Rugby School Thailand (RST) is a co-educational, international school for day and boarding students aged 2-18. The School follows the British curriculum with students taking IGCSE and A Level examinations.

The School has an 80-acre state-of-the-art campus that promotes a healthy active student lifestyle. Academic excellence lies at the heart of the experience, but this is underpinned by the School’s ethos ‘The Whole Person, The Whole Point’. It is RST’s aim to improve the outcome of every student in its care. Smaller classes and longer days integrate homework, sport and an award-winning enrichment programme to nurture students into resilient, reflective, versatile, globally-minded, thinkers and collaborators.

These core philosophies are also embedded into the School’s vibrant boarding life, where families can choose from part, weekly or full boarding. During accreditation in 2021, COBIS commended Rugby School Thailand for its “truly exceptional” boarding school experience. Boarding students can make the most of everything RST has to offer, from expert staff and world-class facilities, through to its award-winning enrichment and wellbeing provision. 

The School has three purpose-built boarding houses: one mixed Prep School house for boarders in Years 7 & 8 (boys and girls are separated by floors), and two Senior School houses (one for boys and one for girls). The largest dormitories have four to six beds, and the oldest boarding students have single rooms with ensuite bathrooms. Each boarding house has common rooms, recreational facilities, study rooms, music rooms and a well-equipped kitchen.

RST is part of the prestigious Rugby Group, which has over 450 years of British boarding school heritage and, unlike many other international schools, a genuine connection to its parent school; they have a shared vision and ethos, as well as a shared board of governors.
