General
RBIS Rasami British International School, established in 1971, is a fully accredited (by EDT) British curriculum school, located in the heart of Bangkok. We offer quality education to children aged from 18 months until 18 years and are a small but growing school which places importance on on the success and achievement of each and every one of our students. In turn they are hard working and receptive young people who are keen to learn. Our two campuses are a mix of old and new buildings which provide the environment to encourage learning while retaining traditional Thai styles.
We pride ourselves on the high levels of professionalism shown by our staff, the quality of the care we give our students and the richness of the experiences we provide at school. Staff have the freedom to develop their practice by being creative and innovative within an encouraging, supportive and collaborative learning community.
RBIS is a busy school with staff expected to work hard, playing a full and supportive role in the development of policy, delivery of the curriculum, the extensive after school clubs on offer and the personal pastoral care we provide.
We are located in the capital city of beautiful Thailand, which is a large, bustling, cosmopolitan metropolis. However, we are situated in a quiet central suburb close to many cultural and historical attractions. Bangkok is a major hub for transportation to all areas of Thailand, Southeast Asia and further afield. Please see www.bangkok.com and www.bangkoktourist.com.
Teaching Environment
We enjoy the benefits of a diverse, lively and hardworking learning community. Continued Professional Development (CPD) has a high profile across all parts of the school. Training in areas of teaching and learning, technology and pedagogy is provided in-house by our educators, as well as a range of external providers. We are also keen to hear from and will consider supporting individuals who are considering other methods of CPD which will enhance and extend teaching, learning and our curriculum delivery.
Salary and Benefits Package
Expatriate teachers will receive a compensation package that includes the following:
- Locally competitive base salary
- Allowance structure for additional responsibilities
- Accommodation allowance scale for single or for married teachers
- Airfare allowance for teachers recruited from overseas (start and end of contract)
- International health insurance (BUPA Emerald) for teachers
- 100% tuition fee waiver for up to two eligible dependants
- Every assistance with visa, residence and other immigration requirements for employee and eligible dependants.
Although we are a small school with 200 currently on roll, we think big and are very ambitious for our children. Our young students regularly achieve top places in WEG (World Education Games), the SE Asia Tournament of Minds and competition, Word Mania and so on. Our IGCSE results are among the best in Bangkok and this year we will see our first cohort of A level students leave for university.

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.

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.
