Brighton College Bangkok Vibhavadi is the second international campus opened by Brighton College in Bangkok, following the establishment of the Krungthep Kreetha campus in 2016. The Vibhavadi site reflects the continued growth of Brighton College’s international network, which extends from the UK to several locations worldwide. The school is part of the Brighton College family of schools, which originated in Brighton, England, in 1845. Its ownership structure combines the educational leadership of Brighton College UK with local partnerships, ensuring alignment with the ethos and traditions of the original school while adapting to the context of Bangkok. The founding of the Vibhavadi campus is intended to extend access to the Brighton College approach to education for families in a different part of the city.
The school community is made up of pupils, families, and staff who regularly take part in a variety of events and cultural celebrations. These include charitable initiatives such as book swaps, bake sales, volunteering in hospitals, and community outreach programmes supporting disadvantaged groups. Annual festivities and holiday events also bring families together, encouraging parent participation and fostering connections across the school community.
The school does not mention having a formal Parent Teacher Association (PTA). However, parents are regularly involved in the wider school community through events and celebrations. Open Houses, cultural festivals, and performances are examples where families are invited to participate, engage with staff, and celebrate student achievements. These occasions provide opportunities for parents to connect with teachers and the school community, even though they are not framed as PTA-run activities.
Brighton College Bangkok Vibhavadi, located north of central Bangkok along Vibhavadi Rangsit Road, opens in August 2025 and welcomes students aged 2–18 to a British-based education leading to IGCSEs and A-Levels. Nestled in Chatuchak with direct access to BTS and MRT lines, the campus is just a short drive from Don Mueang Airport and central Bangkok. Class sizes average 23, with a cap of 25, and the school currently enrolls around 500 students. A hallmark of life here is the rich balance of opportunity. Students enjoy regular drama, music, art, and design classes, support for sports from football to kayaking, use of a rooftop swimming pool and 400-seat theatre, and active House-based pastoral care. Weekly assemblies and presentation skills training reinforce personal development alongside academics. Unique to this school is its seamless progression from Early Years through Sixth Form in a caring, single-school community led by Founding Head Master Mr Crispian Waterman.
