Benchamatheputhit School

Ranked #1 of all high schools in the province, Benchama is home to gorgeous landscaping, indoor basketball court, beach volleyball court, a massive canteen and some of the brightest stars in public school academia.  Or at least, the richest.  Students here are inevitably from somewhat well-off families, as the uniform fee (read ‘tuition’) is the highest in the area.

The English Program consists of 10 native-speaking teachers with qualifications in English, Computer Science, Philosophy and TESOL.  The program holds weekend camps throughout the year for students and teachers to interact outside the classroom.  Training and competition judging are also priority for the rigorous speech competitions throughout the year.

Academics are tough here, though the ‘no fail’ policy and lack of multi-year interdisciplinary curriculum are often heated topics for farang teachers.
