Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
1. Visit the campus. Families can book a tour during term time to observe the school day. Visits can include both campuses if you're deciding between City and Riverside for the primary years.
2. Submit an application. Submit the completed application form along with supporting documents such as school reports or learning support plans. Indicate whether you're applying to City, Riverside, or both.
3. Pay the application fee. Once eligibility is confirmed, a non-refundable THB 5,000 fee is required to register the application. Payment is made by bank transfer.
4. Attend an assessment. Applicants complete an age-appropriate assessment. This may include interviews, academic tasks, and cognitive tests, depending on the year group. References are also requested.
5. Wait for the decision. The Principal reviews the full application. If a place is not available, the child may be added to a waitlist or offered a place at the other campus.
6. Accept the offer. To secure a place, return the acceptance form and pay the Guaranteed Place Fee by the stated deadline. Offers not accepted on time may be withdrawn.
If your child meets admission criteria but no places are available, they’ll be placed on a waiting list. If spaces open at the alternate campus (e.g. Riverside vs City), and you have indicated interest in both, you may choose either to remain on the waitlist for your preferred campus or accept a placement at the other campus. Once the Guaranteed Place Fee is paid, transfers between campuses are only allowed at the end of Year 6.
City Campus does not offer scholarships to new entrants. All scholarships (academic, performance, art, drama) are honorary awards available only to current Riverside students, based on IGCSE or A‑Level results or performance within the school’s Excellence Programmes.
Shrewsbury Bangkok’s City Campus opened in 2018 in central Bangkok to serve children aged 2–11 in a setting focused on primary‑age education. The curriculum follows the English National Curriculum, from Nursery (EYFS) through Key Stage 2 (Years 1–6), all taught in English. Located near Sukhumvit, Rama 9 and Petchaburi roads, the campus combines easy accessibility with safe, modern facilities spread over 17 rai with indoor pools, a sports hall and running track, creative studios, library, media and tech labs, and a 655‑seat auditorium. With a capacity of 744 and around 600 students enrolled, the school offers dedicated pastoral care through Learning Mentors and a focus on student responsibility via its House Captain and Student Council programmes.
