When parents think about boarding schools, they often imagine the social and personal growth students experience, such as gaining independence, making lifelong friends, and building character. However, one of the most important and sometimes overlooked benefits is how boarding can boost academic success. Boarding students benefit from structured routines, consistent access to teachers, and a […]

Comfortable student reading in a cozy, well-decorated bedroom at an international school.
Cuando los padres piensan en los internados, a menudo se imaginan el crecimiento social y personal que experimentan los alumnos, como ganar independencia, hacer amigos para toda la vida y forjar el carácter. Sin embargo, una de las ventajas más importantes y que a veces se pasa por alto es cómo el internado puede impulsar el éxito académico.
Los alumnos internos se benefician de rutinas estructuradas, acceso constante a los profesores y una comunidad de compañeros que comparten sus objetivos. Sin las distracciones de los desplazamientos, los alumnos disponen de más tiempo al día para centrarse en sus estudios, participar en actividades de enriquecimiento y crear hábitos de estudio saludables. El internado también crea un entorno en el que el aprendizaje continúa más allá del aula, a través de actividades nocturnas, conversaciones con los profesores o el estudio en grupo con los amigos.
Ya hemos visto los muchos ventajas del embarque puede ofrecer a los niños (puede consultar el artículo aquí). En este artículo analizaremos las principales ventajas académicas de la vida en internado, como el tiempo de estudio estructurado, el apoyo de los profesores y la motivación de los compañeros. Además, expertos de los mejores internados del mundo te contarán sus experiencias y puntos de vista.

Entornos de aprendizaje estructurados

Los internados están diseñados para equilibrar los estudios con el bienestar personal. Las salas de estudio, el tiempo de preparación por las tardes y los espacios de aprendizaje supervisados ayudan a los alumnos a crear hábitos de trabajo sólidos. Esta estructura fomenta la constancia y reduce la procrastinación, habilidades muy valiosas para los exámenes y la vida universitaria.
Dedicated Study Rooms
Our boarding houses have dedicated study rooms that allow students to spend their spare time putting in extra hours where needed. We respect, and indeed instil, an ethos to work hard… but the House Parents also help the children in their care to strike a good balance of work and play.

Wellbeing as the Foundation for Academic
One of our key objectives, not just with boarders but for all, is to ensure the emotional stability and well-being of the children at Rugby School Thailand. Our boarding House Parents (Prep) and House Deans (Senior) are experts in pastoral care and support children in the best possible way. With emotional stability and well-being comes happiness, and with happiness comes confidence and an ability to focus. And that’s exactly why our motto is ‘the whole person, the whole point’.

Acceso a los profesores más allá del aula

A diferencia de lo que ocurre en los colegios diurnos, los alumnos internos suelen relacionarse con los profesores fuera de las horas de clase, por ejemplo durante las actividades extraescolares, los programas nocturnos o las conversaciones informales. Este tiempo extra ayuda a los alumnos a forjar sólidas relaciones de tutoría, hacer preguntas con más libertad y obtener orientación que apoye su crecimiento académico.
Closer Connections with Teachers
Our after school boarding activities are run by teachers and tutors, meaning the children who board with us have more exposure to these academic guides. This allows them to ask questions in their free time and build an even stronger rapport with their teachers, which benefits their classroom work.

Motivación entre iguales y cultura académica

Una de las principales ventajas académicas del internado es la motivación que los alumnos adquieren unos de otros. Vivir con compañeros que tienen objetivos similares crea un entorno de apoyo. Los alumnos trabajan juntos en las sesiones de estudio y también aprenden a equilibrar trabajo y diversión, creando hábitos que les ayudarán en la universidad y más allá.
Academic Activities Beyond the Classroom
Our boarders have evening activities that (particularly in Senior School) are rooted in academics. For example, in the Prep School there may be an engaging maths challenge or quiz of an evening; whereas in Senior School they can select whether to do an activity or dedicate time to study, as we encourage more independence in their choices.

Peer Support and a Strong Learning Ethos
There’s an exemplary collective ethos towards work amongst our boarders. They all seem to understand what makes a good balance of study and time off, and this can fluctuate according to the time of year, for example when exams are happening. The boarders can just as easily encourage each other to learn, as they can celebrate free time and enjoy playing games with each other, talking, or reading novels.

Lo que dicen las escuelas

Las escuelas con experiencia práctica en este tema comparten su perspectiva.
More Time to Learn, Less Time Commuting
Many of our boarders come from Bangkok or busy cities in neighbouring countries, where they’ve swapped slow city traffic for a short walk through school grounds. This gives our boarders more time in their day to focus on the things that matter most, such as study, music practice, and exercise.
