ISAT Learning Journey 2026:
In the Footsteps of the Queen Mother
The ISAT Professional Learning Sub-committee is pleased to invite Thai teachers to participate in the ISAT Learning Journey 2026: “In the Footsteps of the Queen Mother”, taking place from 2–3 July 2026 in Bangkok and Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya.
This two-day professional learning experience is designed to enrich teachers’ knowledge and deepen their understanding of Thai culture, history, and royal heritage.
