Established in 1993, AIS is the only international school in Singapore that offers the NSW Department of Education curriculum (HSG) and the International Baccalaureate B. AIS maintains an Australian education philosophy and provides an international education that offers a broad curriculum for all types of students, not only for English as a first language students but also for non-native English speakers. It is not only for English as a first language students but also for non-native English speaking students. AIS promotes respect, international perspective, lifelong learning, critical thinking, creativity, communication, self-confidence, and transpersonal thinking in its curriculum in order to develop students into outstanding, socially responsible individuals with the right values. This "respectful" education has been appreciated by many families at home and abroad. Students can choose to study IG from 14-16 years old and IB or HSC (Australian High School Curriculum) from 16-18 years old.
I hope that this welcoming introduction may encourage you to explore our school further. Foremost, the excitement of an international education in the extraordinary city of Singapore is readily shown at AIS. Significantly, the School’s dynamic and global students represent a cosmopolitan expression of learning that fulfils our vision of opportunity, achievement and respect. Notably, over fifty nationalities populate AIS, and each student brings the uniqueness of the experiences to enliven others.
