Parent Experience

History
Regent’s trace its origins to 1992 when Dr Virachai began with 32 rental houses in Pattaya and established The Regent’s School, Pattaya in 1995. In 1999, a Bangkok campus opened near the Thailand Cultural Centre, followed by the current Rama 9 campus in 2009 to serve Early Years and Primary students. That same year, the school entered a joint venture to start Regent’s UK in Norfolk. While Dr Virachai remains a key figure, the school is now overseen by a board and led by Principal Andy Edmonds.

Regular cooperation is emphasized to enrich pupils’ understanding of their environment and social growth.
