Razzell,

I never really looked at it due to the lack of BTS/MRT.  If communing to CBD (as I do), I would avoid it.

For me, key points on location include – 1. immediate access to BTS/MRT, and 2. a maximum 40 minutes commute to my office. This rather limits where I can live and means I have to pay more for comfort, but it’s worth it to me to save time commuting.

I'm actually looking for a moo baan with exactly the same points, does anyone knows any moo baan in a decent location and with a near access to BTS/MRT, perhaps the new line that goes to the airport?

Yes I ended up choosing Garden International school.
So far so happy and my daughter is very happy in there.
Distance was a major fact in our decision as traffic is mad early morning in this area.

Wells offered me a major discount but I can't really trust a school where the principal send her children somewhere else (at least she should have not told me that).

Anyone is sending his child to Garden International School in Sathorn or has any feedback to share?

I have to laugh. I pay over 100,000 THB per year to send my 4 year old to "international" kindergarten. 90% of her classes are in Thai, which I knew from the start and she has 1 English class per week, but she has learned nothing in that class. The only English she learns is through me on weekends and after school.
Last month one of her teachers told my wife that my daughter doesn't pay ettention in class...in fact she stated that she is the only student in the class that does not pay attention and that she needs us, as parents to teach her at home because my daughter won't listen to them. This comment I find absolutely staggering in its stupidity. Where to start?? How many farken 4 year olds pay attention? A quick search on Google and paediatricians state that 4 year olds have an attention span of about 15 minutes. So I am paying these clowns 100k for this level of lazy, ignorant, thick-headed education. It is a pity that I had just paid fees for the term as I would have moved her to another school had I been pre-warned.

Which kindergarden is that?
