Regent International School is a school that your child and you will love, and one where they will realise more than they ever thought was possible. Powered by our unique ‘Signature Programmes,’ we are a character-building and ambitiously innovative school with an inspirational, engaging, and dynamic learning environment at the core. Our education delivery is highly ambitious and innovative using a Project-based Learning combined with our STEAM programme; augmented by a next-generation AI learning platform to enable self-paced problem solving; an inspirational Creative & Performing Arts programme; and a rich variety of Extracurricular activities to excite, inspire and challenge our curious and open-minded students with a desire to learn. Regent’s immersive AR / VR programme makes learning truly transformational and enjoyable enabling students to experience and visualise science, art, history, culture, and academics like never before.

We are a global leader in Positive Education (PosEd) – a paradigm shift in education worldwide – where education regulators, parents and society have realised that outstanding teaching can only be achieved when academic and personal achievement are combined with a strong foundation in wellbeing, values, and character development. Our young learners grow to have a strong sense of character and purpose, lifelong values, resolute self-belief, and emotional wellbeing. In short, Regent students not only shine academically but also flourish in life.

We have a dynamic student body and an inspiring team of teachers who motivate our students to go well beyond their expectations. By empowering our students to become innovative thinkers, creative problem-solvers, socially confident and inspired learners, the school is committed to every child achieving their dreams and ambitions. We are a school that is genuinely restless in our pursuit of excellence and the phrase ‘Every Child Matters’  is a live,  real achievement and not merely a strap line.
