History
Harrow International School was founded in 1998 and first operated as a language school at Riverine Place Condo. The first headmaster was Mr Stuart Morris, who had previously been headmaster of a school in Malaysia. Mr Morris oversaw a period of growth as the school's enrolment rose to over 700 students in 2002.
Dr J Mark Hensman, previously a headmaster in his native New Zealand, took over as headmaster and oversaw the school's relocation to a purpose-built campus at Don Mueang, near Don Mueang Airport, in 2003. The new 35-acre campus included new facilities, sports fields and boarding houses, and allowed the school enrolment to increase to 1,160. During his tenure, the iconic boater and the House system were introduced, strengthening ties to the original Harrow School.
Beginning in 2013, Michael Farley, Head Master between 2012 and 2018, launched a 5-year redevelopment programme.Шаблон:Fact
