The Staff at Buds Phuket
We have a very low ratio of children to staff to children. This insures that in both the Nursery and the Kindergarten your child is always closely supervised and encouraged in their studies and their behavior. Our classes are limited to 12 children per class and we maintain a 3 to 1 student to staff ratio to maximize the child’s learning experience and to insure your children’s safety.
Each class has an experienced native English speaking teacher with a college degree as well as a Thai teaching assistant. We employ four experienced assistant teachers. They help the teachers supervise the classes and help give our children a shower after their lunch and their mid-day playtime in our spacious outdoor yard and playground. Three of our Thai assistant teachers have earned their Thai Government Nursery, Kindergarten, Pre-School teaching certificates.
All of our staff truly love children and we all enjoy working with them, especially as we see the children learn, grow and develop into more accomplished and rounded individuals.
We have found we are able to hire more qualified staff because of our Monday to Friday 7:30 to 5:00 schedule. This allows mothers more time with their own children and allows other staff to attend college courses on the weekend.
One of our teacher assistants in a trained registered nurse and our cook is a professional hotel cook. Both work with us because it allows them more time with their young children.
Our American/Dutch Thai management team has now run the school for almost three years and we have found that being surrounded by young happy and eager kids has proven to be an extremely satisfying and rewarding experience.
