A new Rugby School Group campus opening in September 2026 in Phu Thuong Ward, Tay Ho, developed in partnership with Khai Sang Corporation. Pre-prep first, then prep and senior provision from September 2027.

Dr Neil Hampton, CEO of Rugby School Global, leads the group. The school will run the British curriculum from Early Years through IGCSE, with the IB Diploma in Years 12 and 13, and joins the network alongside the UK school plus campuses in Thailand, Japan, Nigeria and Dubai and three UK preps. The Tay Ho location is significant: this is the side of Hanoi where most expat families with school-age children settle.

Operated under licence from Rugby School in Warwickshire, so the brand carries weight in the UK boarding tradition while the school itself is a Vietnam-incorporated entity. With the campus only opening, there is no parent voice yet; what is on offer is the operator's reputation and the published facilities and fee plan. Families weighing this against BIS Hanoi and the established names should expect to play the long game while the school builds out.
