NIST International School ((タイ語:โรงเรียนนานาชาตินิสท์)) is an international school located in Watthana District, Bangkok, Thailand.〔"()." ''Bangkok Post''. Retrieved on 2 August 2015. "36 Soi Sukhumvit 15, Sukhumvit Rd., Watthana, Bangkok 10110 Thailand"〕 It was established in 1992 with support and guidance from the Bangkok-based branch of the United Nations. A full International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, NIST welcomes more than 1,500 students of over 50 nationalities. As one of the only not-for-profit international schools in Thailand, it is governed by the parent-elected NIST International School Foundation. == History == NIST opened in August, 1992 on the previous campus of International School Bangkok. The school was established with the support of the United Nations and is not tied to any national curriculum or approach.〔http://www.nist.ac.th/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Message-from-Under-Secretary-General.pdf〕 Originally comprising just over 500 students, it has since grown to more than 1,500. NIST was authorized to offer the IB Diploma Programme in 1993 and the IB Middle Years Programme in 1996. In 1997 it saw off its first group of graduates, and in 1998 it received dual accreditation through the Council of International Schools〔http://www.cois.org/page.cfm?p=525〕 and New England Association of Schools and Colleges. NIST is also accredited by Thailand's Office for National Education Standards and Quality Assessment. With the addition of the IB Primary Years Programme in 1999, it became the first school in Thailand to offer all three IB programmes.〔http://www.ibo.org/school/000700/〕 NIST is currently operated by a non-profit organization, the NIST International School Foundation (NIST Foundation). The first chair of the NIST Foundation, Mechai Viravaidya, resigned from the position in May, 2002, and the current chair is Pridiyathorn Devakula. The NIST Foundation chooses a board of directors, elected from the parent body, and their primary task is to select the Head of School. The current Head of School, James MacDonald, joined NIST for the 2013-2014 school year. The NIST Parent-Teacher Association (NIPTA), established in 1998, also plays a role the school's development.
