The Phuket News recently reported on Lighthouse International School’s Alberta accreditation.
According to The Phuket News, Phuket’s reputation as a global destination has taken a step forward, with access to world-class education after the Government of Alberta, Canada granted Lighthouse International School the accreditation starting academic year of 2025-2026 .
The Phuket News calls this achievement a historic one, with Lighthouse International School being the first Alberta-accredited institution not only in Phuket but in the entirety of Thailand. The Alberta High School diploma is recognised by leading institutions in North America, Europe and Asia and has a similar merit and prestige as the International Baccalaureate (IB) and A-level programs. This allows students a smoother transition into higher education while being globally competitive.
Alberta curriculum will be delivered in Lighthouse’s ten-rai campus, complete with modern science laboratories, a media and innovation center, and collaborative learning spaces.
Lighthouse International School offers comprehensive programs in business and entrepreneurship, public speaking, STEM and AI through project-based learning. Lighthouse aims to help the students reach their full potential by encouraging them to take initiative, brainstorm and collaborate constructively with their peers which will hone their academic performance, leadership skills, creativity, and emotional intelligence.
Part of the Hive Group, an esteemed network of leading international schools in Macau, Guangzhou, and Phnom Phen, Lighthouse International School is supported by a global team of educators and curriculum specialists, ensuring that the quality of education is always inline with the international best practices.
The Phuket News highlights Lighthouse International School being a Cambridge International School on top of being accredited to Alberta standards, meaning that the students will be able to follow a dual academic route with an Alberta high school diploma and Cambridge’s IGCSE and A-level awards. This will help expand more of the students’ horizons, allowing them to customise their learning experience based on their strengths, interests and future academic ambitions.
The Phuket News calls this accreditation a watershed event in Phuket history of education. And with more families migrating to the island, the demands for a high-quality international education has never been higher. Lighthouse International School answers to these demands and sets a standard for regional excellence and opportunities.
For families who value an inclusive and nurturing community with small class sizes, Lighthouse International School is that beacon of light. The School prioritizes well-being along with academic achievement for a well-rounded education for their students.
