Plookpanya
Every Child Has a Story. We Help Them Write It.
This is our founder.
Every child deserves an education that nurtures their unique potential and prepares them to make a meaningful impact on the world.
Plookpanya was founded with the vision of creating a nurturing learning environment for the children of Korat. Inspired by the founders' dream, the school is committed to cultivating wisdom, fostering analytical and creative thinking, and developing essential problem-solving skills for everyday life.
Above all, we strive to help every child discover their true potential and grow with happiness through meaningful learning experiences.
As the world and education landscape evolved, Plookpanya grew with it. The original vision expanded into a more holistic, student-centered approach that values experiential learning, creativity, and real-world application. While teaching methods and programmes have adapted to meet modern needs, the school's core belief remains unchanged—placing students at the heart of learning and supporting them to grow with confidence, purpose, and joy.
