Hands down the first choice in Bangkok for any student who intends to pursue further education and training or a career and life in the DACH countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). It's not just about learning the language but also pedagogics, values and culture. My daughter really loves her school and I never regretted the decision to enrol her here nine years ago. Location is great for those living in the eastern parts of town...but not so much for those who don't. The school community is small and quite eclectic. Never a dull moment :)

No other school in Thailand will prepare your child for life, further studies and/or a career in the "DACH" countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) like RIS Swiss Section. My daughter is really happy here and I never regretted enrolling her nine years ago. She came to learn German and stayed because of the great school community and pedagogics. I consider it a real hidden gem among the international schools in Bangkok.

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...
