Rugby vs. Regents
A-Level brand vs. IBDP optionality. Boarding from 10 vs. Y3. Side-by-side fees + decision framework.
Four Pattaya-area schools currently publish quantified public exam-result metrics that a parent can quote back to admissions. Several others publish broader success language, older tables or pathway claims without a current cohort result set. This page separates those categories instead of pretending they are one league table.

The clean question is not “which school is best?” It is which schools actually publish usable current exam-result evidence, and what kind of evidence is it? A school that gives a dated IGCSE percentage table is publishing something materially different from a school that only says students achieve excellent outcomes.
This guide therefore splits the public evidence into four buckets: quantified cohort metrics, softer current results-page evidence, no usable current public results disclosure located, and no cohort yet. That is stricter than brochure language, but it is the only way to keep unlike claims out of the same column.
These are the strongest current public exam-result disclosures located in this sweep. They still differ by qualification, cohort size and level of detail, but each gives a parent something concrete to challenge or confirm with admissions.
| School | What is publicly quantified | How to read it | What is still missing | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rugby Thailand | IGCSE 2025: 28% A*, 52% A*/A and 91% A*–C. A Level 2025: 92% A*–C and 100% pass. | Current quantified school-level metrics for both IGCSE and A Level | No subject-by-subject breakdown on this page | Academic results ↗ |
| Regents Pattaya | IBDP 2026: average 34 and top score 45/45. A Level 2026: 92% pass, with 50% at A*–A, 66% at A*–B and 75% at A*–C. IGCSE 2026: 46% of grades at A*–A / 9–7, 91% at A*–C / 9–4 and 99.8% pass. | Dated 2026 school releases across IBDP, A Level and IGCSE | No cohort denominator or subject-by-subject table in the three releases. The 40-plus IBDP share is omitted because official versions captured during this update conflicted. | IBDP ↗ · A Level ↗ · IGCSE ↗ |
| Garden Rayong | Exam-results page includes IGCSE and IB tables. The directly located IB Diploma table shows a GIS 2023 diploma pass rate of 80%. | Quantified table evidence, but the current public table is not especially deep | The page relies heavily on headline claims and older table rows rather than a current full commentary set | Examination results ↗ |
| TPIS | Secondary page states 100% IGCSE pass, 87% at A*–C and 56% at A*/A for 2025, plus 95% in a separate KPI and a Best in Asia Pearson IGCSE History award. | Current quantified IGCSE results with a named external award | The page is IGCSE-led; it is not a full multi-qualification outcomes table | Secondary school ↗ |
St Andrew's Green Valley clearly publishes an academic-results page, and the located text confirms an IGCSE 2025-2026 section plus a long-run “above the UK average” claim. That is meaningful. It is just not as cleanly tabled in the text extract used for this sweep as Rugby, Regents, Garden or TPIS.
| School | What the current page gives you | How this page treats it | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| St Andrew's GV | Current academic-results section says the school has scored consistently above the UK average for seven years and presents an IGCSE 2025-2026 results block. | Real results-page evidence, but the most directly located text in this sweep is more comparative than table-clean | Academic results ↗ |
These schools may have stronger internal results than their websites suggest. That is not the point. The point is that the current public page set located in this sweep does not give a usable current exam-results disclosure.
| School | What the located current page says | Editorial treatment | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISE | The current home page publishes Class of 2026 university acceptances, but no located current public IGCSE or IB results table. | Outcomes language exists, but not a usable current exam-results disclosure | Current home page ↗ |
| MIS | The home page promotes British-curriculum progression to IGCSE and uses broad academic-success language, but no current quantified exam-result page was located in this sweep. | Treat as no usable current public exam-results disclosure located | Current home page ↗ |
| REPS | The located higher-education page says graduates maintain 100% acceptance to top universities, but it is a university-placement claim rather than an exam-results page. | Do not convert a higher-education marketing page into IGCSE or A Level result evidence | University acceptance ↗ |
| Wells Chonburi | The located official system overview describes a university-preparatory American curriculum, not campus-specific public exam results. | No usable current Chonburi-campus exam-results disclosure located in this sweep | System overview ↗ |
Highgate is different from a school that has senior pupils but publishes no results. It opened Pre-Prep and Junior School on 19 August 2026 and is in its first term, so there is no Thailand-based examination cohort to audit yet.
| School | What the located current page says | Editorial treatment | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Highgate Thailand | The current home page says Pre-Prep and Junior School are now open, and the school records 19 August 2026 as its first day. Senior School is planned for 2027/28; boarding is not operating and official pages conflict on its later start date. | No Thailand exam cohort exists yet, so there can be no live public result set | Current home page ↗ · First-day record ↗ |
1. Which qualification is it? IGCSE, A Level and IB Diploma are not interchangeable, and a school can be strong in one while publishing little about another.
2. Is the year explicit? A current year label matters. An undated “academic excellence” block can mix cohorts, qualifications or marketing copy.
3. Is it a whole cohort or a highlight? One “Best in Asia” award is real evidence, but it does not substitute for the whole cohort distribution.
4. Is it this campus? Group-wide or system-wide language should not be imported into a single Pattaya-area campus record.
5. What is still missing? Denominator, subject mix, top-grade share, pass rate and qualification split all matter if you want more than a slogan.
The right next step is a written request for the latest full cohort, qualification mix and subject-level breakdown. If a school can support its claims, that request should be easy for admissions to answer cleanly.
No brochure copy from third-party listings is used here. Where a school does not publish enough evidence, the page says so plainly.
In the current public source set, Rugby Thailand, Regents Pattaya, Garden Rayong and TPIS publish quantified exam-result metrics that name a cohort, a year or both. St Andrew's Green Valley also runs a current results section, but its strongest directly located text in this sweep is comparative rather than a clean table extract.
No. A missing public results disclosure is a publishing fact, not a judgement on teaching quality. It does mean families should ask harder questions, because the website does not currently provide a clean cohort benchmark.
Not safely. Schools publish different qualifications, different cohort sizes, different years and different levels of detail. Some give full percentages, some give one headline, and some give only broad success language. Compare evidence quality first, then request the latest full cohort data directly from admissions.
Ask for the latest full graduating or examination cohort, subject mix, denominator, pass rate, top-grade distribution, whether figures are campus-specific, and whether the published numbers are selected highlights or the whole class. A strong admissions answer should distinguish IGCSE, A Level and IB clearly.
