School History:

Regents International School Pattaya is a well-established school, which first opened its doors to students in 1994. Over the years it has developed into one of the foremost international schools in South East Asia and is today a member of the world-wide family of Nord Anglia Education premium international schools.

The initial enrollment of just 40 students in 1994 quickly grew and within five years Regents International School Pattaya had developed from a day school to a boarding and day school with a student body of over 400. The school became a member of the Federation of British International Schools in South East Asia (FOBISIA) in 2000 and in 2001 was inaugurated into the Round Square organisation of worldwide schools. It has been authorised to offer the International Baccalaureate Diploma since 2002.

Today, it is a school of around 1,000 students spread across the Early Primary (Kindergarten), Primary (Elementary) and Secondary (Middle & High School) ages. As student numbers have continued to grow, the school campus has been developed with the addition of a wide range of excellent academic, extra-curricular and boarding facilities.

We joined the Nord Anglia Education family of schools in August 2012, and the school has blossomed since then with Sarah Osborne-James now in place as the current School Principal. Membership of the Nord Anglia Education family of 68 premium international schools has ensured a most promising future for the school and, most importantly, its students.
