Regents International School Pattaya's Principal Sarah Osborne-James explains the many benefits our students receive from studying in such a culturally diverse learning community as ours.

With almost 50 different nationalities, our approach is to be inclusive and to celebrate all of the positive elements of our cultural diversity. As a result, our students are very welcoming, helping new students to settle in and make friends quickly. Our parent community is also very supportive, led by our wonderful Parent Supporters Group, helping new families to settle into our community and life in Thailand.

Many studies have shown that students who receive an international education leave school well prepared for their further studies and future workplace. In particular they often have much better development of their “soft” skills, such as time management, critical analysis and independent thinking, all of which are highly valued both at university and in the workplace. Our students will be far better prepared for their future careers with these valuable skills together with an appreciation for different cultures and the ability to communicate effectively with people from a wide variety of backgrounds.

We believe that the international education our children are receiving here at Regents opens up a world of understanding, friendships that can last a lifetime and an understanding across many cultures that will benefit your child for life.

I hope you will be able to join us for our International Day celebrations on Friday 9 February to celebrate our wonderful diversity.
