Enriching Student Life Beyond the Classroom
At Shrewsbury International School Bangkok, Riverside, we believe that education extends beyond the confines of the classroom. Our co-curricular programme is designed to provide Senior School students with a broad range of non-academic activities that foster personal growth, leadership, and a sense of community. Through these activities, students develop essential life skills, discover new passions, and cultivate a well-rounded character.
The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award
One of the most esteemed programmes offered is the Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award. This globally recognized initiative encourages students to challenge themselves through physical recreation, skills development, voluntary service, and adventurous journeys. By participating in this award, students not only achieve personal milestones but also learn the importance of resilience, teamwork, and social responsibility.
Higher Project Qualifications (HPQ) and Extended Project Qualifications (EPQ)
For those with a passion for in-depth research and independent learning, the Higher Project Qualifications (HPQ) and Extended Project Qualifications (EPQ) provide an excellent platform. These qualifications allow students to explore topics of their choice in great detail, fostering critical thinking, research skills, and intellectual curiosity. Completing an HPQ or EPQ not only enhances academic profiles but also prepares students for the rigors of university-level study.

This programme is designed to promote physical health, creativity, and a balanced lifestyle.
Examples of ‘You-Time’ Activities:
