Find out what your options are

Seats in the local public school system are limited for expats and the tuition cost often competes with that of private schools. With over 60 international schools in Singapore, each school offers either a national, international or a combination of different curriculum options you can choose from.

Look for a school culture that aligns with your values

When it comes to international schools, every school follows its own learning and teaching philosophy based on a set of key values, principles and objectives. As a result, no two schools are alike and each school may be more or less aligned with your values, needs and expectations.

Simple application process

Our admissions process is simple and easy. We are always just one call or email away if you have any questions or concerns.

Every child a valued individual

Our caring teachers and our safe and loving school environment help bring out the best in your child, providing the sense of comfort and belonging they need for a smooth transition.

Family-like atmosphere

Despite the rapid growth of our school, our small student-to-teacher ratio and our personalised approach to learning allow us to maintain our intimate and family-like school atmosphere.

Kindness initiatives

Through our kindness initiatives, we further promote our students’ sense of belonging. We also encourage collaboration, foster mutual respect and create a positive, inclusive and healthy school setting for all.

Northern Hemisphere academic calendar

We follow the Northern Hemisphere school year, starting in August and ending in June. Enrolment is open throughout the year and admission is based on grade seat availability.

Reasonable tuition fees

Our tuition fees are widely regarded as being quite reasonable for the value we offer in terms of a well-rounded education. At OWIS, your child will have access to world-class curricula, experienced and passionate educators and a warm and inclusive community, so they can achieve their full potential.

Get familiar with the admissions process

International schools in Singapore follow different academic calendars, which can impact your child’s admission and family travel plans. Most schools accept new students throughout the year based on availability but, with a large demand for school places, getting on a long waitlist is nothing out of the ordinary.

Budget for school tuition fees and other expenses

As one of the world’s most expensive cities, high tuition fees can add extra financial stress on your family. When reviewing your schools of interest, find out exactly what you're paying for and what other expenses you’ll need to budget for.
