Founded in 1988,\u00a0MIS has grown from a Montessori nursery into a respected Cambridge International school delivering the British curriculum to approximately 1,000 students from Early Years through Year 13.

“MIS has spent over thirty years building a school with deep roots in its community and a stellar reputation for quality,” said Gilles Mahe, Group CEO of XCL Education. “Our goal is to build on that. We bring regional scale and operational depth; MIS brings heritage, trust, and an educator community that genuinely knows its students.”<\/p>\n

By joining the XCL network MIS faculty will draw on the collective knowledge of 19 schools across four countries \u2014 a practical exchange of approaches, best practices and curriculum insight, while staff will gain access to career pathways and mobility across a network that spans four Southeast Asian markets. Underpinning both is XCL’s group-wide technology infrastructure.<\/p>\n

The integration will be led by Dr. Connie Kim, Head of School at XCL American School of Bangkok, alongside Ms. Kannika Koompairojn, Managing Director of XCL Thailand. Dr. Kim brings 28 years of international education experience spanning the USA, South Korea, Hong Kong, Vietnam, and Thailand, across three curriculum frameworks \u2014 American, British, and IB.<\/p>\n
