The Senior School:
The Senior School academic curriculum draws from the best of the UK National Curriculum. Each department offers either GCSE or IGCSE courses in E and D Block (Years 10 and 11). In the Sixth Form, Rugby School Thailand students study A Level courses. There are currently around 350 in the Senior section of the School. Rugby School Thailand has a wide variety of Enrichment activities.
The Senior School buildings are designed to offer an outstanding learning environment. The main buildings include a teaching block; state-of-the-art Design and Technology and Art and Design studios; ICT suites; Drama studios; a Black Box theatre; Music classrooms; seventeen music practice rooms; a recording studio; and a dance studio. A separate Science Centre contains 13 laboratories, and a lecture theatre. The Webb Ellis Centre houses both 50m and 25m swimming pools plus a warm up pool; an air-conditioned basketball stadium; a fitness suite; gymnasium; and two PE classrooms. Floodlit football fields and tennis courts complete the sports facilities. The Sixth Form Centre provides a hub for Year 12 and 13 students as they pursue independent and group study as they complete their A Levels.
The Science Department:
The Sciences are taught in the School’s purpose-built Science centre with excellent facilities. The members of the faculty work closely together, with an emphasis on sharing of good practice between and within the science subjects.
F Block (Year 9) students follow a course which is designed by the department. Students gain further experience of working in a laboratory, alongside building the skills and foundations of the content knowledge that are required for the IGCSE course. F Block students study 8 periods (70-minute lessons) per two-week cycle across the three sciences. In D and E Blocks (Years 10 and 11), students take CIE IGCSEs in either Chemistry, Biology and Physics or Coordinated Science, depending on academic capability and interest, with 4 periods per science per two-week cycle. The sciences are popular Sixth Form options, and the Biology department follows the Cambridge International A-level specification.
There are currently many co-curricular activities run by the Science Department as part of the co-curricular program, in line with our fundamental philosophy to stretch, inspire learning and develop our students’ scientific skills and thinking. Some of these include the RST Science Magazine, the Biology Enrichment club and the ‘Effective study skills in science’ club, to name a few. Students also enter and achieve highly in competitions such as the Biology Olympiad and Biology Challenge, run by the BBO, as well as the Cambridge Science competition. In addition, there are numerous study clubs and clinics that students can attend to receive extra support. Teachers of Science will be expected to promote interest and provide support in the sciences beyond the formal curriculum.
This role will be line-managed by the Head of Biology.
