Academic Profile

Mahidol University International Demonstration School (MUIDS) is a co-educational secondary school for grades 10 to 12, established in 2013 under the direction of Mahidol University. MUIDS offers a robust academic program grounded in California’s Common Core State Standards and Thailand’s Basic Education Core Curriculum. This dual framework ensures every student meets internationally recognized benchmarks alongside essential Thai language, cultural, and civic education requirements. This unique blend of international and Thai approaches supports a smooth transition to an English-medium environment and an international style of learning, preparing students for university studies both in Thailand and abroad.

MUIDS is fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) for the period 2024 to 2030. Students earn both an international school diploma and a Thai high school certificate, broadening their post-secondary options and confirming their eligibility for global university admission.

Academic life at MUIDS is organized into seven 55-minute periods per day, with year-long courses that balance core subjects, Advanced Placement (AP) options, a wide selection of electives, and enriching activities like clubs and leadership development. All instruction is delivered in English, with integrated support for English Language Learners (ELLs) at every proficiency level.

The MUIDS educational philosophy is student-centered and guided by six Expected Schoolwide Learner Outcomes (ESLOs): Strategic Learners, Morally Intelligent Persons, Innovative Thinkers, Altruistic Global Citizens, Articulate Communicators and Leaders for The Future. This holistic approach not only facilitates academic achievement, but also the cultivation of well-rounded, culturally competent graduates equipped for success in the 21st century.
