Rugby School Thailand (RST), a co-educational day and boarding international School set in 80 acres of glorious Thai countryside south of Bangkok, opened in September 2017 with 110 students. The School has now grown to over 1,100 students and attracts students from all over Thailand and South East Asia.
The structure, School day and ethos of RST are based upon the British Independent School model, rather than the standard international school model. As such, the School has three sections: Pre-Prep (2-6 year olds), Prep (7 – 12 year olds) and Senior (13 – 18 year olds). Rugby School Thailand is the first overseas sister school of Rugby School UK, one of the most prestigious and well-known schools in the UK. Rugby School Thailand shares Rugby School UK’s DNA in every important respect. It is unique.
The health, safety and well-being of young people are of paramount importance to all the adults who work at Rugby School Thailand. Children have the right to protection, regardless of age, gender, race, culture, sexual orientation, or disability. They have a right to be safe in our School. Members of staff in the School have a legal and moral obligation to safeguard and promote the welfare of the students, taking all reasonable steps to protect them from harm whether from physical injury, abuse, neglect, emotional harm or from anything that interferes with their general development.
The Computer Science department
The Senior School Computer Science department currently consists of two dedicated members of staff that teach from Year 9 to 13. The department is experiencing a rise in popularity among students, reflecting the growing interest in the field. The department runs the Cambridge IGCSE and A Level specifications, providing a comprehensive and forward-thinking curriculum in the Prep School and Year 9 to prepare students for the challenges of the digital era.
Housed in two well-resourced computer classrooms, the department is not only committed to academic excellence but also to hands-on, practical learning experiences. The department runs a robotics program utilising VEX robots, and candidates with an interest in contributing to our vibrant co-curricular activities, particularly in the realm of robotics would be at an advantage. At the heart of the department lies a commitment to teaching and learning and excellence in the classroom. With a focus on supporting all students to achieve their potential, the department has a track record of excellent results and value added scores.
Additionally, the department extends its offerings to include the A Level Digital Media and Design course, presenting a unique opportunity for the right candidate to broaden their skill set and actively contribute to its delivery.
