The Benjamarachalai School is a schoolhouse situated in the old palace of the Prince Marubongsa Siribadhana, half-brother of King Rama V, in Bangkok, Thailand. He built the school in honor of King Rama V.[1]

The school has since constructed four new buildings to replace the old, wooden one. It is currently a girls' school teaching students in grades 7-12. It offers art, science, math, and foreign language study.[2] It is another all-girls secondary school in the Phra Nakhon district, alongside Satri Witthaya School and Rajini School.
