Vision

Yangon Academy empowers each student to reach their full potential.

Mission

Yangon Academy is a dynamic international school that provides a challenging K-12, American-based education which prepares our students for excellence in university and life. Our community inspires students to love learning and to contribute positively within a diverse and ever-changing world.Yangon Academy International School is a privately-held, Pre-Nursery through Grade Twelve international school located in Yangon’s Bahan Township. The School, established in 2004, is housed on two campuses – the elementary school campus for Pre-Nursery through Grade 5 students, and the secondary school campus for Grade 6 through Grade 12 students. Utilizing an American curriculum with English as the primary language of instruction, Yangon Academy strives to educate the whole child with the goal of developing excellent students today and exemplary leaders tomorrow.

The School further distinguishes itself by providing an affordable, high-quality education to the children of Myanmar as well as to children of the city’s expanding expatriate community. Moreover, Yangon Academy is a school that embraces Myanmar history and culture while offering a rigorous 21st Century, American-based program of study.

This dynamic approach to learning is best reflected in the composition of its faculty and staff. All grade-levels are staffed by both experienced international teachers, mainly from the U.S. and Canada, and by Myanmar faculty and teaching assistants. Collaborating together as a team of dedicated educators our faculty and staff provide each Yangon Academy student with an outstanding level of personal care and intellectual challenge. In return, our motivated and respectful students inspire the faculty every day; and, together, the faculty and students of Yangon Academy, continually create a vibrant community of learners and leaders.
