OUR ACCREDITATIONSThe Regent’s International School, Bangkok is an IB World Schools (www.ibo.org) and is fully accredited by the Council of International Schools (CIS) (www.cois.org). The school is a member of The International Schools Association, Thailand (ISAT) (www.isat.or.th) and Thailand International Schools Activities Committee (TISAC). The school is also a member of CIS and of the Federation of British International Schools in South East Asia (FOBISSEA) (www.fobissea.org) and are also recognized by the Diplomatic Corps in Thailand for their children.

Regent’s is a Global Member of the prestigious Round Square Association, with its President, HM King Constantine and HRH Prince Andrew, Board Member, as patrons (www.roundsquare.org). All 80 Round Square schools around the world believe it is their obligation to produce well rounded leaders for our future global community. As Round Square schools, they instill six values at the heart of what their students do, both within and beyond the classroom. These six values are known as the ‘Six Pillars’; taken in the ‘right’ order, their first letters memorably and appropriately spell out the acronym ‘IDEALS’, which stands respectively for International awareness, Democracy, Environmental responsibility, Adventure, Leadership and Service to others. Our sense of achievement as a school comes from translating these IDEALS into practical realities as part of the curriculum.

OUR SUCCESSWe believe the key to our success lies in the quality of our teaching staff and their commitment to being excellent role models for all students. All our main teachers possess Qualified Teacher Status (‘QTS’). We place top priority on the recruitment of such teachers. Apart from foreign language teachers, all our teaching staffs are native English speakers and nearly 90% are British. Oxford, Cambridge, London School of Economics, Imperial College London, University College London, the Royal College of Music London, Stanford, MIT, Wharton (U of Penn), UC Berkeley, the National University of Singapore and Seoul National University are among the prestigious universities which have offered places to our recent graduates (in some cases with full scholarships).

OUR ADMISSIONS POLICYThe Regent’s International School, Bangkok, provides a high quality education to all of our students. Our admission requirements are designed to ensure that we meet this objective.

We welcome applications for enrolment at anytime during the school year, from children from a broad range of cultural and educational backgrounds. We have an inclusive admissions policy, so are happy to consider those with particular learning needs. Our admissions process is designed to give us the opportunity to ensure that each student is able to access the whole curriculum, and that we can meet their individual needs.

To facilitate this, each student is invited to an assessment day. The format of this assessment varies with the year group that is applied for, and is by appointment only. Students must not arrive at school for an assessment without prior arrangement.

We always try to provide support for students whose first language is not English. Please bear in mind that extra fees are payable for this support (EAL/EU in Primary and ELD/IELD in Secondary). By making an application for enrolment, you are agreeing to pay for this support if the school’s assessment procedures indicate that it is necessary.

If you wish to visit the school, you can do so by appointment and at a time that is convenient for you. To make an appointment, please contact our Admissions Manager by emailing admissions-bkk@regents.ac.th or calling +66 (0)2957-5777 ext 202. You will also be able to get a feel for the vibrant nature of the school by exploring our website further.

OUR ADMISSIONS PROCEDUREIn most cases, the Admissions Procedure is as follows:

1. Contact the school by e mail or telephone to arrange an appointment to visit the school.2. Visit our school and tour the premises with our Admissions Staff.3. Please make an appointment with the Admissions Staff at least 2 days prior to an Assessment Day. The result of the assessment will be announced within 2 days at most, more often on the same day. No school uniform is required at this stage. • Early Year (Pre-Nursery, Nursery, and Reception) will stay in the appropriate class/year level for

approximately 1-2 hours as a trial day. This appointment includes a taster classroom session to ensure that your child is ready to start school – there is no formal testing.

• Primary candidates (Y1-Y6) will spend two days with the appropriate class/year level from 8.00am - 2.30pm for the assessment process. On these Trial Days, parents/guardians will leave their child/ren with us for the whole period of time as a normal school day.

• Secondary candidates (Year 7+) will be tested in Mathematics, English and Non-Verbal Reasoning (also Science for Year 12 candidates). The candidates will have an interview with a Senior member of staff who shall provide direct feedback to parents. The whole process will take upto 4 hours.

• A Boarding Placement (Year 4+) the applicant will be interviewed by one of our Boarding team. 4. Prior to the Trial/Assessment date, Application Form, Health Information, Conduct Pledge (Y7+ only) and relevant documentation should be submitted to the Admissions office as detailed:
