3 international schools inspiring a globalised generation
June 25, 2023
International schools make for an excellent choice because the advantages your child will receive extend far beyond the boundaries of a classroom. One of them is being part of a community with many backgrounds and perspectives represented. By spending their formative years surrounded by new cultures, languages, and views, they’re prompted to scrutinise facts, think deeper, and forge their own opinions.
As graduates, they stand out. With experience embracing all sorts of views and respecting others who do not look like them, they find their footing easily in any country. Parents can be assured that international schools — the best of which offer vigorous academics, a wide swath of co-curricular activities and state-of-the-art facilities — would fully equip their children with the know-how and skills to thrive in any setting and region.
Here’s a list of three international schools in Asia with both diverse campuses and limitless possibilities:

RBIS International School
A healthy and environmentally conscious community where close to 200 students have outstanding opportunities to thrive — that’s RBIS International School. It’s an environment where students can be nurtured and excel. Here, students learn within and beyond classrooms. RBIS International School is a member of Round Square, a global network of schools in 50 countries that connect and collaborate to offer world-class programmes and experiences that develop global competence, character, and confidence. The school’s vast array of extracurricular activities, clubs, and leadership programmes do just that. By joining, students not only explore their interests and develop their talents, but they build essential life skills too.
These experiences pair well with RBIS’s curriculum that’s heavily based on the British model and delivered within an international context. Secondary school starts with a pre-IGCSE programme in Year 9 which prepares students well before taking on the IGCSE in Years 10 and 11 and, later, A Levels, BTEC or high school diploma — whichever is best suited for the student.
At every stage of their RBIS journey, the school caters for advanced learners with an accelerated programme and provides extra support should any student need it. Attentive and dedicated, teachers here know each student well, allowing them to step in with caring expertise at the right time.
A robust college and university placement support system helps students identify their career paths, prepare for standardised tests, and secure admission into prestigious institutions worldwide. While many graduates head to their first-choice colleges and universities, what’s perhaps more profound is how RBIS graduates are not just ready for college but for the world, as can be seen in their poised and polite character.
