Astra Academy International School

Astra Academy International School, situated in Bangkok, Thailand, commenced operations in October 2021, catering to approximately 80 students spanning Year 1 to Year 10, following the English National Curriculum. With ambitious plans for expansion in the next three years, aiming to reach around 500 students and encompassing Years 11 to 13, the school prioritized establishing a robust foundation for its administrative processes. Head of School, David Wakefield, leveraging his experience in opening schools, recognized the importance of implementing a comprehensive Student Information System (SIS) from the outset. Instead of relying on traditional spreadsheets, the school opted for a more advanced solution. Astra Academy chose Education Horizons' Zunia student information system as the ideal platform to support its growth. Zunia, a cloud-native solution hosted on the AWS platform, provides the school with top-tier security for its data. This technology allows seamless accessibility from any device, at any location, and at any time. One of the key features of Zunia is its ability to centralize all student data onto a single platform. This ensures that the school maintains a single source of truth, facilitating accurate and up-to-date information for efficient management. Overall, the implementation of Zunia reflects the school's commitment to a technologically advanced and secure infrastructure to support its current operations and future expansion.
