The Chemistry curriculum includes atomic theory, the periodic table, bonding types and material properties, chemical reactions, quantitative work, analytical processes, foundational organic chemistry, and basic energy concepts.
Applicants must be native English speakers from approved countries, possess at least a four-year degree in a science-related field, and hold a TEFL certificate.

The school provides a supportive environment with modern facilities, ongoing support, and professional development opportunities. The salary starts at 35,000 THB per month, with annual incremental increases.
