About RBIS International School

A great teaching opportunity awaits you in Thailand.

RBIS Bangkok is an academically non-selective, all-age and co-educational day school located close to the heart of one of the world’s greatest cities.

Our unique character has evolved to meet the needs of the community we serve and with children at the heart of everything we do, as RBIS fast approaches the celebration of a golden jubilee, the school has had time to mature in to a very special place to learn and grow.

We welcome amazing students and educators and offer a holistic education with learning pathways from EYFS through to A level examinations and BTEC qualifications and an established record of both high academic standards and personal development.

As teachers we work with students with a strong sense of personal identity and very positive teamwork abilities. RBIS students are confident learners, they are open minded thinking about their actions and making good choices as contributors to the international community we are all part of. The international thinking of students and staff creates a diverse and exciting learning environment.

Our smaller class sizes mean more individual attention for each student and provide an ideal atmosphere for friendships to grow.

The school provides an intensive but supportive EAL programme to enable students to develop the English language skills in order to access all aspects of our broad and balanced curriculum.

What’s in our future?

Well - we hope you may be.

In the year of celebrations for our golden jubilee we are in an exciting period of our history.

New 6th Form educational developments have brought BTEC opportunities to enhance our traditional A levels option choices. Exciting investment in new facilities on both of our school sites will complement our existing city-garden environment and bring even better learning opportunities to the community.

RBIS offers a welcoming, inclusive and stimulating place to work. If you want to be part of our team you will need to be passionate about teaching and learning and knowledgeable about the factors that affect great learning.

Working at RBIS gives you all of the advantages of the fantastic environment of Bangkok city.  As a school we are at the center of what many consider to be a perfect place to live; providing a foreigner-friendly climate, a healthier lifestyle and relieving your stress. The city offers one of the world’s leading food scenes, a thriving shopping hub and a growing art scene on your doorstep and superb travel opportunities to many exciting places close by. As a top destination for people from all over the globe this is a great place to make new friends, to be welcomed by your professional colleagues in school, and by local Thai people.

As you consider a life-changing career move you may think of our city for its beautiful temples, glorious street food or vibrant culture and night life; but time spent at RBIS Bangkok is all about learning experiences, both for our students and for our teaching team. So here are some little known facts for you to share with family and friends as you discuss this exciting opportunity . . .

The name Bangkok is only used by foreigners. Locals will call the capital city of Thailand “Krung Thep” which can literally be translated as “City of Angels”. But this is still not the official name of Bangkok. This city has a tongueful name of “Krungthepmahanakhon Amonrattanakosin Mahintharayutthaya Mahadilokphop Noppharatratchathaniburirom Udomratchaniwetmamahasathan Amonphimanawatansathit Sakkathattiyawitsa nukamprasit” (the longest capital city name in the world!)

Don’t be surprised if you are on the streets of the city and everyone just stands up or stops walking. At 8.00 a.m. and 6 p.m. the National Anthem is the soundtrack to Bangkok. Every Thai citizen will stand and pay respect to the national Anthem.

If all of this excites you and you want to learn more then please apply to RBIS Bangkok. We would love to talk to you.

What people say about us

I was lucky enough to attend one of the best International school in Thailand. I have studied in Bilingual school before I decided to move to the International school. I was so nervous and terrified that I might not get along with new classmates or teachers, as well as my English language was not quite strong at that moment. After I first walked in, the entire new world was surprising me. I fell in love with everything about RBIS International School.There was a completely unique atmosphere on campus. From move-in day on, RBIS felt like home. When I first arrived the campus, the orientation committee was beyond enthusiastic and everyone was smiling. Asking someone a question was not intimidating, it was encouraged. The campus building might not as big as compared to other high schools, but I was so sure that it never made me bored. I felt like there was always something interesting going on at RBIS. The “scary teacher” stereotype did not exist here, they were friendly and extremely fun. At a larger school, the teacher would not be notice if one of the student was not in the class. Here, an absence was recognised with concern. I truly, deeply thank you my high school for shaping me into the person I am today. Each and every experience has changed my life for the better, and I do not know what I would do without attending this particular high school. One of my favourite aspects of RBIS was how acceptable they were of whatever I wanted to do after graduating. I aimed to attend Faculty of architecture, Chulalongkorn University, and I made it! This would leave credit to all incredible teachers who did everything to help me achieve my goal. I feel incredibly blessed to have known and interacted with such a positive and powerful individual who truly wanted the best for each student. One of my teacher has said, “as long as you set a goal you wanted to achieve, you were doing something right with your future, no matter what it may be. Thank you RBIS International school. Stay gold.

I spent more than 10 years at RBIS and I thoroughly enjoyed learning there. The smaller, intimate environment really pushed me to thrive and think carefully about what I wanted to do. After RBIS, I have since finished my A Levels. I am currently studying English Literature at the University of Birmingham. It is safe to say that RBIS was certainly a good starting point for my future.

The time I spent at RBIS is definitely full of fun experiences and memories. What I remember most fondly though, is how I had the chance to get to know pretty much everyone in the school; from the seniors and juniors to the teachers and staffs, the school’s smaller size meant there was a chance to know everyone. There are other experiences too of course. I can still picture the football tournaments I went through 7th to 9th grade quite vividly and on a more academic end, I can still remember the fun and wonder of the chemistry experiments in the lab. These are some of the ones that come to mind – there are actually so many great experiences that it is quite hard to choose as there were so many fulfilling and enjoyable moments.

“We have just moved from Luxembourg and we were quite worried about moving to the new school and the new country. After a few days, he came back home from school and saying that this is the best school that I have ever been to.”

- Mrs Yupa Kaewsai, Parent of Louis Natthakon Fox

“RBIS is a very nice environment for children and teenagers looking for a top-level International Education. The atmosphere in both campuses is excellent and teachers, principals and staff are friendly and very helpful. I could not imagine a better school for my 12 years old daughter.”

- Mr Stefano Cultrera Father of Lucia Sara Cultrera (Lucy), General Manager Marketing Asia Business Line Flat Rolled Products, Aurubis

“As a parenthood, we only want to find the best school for our beloved daughter. The best in our meaning may be different to others. It isn’t the school which full of rewards or the achievement awards we want, but just the school which our daughter never fears or refuses when she gets up at every early morning. Four years at RBIS until now, not only our daughter’s face is full of smile and happiness but her capabilities also grow up. We are deeply grateful to be here, RBIS. Thank you very much.”
