Academic Excellence

School Curriculum
Rugby School Thailand follows the much-admired British curriculum and British private boarding school model, meaning your child can reap the rewards of smaller class sizes and longer days that incorporate sport and co-curricular activities. Academic excellence lies at the heart of Rugby School, but our ‘whole person’ approach and wide subject options encompasses so much more.
