How would you rate RIS Swiss Section Deutschsprachige Schule Bangkok?
Die Schulgemeinschaft hat das Missmanagement unter Rektor Dörig satt.
RIS Swiss Section has a beautiful campus, is small, teachers are nice. Kindergarden is nice, school is simple, which is nice as well, not run like a company. That sounds good. Communication in school is poor from the management. There is no advance planning for the situation in unforeseen events like CORONA Pandemics like now (2020). The school waits for the government to announce the opening, while all online teaching methods remain as improvised as they were in place at the start. The school management does not communicate enough with parents. There is no flexibility to shorten the summer holidays while distance learning is seen as replacement of normal school even for small kids below 6 years, which is unusual for other schools. Parents are not supported enough for language training, on how to improve skills of pupils in general, because the school does not develop children, they only evaluate shortcomings. If you have a german speaking person at home, who would be ready to teach your child whenever the school is closed (due to frequent teacher trainings, workshops, excursions during! the term), helping for online training, you can consider the school. But if you send your child to that school to receive modern education and wait for support and expect to learn, how children can improve it is the wrong school.

Good international school with high standard education system. Such a lovely school. My son enjoys studying here. Students are mostly capable to continue higher education at top universities.

A good school with really motivated teachers. If you are looking for a good education in Bangkok this school is definitely one you need to consider. The classes are small and the teachers really invest a lot of time to help you kids develop.

My two daughters attended RIS for four years each. It is a high-caliber, academic-oriented international school in green, spacious surrounding. In addition, RIS provides strong support for students with special needs. I've found the school staff helpful and the parents a friendly and active bunch, both combined to make RIS a vibrant and caring community. (Also worth mentioning is that the canteen's food-center offers a good selection at reasonable prices. So much so that many parents shop for their dinner supplement here!)

My son has spent 2 years at this school. The teachers are good and very friendly. I think what definitely broke it for me, among many other things, is when the Director of the school told me in a private meeting "our first priority is the Thai student......., and the Swiss student comes second". Then they dare talking to you about students' equality! What a waste! Edit: 1 year later, my son is finally at a school that he is happy with! When he comes home, he tells me what happened and always shows me what he's learnt! I'm amazed! They listen to parents (take note "Swiss" Section) and actually teach some useful skills (baking their own birthday cakes together, instead of having mom buying one, for example)... And, most importantly, the (often very invasive) parents can't enter the classroom and they have to leave the school premises during teaching hours (That's so refreshing!!!)! I could go on and write a 3 pages long list...
