About Reigate Grammar School Vietnam

Curriculum

As the first UK school in Vietnam and a member of the Council of British International Schools (COBIS), RGS Vietnam delivers world-class British education, meeting rigorous standards in teaching quality, facilities, pastoral care, and safeguarding.

RGS Vietnam is a not-for-profit international school serving students from Nursery through Year 13, offering a distinctive learning environment with small class sizes (average 15-20 students) for personalized attention.

• Early Years & Primary The journey begins with the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP), which provides a strong foundation for inquiry, creativity, and holistic development.

• Lower Secondary (Years 7-9) A bespoke enquiry-based program fosters critical thinking, independence, and collaborative learning, preparing students for the rigors of external qualifications.

• Upper Secondary (Years 10-13) ◦ Years 10-11: Students follow the Cambridge IGCSE programme, developing a broad academic base and essential study skills. ◦ Sixth Form (Years 12-13): Students may choose between the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) or Cambridge International A Levels, both of which prepare them for global university entrance.
