Network International School is a British Curriculum International School in Yangon, Myanmar. When formed in 1996 by Carole and U. Kyaing, from England and Myanmar, respectively, it was the very first of its kind in Yangon, established as a response to an increased need for secondary schools within the Yangon area. Though it began as a nursery school, it added primary education in 2002 and as of 2019, admits students through Year 13. The school year typically begins the second week of August and ends mid-June.
Network consists of an early years / primary and a secondary campus, located in Yangon's Bahan and Mayangone townships respectively.
The early years campus consists of a rooftop sports area, library, playground, IT lab, medical room, swimming pool, and basketball court, as well as a two-story building with classrooms for students aged 2âÂÂ5, and a three-story building, hosting lessons for students aged 6âÂÂ10.
The new campus (right across the street from the old building), features a football court, multi-purpose hall/basketball court, swimming pool, computer lab, science lab, library, rooftop area, medical room and a café (reserved for sixth form and staff). The new building features 3 blocks; A, B and C.

Network utilises a house system, in which students are sorted into four different houses with distinct colours upon admission:
This house system is implemented during Network's in-school academic competitions, sporting events, and its house-points reward system. Siblings attending Network are sorted into corresponding houses. There is a house trophy awarded at the end of the year for each winning house.
