TLDR : Answer Summary
Several commenters recommend specific international schools in Thailand, such as British International School and Regents International School. Potential concerns include the city of residence as choosing the right school can be challenging depending on the location. Factors like the educational system (British or American) and commuting distance are important considerations for families. Many agree that good schools in Thailand can be expensive, but quality varies.

It is hard enough narrowing down which school when you pick a city let alone leaving it open to the whole country. There are search engines out there to compare them. The good ones are ALL expensive but you get what you pay for (to some extent. I’ve heard there are expensive crappy ones… but no cheap great ones). I knew I wanted Bangkok cause I didn’t want to have to drive. Do you want American system? British? In English or with some other language (Thai or European or Asian languages). People say st least in Bangkok you need to live near the school which is def easier. I somewhat envy the kids in my building who are going to school right up the street instead of commuting across town on bts like my kids. But my kids are very happy at their school (twins year 8)

Thank you for the great advice. My husband will fly over and check out some of the schools. Thanks everyone for the suggestions and knowledge.

my kids are at year eight at patana and liking it despite changing over from the US system to British. Also, are you talking about moving now or for the new year? Many schools fill up quickly and may not have spaces at this point in time for this year. You may want to reach out to the various schools you’re considering and ask them about applications and availability , etc..

Hi yeah these are probably the 2 best schools Here in Phuket there are a few other high standards international schools which will be slightly cheaper but probably Circa 350,000++ ....

I'll try to find a video Canadian chap did with website & league table prices etc...

Yeah private international schools aren't cheap here...

that's about mid-range. I've seen people talk about 200,000 per year up to 800,000 per year depending on the school.
