They will be prepared to support their colleagues by contributing to the development of the school as well as playing an active role in extra curricular activities.
Applicants should be flexible, confident, friendly and expert at engaging students, always ensuring they achieve the best they can.
Teachers who have a broad skill set are particularly encouraged to apply.
RBIS Rasami British International School, established in 1971, is a dynamic, caring, co-educational independent school. We provide high quality education to children aged from 18 months to 18 years and are a small but growing school (200+ NOR) which places importance on on the success and achievement of each and every student. In turn they are hard working and receptive young people who are keen to learn, respectful and well behaved. Our two campuses are a mix of old and new buildings which provide the environment to encourage learning while retaining some traditional Thai styles.
The RBIS curriculum is based on the EYFS Framework 2016, English National Curriculum in Key Stages 1 to 3 then Cambridge International GCSEs and Cambridge International AS and A2 qualifications in Sixth Form.
We are located in the capital city of 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. Take a look at www.bangkok.com and www.bangkoktourist.com.
Although we are a small school, we think big and are very ambitious for our children. Our students achieve well in international competitions and our IGCSE results are among the best in Bangkok. Our A level programme is only a year old and very small at present but we expect similarly high achievements to IGCSE once it becomes established.
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.
We are currently in the process of applying to become a Round Square school which places a high emphasis on holistic education. The successful candidate will have an appreciation of the values of Round Square.
RBIS is a busy school with staff expected to work hard, playing a full and supportive role in the delivery of the curriculum, the extensive after school clubs on offer and the personal pastoral care we provide.
Thailand is a beautiful country and Bangkok is a vibrant city where staff and their families can enjoy an excellent lifestyle with outstanding opportunities for travel during the school holidays.

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.
