In Brief
Shrewsbury International School Bangkok operates two campuses offering British curriculum education, with the Riverside campus serving as the main secondary school and the newer City campus handling primary years. Teachers describe it as one of Bangkok's better British schools with competitive packages, though some note heavy workloads and mixed experiences with work-life balance.
The school consists of two distinct campuses: the established Riverside campus on Charoenkrung Road serving secondary students with boarding options, and the City campus in Huai Khwang district opened in 2018 for primary years 1-6. The City campus offers guaranteed progression to Riverside for secondary education, creating a clear pathway through the British system. With fees ranging from THB 635,100 to over 1 million annually, Shrewsbury positions itself in Bangkok's premium international school market alongside institutions like Harrow and Brighton College.
Teacher discussions reveal Shrewsbury as having a solid reputation among Bangkok's British curriculum schools, with competitive compensation packages that allow for comfortable expatriate living. The school serves nearly 2,000 students across both campuses with a high proportion of Thai students from affluent families, creating an academically focused environment. However, some teachers note concerns about work-life balance, with reports of heavy teaching loads and limited outdoor play space at certain campuses, particularly for younger children.
