High demand for parent workshops: ten more scheduled for this year

One of our key priorities for this year has been to invest lots of time and energy in explaining to parents what 'highest quality learning' means here at Regents International School Pattaya: and it has been really well-received.

High demand for parent workshops: ten more scheduled for this year The next round of Parent Workshops is coming up - have you booked your place?

Over the past five months, we have run a series of morning workshops, where our most experienced teachers and school leaders have taken the time to demonstrate both how we teach at Regents and – just as importantly – why we teach in that way. The workshops are conducted in several different languages, using bi-lingual staff and parent volunteers – which is part of the reason why the sessions prove to be so well-attended.

We are delighted to have scheduled 10 more for the remainder of this academic year. Unless otherwise stated, all workshops will take place from 08.45 to 09.30 in Room 212 of the Early Primary Building. Everyone is welcome (and if you are concerned that your language group won’t be covered, please contact Sara Berenguer for more information Sara.Berenguer@regents-pattaya.co.th ).
