Patumwan Demonstration School (Thai: โรงเรียนสาธิตมหาวิทยาลัยศรีนครินทรวิโรฒ ปทุมวัน), commonly known as Satit Patumwan, is a Public Secondary school in downtown Bangkok, Thailand. It admits secondary students (mathayom 1–6, equivalent to grades 7–12 or high school). The school entrance examination is regarded as one of the most competitive exam at the Mathayom 1 level. With its excellency in the academics level and the extracurricular levels, Satit Patumwan is renowned as one of the country's leading secondary school, particularly in the junior sector (mathayom 1-3).
Patumwan Demonstration School's campus is adjacent to Chulalongkorn University and Triam Udom Suksa School on Henri Dunant Road, Pathum Wan District in the heart of the city's commercial district.
Education
The school's Mathayom 1-6 students comprise 50 classes; 38 regular program classes and 12 in the English program. It accepts regular admission to mathayom 1 and 4. In the junior years (mathayom 1-3) the syllabus is uniform for all the students, but in the senior years (mathayom 4-6) the school's syllabus is divided into four programs with different subjects:
- Science–Mathematics
- Mathematics-Arts (English)
- Mathematics-Arts (German/French)
- Arts–Mathematics (English)*
The difference between the science–mathematics and the art programs is that art programs do not include science subjects in the syllabus. The program is focused on the study of liberal arts. Each student has a choice of foreign language, but the science–mathematics student has English as the only language option. Programs are chosen by the student entering mathayom 4 and can't be changed until graduation. The programs are aimed to aid the students during their university periods, even in the stage of entrance preparation.
English Program (EPTS)
Patumwan Demonstration School has an English program, established in 1997, teaching most core subjects in English language called the EPTS (English Program for Talented Students). The EPTS program is available to all grades and must be chosen prior to admission. It has two classes at each grade, with around 36 students a class. The program is fully equipped with the best educational facilities: it has its own well equipped science laboratory, computer lab and all English library.
