For today’s parents, a “good school” means more than just quality academics.
It’s a place where children can learn happily, safely, and confidently under attentive care every single day.
At Raffles American School Bangkok (RAS), we believe that
“Safety is the foundation of every learning experience.”
When children feel safe, they are free to explore, discover, and grow with confidence.
Close Care at Every Age — From Nursery to High School
From the very first day a student steps onto campus, every child at Raffles is cared for by a dedicated team of homeroom teachers, assistant teachers, and caregivers trained specifically in child safety and wellbeing.
In our Nursery and Kindergarten programs, we maintain a low teacher-to-student ratio, ensuring each child receives personalized attention throughout the day — whether in class, during playtime, or at lunch.
All activities — inside and outside the classroom — are supervised at all times.
From art and music sessions to playground time and field trips, parents can rest assured that their children are always in the care of responsible, well-trained adults.
A Campus Designed with Safety in Every Detail
Every corner of the Raffles campus is thoughtfully designed with student safety as the top priority, including:
- Controlled entry and exit points monitored by security personnel throughout the day
- Soft, non-slip, and impact-absorbing surfaces in playgrounds and outdoor areas
- Child-friendly classroom furniture with rounded edges and age-appropriate design
- CCTV cameras and visitor check-in systems to monitor and restrict unauthorized access
Because we know that parents’ peace of mind begins with their child’s safety — every step of the way.
Regular Fire Drills and Emergency Preparedness
At Raffles, we don’t just prepare students for academic success — we also teach them how to stay calm and safe in unexpected situations.
The school conducts regular fire drills and emergency response practices every term, so that all students and staff know exactly what to do when an alarm sounds.
Students learn through age-appropriate activities such as:
- Recognizing and responding to warning signals
- Listening and following teacher instructions calmly
- Practicing safe evacuation through guided simulations
These exercises are not meant to frighten students, but to build confidence, awareness, and readiness — so that when faced with real challenges, they know “I can handle this.”
Continuous Safety Training for Teachers and Staff
A safe school begins with well-prepared staff.
All Raffles teachers and team members receive regular training in:
- First Aid and CPR (Basic Life Support)
- Child Safety and Emergency Care
- Crisis Prevention and Response
The school also appoints a Safety Coordinator, responsible for monthly safety checks, including fire extinguishers, evacuation routes, and safety systems across campus.
Every staff member — from the Head of School to classroom assistants — knows their role in any emergency situation.
Because at Raffles, we don’t wait for problems to happen — we are always prepared.
Learning with Confidence, Growing in Safety
We know that every parent wants to see their child go to school with a smile and return home with happiness.
That’s why at Raffles American School Bangkok, we take care of every detail — ensuring your child learns, plays, and grows in a secure and nurturing environment.
For us, safety is not just a rule — it’s a culture of care that lives in the heart of every member of the Raffles community.
