfully delivered by our qualified teachers. At LIS we encourage our students to be responsible citizens committed to a better world by also incorporating an Education for Sustainable Development component into our curriculum. The LIS ESD program is based on the UN Agenda 2030 and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, alongside an important element on Socio-Emotional Learning.

Our enthusiastic staff and unified student body make Lamai International School a remarkable place to learn. With our small class sizes and experienced staff, students at LIS learn in an enriched environment that caters to the individual needs and learning styles of each child. Our vision is to provide a safe and nurturing environment, with a core curriculum that promotes academic excellence while creating an atmosphere of cooperation, with respect for individual differences and community values.
