International boarding at Regents International School Pattaya is a wonderful experience for children that will enhance their educational experience with us, while providing them with the opportunities required to build their confidence as people and broaden their horizons. We aim to make our boarding community a second home for students, where they feel part of a happy, caring and safe family. Boarding starts for students aged eight.
Located in the verdant green countryside away from the bustling streets of Bangkok (although close enough to visit the city) our boarders enjoy beautiful, contemporary accommodation, including air-conditioned rooms, fitness facilities, and areas to socialise with their second family. While boarding places a keen focus on further improving academic performance, we also provide exciting experiences for children at weekends, including go-karting, wakeboarding and trips to elephant sanctuaries and waterparks. In addition to these activities, children will also become culturally educated and enriched with visits to traditional arts and culture villages and the historic ruins of Ayutthaya.
A Learning Enviroment
Boarding life designed to meet your child's high expectations and focus on their learning
Our boarding houses are the ideal places to really focus on study with like-minded students and internet access, there really is every opportunity to develop independent learning skills.
Daily additional qualified teacher support, and the help of our full time boarding team and senior students will ensure academic rigour. The highest achievers in IB and IGCSE consistently come from a background of boarding and this was true. With English as the shared language boarding is also the perfect place to quickly develop conversational and writing skills. All of that, and no travelling time to get to and from home – perfect!
Caring for Your child
Every one of our boarders receive outstanding pastoral care whilst being part of a thriving community.
We value and respect our boarders, providing them with 24/7 term time care with a full structure of experienced specialist boarding staff in residence. We live in the same buildings as our boarders and are always here to support them and their parents with advice and genuine care. We get to know our boarders well – we are trustworthy and ready to give honest advice. Whether the issue is academic, emotional, social or physical our experienced team are always happy to act as mentors.
Our boarding facilities are modern, secure and comfortable and our full time nursing, security, housekeeping and catering teams will ensure that your child is kept safe and healthy
Time and Space to Grow
Our first priority at Regents is that your child feels happy in his or her boarding environment and is healthy, safe and secure at all times.
While we operate to health and safety standards laid down by British legislation, our boarding community is housed securely within the school grounds set 10km outside the city of Pattaya. This means there are no long journeys to school, there is plenty of space and fresh air, and Boarders have easy access to our extensive sporting facilities. Healthy and delicious food is always available, both from our comprehensive meal plan and as snacks within our boarding houses. A free daily laundry service is available to all Boarders.
Being a member of one of our diverse international houses allows your child the opportunity and space to grow into maturity by way of an age-appropriate journey. Respect, tolerance and responsibility are at the heart of our community and, as the children progress through the year groups, they are challenged with opportunities to become more independent. Making mistakes and learning from them is well managed within our safe and caring environment.
Introducing you to our new boarding offers for students of Regents International School Pattaya and prospective pupils. Take a moment to look at how our boarding offers could help your child to become more independent, there are a number of very flexible options for you to consider.
Primary Taster Boarding
For children in Year 3 to 6, this is their opportunity to experience a real taste of boarding life.
Join us on Friday after school and stay with us until early Saturday evening, giving you the flexibility to make plans around other commitments. Fun activities enjoyed before and after a delicious dinner, followed by a good night’s sleep in our boarding house. After breakfast on Saturday there will be another fun activity, usually off campus and including lunch. Before you collect your child at 6.00pm we will make sure that they have been fed for the evening as well.
Senior Study Boarding
They come around every year, demanding many hours of preparation and revision for our older students. Of course, they are the IB and IGCSE examinations.
We recognise the challenges that our students face as they work hard to achieve the very best that they can. Time is at a premium, and finding an appropriate and supportive place to get down to study can be a real concern.
Within our boarding community you will find a supportive and friendly group of staff and peers who are willing and able to help you to make the most of your study opportunities as you approach your examinations. Here are some of the benefits included in a boarding fee that you may like to consider:

Occasional Boarding
Your child takes advantage of our boarding provision staying at school for occasional nights (Monday to Thursday with prior arrangement). It may be to help you when you have a business appointment or an important social event, or it may be that your child wants to spend some social time with their friends.
Sleepover Club
Your child takes the chance to experience a real taste of boarding life joining us on Friday after school and staying with us until early Saturday evening giving you the flexibility to make plans around other commitments. Fun activities surround a delicious dinner, followed by a good night’s sleep in our boarding house. After breakfast on Saturday there will be a fun activity, usually off campus and including lunch. Before you collect your child at 6pm we will make sure that they have been fed for the evening too.
For additional fees – your child stays with us on Saturday night and joins our on campus activities on Sunday. All meals are provided. This option ends at 6pm on Sunday evening.
If your child then stays with us for Sunday night we will get them safely to school ready for classes on Monday morning after a tasty breakfast.
Part Time Boarding
This option offers you a balance between the demands of work and home life. It introduces independence and provides your child with a range of opportunity and experience. They can board for the regular nights that you choose between Monday and Thursday and you can be sure that we’ll take great care of them, making sure that they complete their homework as well as having a fun time. This taster of boarding is much more exciting for children than a babysitter and can give you a welcome break for a guilt free lie-in without the school run. Don’t be surprised if your child asks to join us full time!
Full Boarding
Our full boarding offers broad opportunities, confidence building activities, chances to develop leadership, a sense of community, cultural understanding and a real partnership between our School and you. Boarders live in our specialised Primary boarding house and experience a ‘home from home’ feel with their second set of parents. Our boarding team of house parents, academic support staff, housekeeping staff and nurses work together to ensure a warm, caring family atmosphere that is firmly embedded in our Primary boarding house.
