Curriculum

Regent International School Pattaya uses the English National Curriculum.

One of the interesting curricula is the integration of STEAM Education, which is brought in from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Nord Anglia Education. This teaching approach is designed for 21st-century children and is popular in many countries. It is modern and aligns well with the demands of contemporary society. For parents who want their children to practice languages and have opportunities for studying abroad, Regent International School Pattaya is the answer. Additionally, the curriculum is divided by grade levels.

  • Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) focuses on activities that make children enjoy learning, stimulate curiosity, and foster creativity.
  • Primary International Primary Curriculum (IPC) emphasizes creativity and specialized skills. This curriculum is highly flexible.
  • Secondary follows the English curriculum and is divided into two stages: Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 (IGCSE). It helps children discover their interests and prepares them for the IGCSE exams (an international qualification for secondary school students from the UK).
  • Sixth Form offers two curricula:
    • 1. A-Level: In-depth study of chosen subjects to prepare for university, with more than 10 subjects to choose from.
