Scholarship Information

“At British International School, Phuket, we strive to enable the best to access the best.” – Simon Meredith, Head of School

We are proud to offer a range of scholarships to exceptional students who demonstrate excellence in academics and various other fields. Our scholarship programme aims to foster and enhance the strong academic, sporting, and cultural environment of BISP by attracting outstanding talent.

Dr. Arthit World Scholarships
Our prestigious Dr. Arthit World Scholarships are awarded to students excelling academically at the IBDP (International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme) entry level. These scholarships are designed to support and nurture the next generation of leaders and scholars.

Sport Scholarships
For students with exceptional talent in sports, we offer scholarships in the areas of Football, Swimming, Tennis, Golf, and Aerial Arts. These scholarships are available at the secondary school level and are designed to help students develop their athletic skills while achieving academic success.

Internal Scholarships
In addition to welcoming external applicants, we also offer scholarships to internal students who excel in their IGCSE examinations as well as those who demonstrate exceptional ability in their chosen sport. These students reflect excellence in both their training and competitions, contributing to success within BISP and on the world stage.

Our scholarship programme is a commitment to maintaining and advancing the rich tradition of academic and athletic excellence at BISP.

Scholarship applications for the 2025-2026 academic year are now open.

Scholarship recipients at BISP are expected to:

• Fully engage in all aspects of school life and serve as role models for their peers.
• Maintain strong academic performance.
• Uphold an excellent attendance record, ensuring they are present at the start and end of each term.
• Demonstrate exemplary behaviour at all times.
• Honor all commitments with integrity and dedication.

All scholarship students and their parents should read their individual scholarship conditions and ensure they are familiar with the details. In general:

1. Scholarships will be withdrawn if students do not meet the general expectations above.
2. Sporting Scholarships may be withdrawn if a student does not maintain their sporting commitments or if they fail to achieve standards set by Academy Directors.
3. The decision to award scholarships is made by a scholarship committee drawn from the academic staff of the school.
4.  The school’s decisions are final and non-negotiable.
5. All matters relating to scholarships will remain totally confidential at all times between the school and individual recipients. Any discussion of information or benefits to a third party may result in the scholarship being cancelled.
6. Poor conduct or the need for disciplinary action may lead to the withdrawal of a scholarship.
7. Early leave for holidays or late arrivals back after holidays are not permitted and if this is taken scholarships may be withdrawn.
8. Boarding scholarships are not available to students if their parents are residing or working in Phuket.
9. Scholarships are reviewed yearly.
10. Sibling discounts are not available if a student is on a scholarship.

• The correct visa must be obtained and the school will assist students in maintaining this visa. [Non-Immigrant Ed visa must be obtained before coming to BISP. Support documents will be provided by the school prior to visiting a Thai embassy].
• All students in Boarding must obtain Medical insurance prior to arrival or should request insurance from the Admissions staff.
• Any costs or fees not explicitly included in the scholarship offer, are to be paid promptly by the family.

A family cannot receive both a scholarship award and a sibling discount in the same year.

• If a family is in receipt of sibling discounts and a student from that family receives the offer of a partial scholarship the family must decide which offer to take for the duration of the scholarship.
•  If the family chooses to keep the sibling discounts, the offer of a scholarship will be acknowledged in writing to the family and a record placed on the student file, but there will be no further fee discount made to the family.
• If the scholarship is accepted but is of limited duration, the sibling discount will be fully restored upon termination of the award.
• Under no circumstances will sibling discounts be back-dated.

In the event of the above situation arising, it is the wishes of the family that will be the determining factor.
