The opportunity

Parents are asking for more — than academic success.

International families are no longer comparing schools only on grades, facilities or university pathways. They are asking deeper questions: will my child be ready for the real world, know how to communicate, lead and build, understand money, AI and entrepreneurship, grow in confidence, and have visible outcomes beyond a report card? Schools that answer first will define the next generation of international education. Phuket already has a strong international ecosystem — what is still missing is a category-defining founder pathway.

Founding partnership

A small circle — of founding schools.

For the 2026 launch, NextGen will select a limited number of founding partner schools in Phuket. Founding partners receive preferential commercial terms, priority access to the first NextGen school format, co-branded positioning, teacher training options, Demo Day participation, founder access and early influence on the school partnership model. Designed for schools that want to lead, not follow.
