Enrolment and Withdrawal

The Enrolment Process begins when a family submits an application to Panyaden. At this stage, parents or guardians are required to agree to and sign the School Terms and Conditions. This document is a legal agreement between the school and the parent or guardian, and it should be read carefully before signing.

Student Placement is determined by the school principals based on several factors, including age, previous school records, pre-entrance assessment results, and the student’s abilities and needs—such as English or Thai language proficiency. Special placement cases will be discussed with parents and considered on an individual basis; however, the final decision rests with the school principals. Panyaden reserves the right to reassign a student at any time if the initial placement is deemed inappropriate. Parents will be informed of any changes, and their perspective will be considered.

Re-enrolment: The re-enrolment process is designed to give current families priority in securing a place for the upcoming academic year. This process typically takes place in March. During this time, the school will send a re-enrolment confirmation survey via email through OpenApply. Families must complete the survey and pay a non-refundable deposit of THB 20,000 to secure their child’s place. Although this deposit is non-refundable, it will be deducted from the total school fees due in August. 

If the re-enrolment survey and deposit are not received by the deadline, the school may assume the child will not return. In this case, if the class reaches maximum capacity, the place may be offered to a student on the waiting list.

If you require further information or support with the re-enrolment process, please contact the Admissions Department.

Temporary Withdrawal Policy: Parents or guardians who wish to temporarily withdraw their child at the end of a term or academic year must submit the Temporary Withdrawal Form, available at the Admissions Office.

Important Conditions:

1. If a student does not return to school within two consecutive terms from the withdrawal date, New Student Initial Fees will apply upon re-enrolment (see the fee structure for the returning year).

2. A Panyaden admissions assessment is required upon return. Placement is subject to assessment results, availability, and any previously agreed-upon conditions with the principal.

3. For students in Year 2 and above, parents may be asked to submit formal proof of continued education during the absence (e.g., school reports or registered homeschool documentation).

4. All outstanding balances must be paid in full before completing the temporary withdrawal form. The school reserves the right to withhold documents if payments are pending.

5. During temporary withdrawal, the school cannot provide visa extension-related documents.

6. The refundable deposit will not be returned during a temporary withdrawal. It will be held by the school until a final withdrawal is confirmed.

Important Note: According to the Ministry of Education (MoE), students must meet an 80% attendance requirement for visa eligibility. Therefore, mid-year temporary withdrawals can only be approved in coordination with the Academic Office. Please note that tuition fees are non-refundable, as outlined in the Refund Policy.

Withdrawal Policy: Parents or guardians of students who are leaving Panyaden must complete the Withdrawal Form, which is available at the Admissions Office. This form is a required step for processing the student's withdrawal and refund in accordance with the Refund Policy.

To receive your refundable deposit, the Admissions Department must receive written notice at least 60 days prior to the student’s last day. This advance notice allows time to return school property and settle outstanding charges. Once the form is submitted and all obligations are fulfilled, the Accounting Department will issue a refund by cheque within 15 working days after the student’s last day at school.
