Enrolment and Withdrawal

Enrolment: When a student submits an application to Panyaden, the parent or guardian is required to study the school handbook and 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. 

Placement: The placement of students is decided by the Secondary School Principal based on several factors. These factors include age, previous school records, pre-entrance assessment results and the student's abilities and needs, including English language proficiency. Special cases regarding placement will be discussed with parents and considered individually, but the final decision remains with the Secondary School Principal. Panyaden reserves the right to reassign a student at any time if it is felt that the initial placement was inappropriate. Parents will be informed, and their perspectives will be taken into consideration. 

Re-Enrolment: To secure a student’s continued place at Panyaden for the following academic year, a re-enrolment form must be completed with a paid deposit of 20,000 Baht by the end of March each academic year. This deposit is non-refundable should a student not take up the confirmed place in August but is fully adjustable against the first term fees. If returning parents decline to pay this deposit and their child’s class reaches the maximum size, their place will be offered to the parents of a student on the waiting list. 

If you require any further details regarding re-enrolment or have questions regarding the process, please contact our admissions team. 

Temporary Withdrawal: Parents/guardians of students who wish to withdraw from Panyaden temporarily must submit the temporary withdrawal form available at the Admissions Office. 

Important conditions:

1. If the student fails to resume their study within two consecutive terms from the starting of the temporary withdrawal date mentioned above, the new student's initial fees will be applied when the student returns to school. (Refer to the fee structure for the returning year)

2. Panyaden admission assessment is required upon the student's return to Panyaden. The school reserves the right to proper placement by the school. Acceptance of returning students will be subject to their academic assessment results, space availability, and any conditions agreed upon with the school's principal.

3. For students in Year 2 and above, during the period of withdrawal from school, the school may require parents to submit formal evidence of the student's studies during their absence (e.g., school report or registered homeschool documentation)

4. Parents/guardians must settle the all-outstanding balance before completing this form. The school retains the right to withhold any school documents if there is an outstanding balance.

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

6. The refundable deposit will only be returned to the student when the student withdraws; for temporary withdrawal, the deposit will be kept with the school.

*Important Remark* In the case of the family who requests a temporary withdrawal during the academic year, permissions can only be permitted through the agreement with the academic office to ensure students’ attendance reaches 80% as determined by the Ministry of Education (MoE) and as required for the Thai visa extension. Please note that the tuition fee can not be refunded.

Withdrawal Policy: Parents/guardians of students leaving Panyaden International School must complete the withdrawal form. Completion of this form is an essential part of the process of withdrawing a student and refunding policy. To receive your deposit, the admissions department must be informed in writing at least 60 days before their last day of school. The form is available at the school admissions office. This gives time for students to return all school resources and for parents to clear any outstanding charges. Once the form is completed, the accounting department will refund the deposit by cheque within 15 working days.
