In keeping with the essence of Wellington College International School Bangkok, the Senior School is in a light and spacious, modern educational setting. As with previous phases of the School’s development, this third phase has been very carefully designed to capture the ‘tone’ of our school: exciting, inspiring, thought-provoking, innovative, and truly exceptional. A learning environment in Bangkok like no-other.
The Senior School comprises two buildings, each with a 400 student capacity. The six-storey Skylight building has a stunning cylindrical library and atrium at its centre running top to bottom. This provides numerous extra spaces for reading and learning, with fantastic natural lighting.
On the ground floor, flexible spaces provide for adaptive, multi-purpose learning environments and clear visibility across the whole senior school – through the central atrium and library, towards the dining room. The dining area itself gives the air of a relaxed resort hotel, opening out to a wonderful terrace area for students to enjoy. Throughout the next three floors are well-appointed, adaptable, and innovatively designed classrooms with extra spaces allowing for a variety of teaching and learning. Specific rooms for Harkness teaching are designed into the fabric of the building so that Harkness methodology is appropriately planned and specific. An important innovation is the introduction of ‘faculty salons’ for both staff and students in each subject area.
The fourth floor is home to a suite of Science labs and Maths rooms with the fifth floor housing both our Sixth Formers and the most impressive Arts studios in Bangkok.
