Mid-tier (Chatsworth, Dover Court): annual S\$30,000-45,000. Premium (Dulwich, GEMS, Nexus): S\$38,000-55,000. Tanglin/Stamford/CIS: S\$42,000-62,000. Top-tier (SAS, UWC): S\$55,000-85,000. Plus enrolment fee (S\$3,500-7,500), refundable deposit (1 term's fees), capital/building fees at some schools (S\$10,000-25,000), transport (S\$4,500-9,000/year), and meals (S\$3,000-6,000/year).
US universities: American curriculum (AP) or IB both work well. UK universities: A-Levels or IB, with A-Levels slightly preferred for humanities, IB for sciences. Australian universities: IB or Australian VCE (from Australian International School). Match curriculum to target universities — switching mid-senior-school is painful.
Very variable across schools. Dover Court has strong SEN programmes. SAS, Stamford, Tanglin have mid-level SEN capacity. Some smaller schools have minimal SEN capability. For children with learning differences, verify specific SEN support before enrolment — not all schools can accommodate, and post-enrolment SEN identification can trigger placement issues.
EduTrust is the Committee for Private Education's accreditation for private international schools. 4-year certification indicates higher quality standards than 1-year. Schools without current EduTrust are in regulatory trouble and can't enrol international students legitimately. Verify certification before committing.
6-18 months for top-tier schools (SAS, UWC, Tanglin, Dulwich). Some year groups at popular grade levels (Year 7, Year 11) have waitlists exceeding 12 months. Smaller schools and less popular year groups have immediate availability. Early application with placement testing gives you more options.
