The Way of Life at Panyaden International School

Rather than an education system which is geared to testing and to competition and to preparing people for a particular livelihood, the emphasis of Buddhist education is on teaching children how to learn, how to enjoy learning, to love wisdom for its own sake. It teaches them the emotional maturity enabling them to make use of their knowledge to create a happy life for themselves and their family and to contribute positively to the society in which they live. It in no way compromises on the work of preparing children to make a good livelihood, but it lets them see that life is deeper and richer than working in order to consume.

Welcome to Panyaden International School, where our educational approach is deeply rooted in Buddhist principles. We believe that education should go beyond mere academic learning, and strive to develop the knowledge, skills, and disposition necessary for our students to become lifelong learners who understand the habits for happiness and well-being.

Drawing inspiration from Buddhist culture and values, our school emphasises not only the acquisition of knowledge but also the cultivation of a way of life. We believe that by incorporating Buddhist principles into our daily practices, we can create an environment that fosters personal growth and a deep love for learning.

At Panyaden, we recognize that the journey of education is not limited to the classroom. It extends to the way we live and interact with others. We aim to develop within our students the understanding and application of practices that promote harmony, compassion, and mindfulness in their relationships and actions. By nurturing these qualities, we strive to equip our students with the tools they need to navigate the complexities of the world with wisdom and empathy.

We firmly believe that the partnership between parents, teachers, and students is crucial in achieving our educational goals. It is through harmonious collaboration that we can create an environment conducive to learning, growth, and self-development. As a community, we share the common aspiration of being lifelong learners and becoming positive role models for one another.

At Panyaden International School, we are committed to providing a holistic education that encompasses not only academic excellence but also the development of character and a deep understanding of the practices for happiness and well-being. Join us on this transformative journey as we cultivate knowledge, skills, and a way of life that will empower our students to thrive in an ever-changing world.
