About The Japanese School Singapore
The Japanese School Singapore is an international school located at 95 Clementi Road, serving families islandwide. It is KakiList-verified and ACRA-registered. No Google reviews are currently available, so independent rating data cannot be cited. No EduTrust certification is listed in the provider data, which is a mandatory requirement for international schools regulated by the Committee for Private Education (CPE); prospective families should confirm certification status directly with the school before proceeding.
When considering enrolment, families should clarify the curriculum track on offer — whether Japanese Ministry of Education, IB, or another framework — and the university pathways each track supports. The full annual cost should be requested in writing: this typically includes tuition fees, a non-refundable enrolment fee, a refundable deposit (often equivalent to one term's fees), any building or capital levy, and estimated transport and meal costs. International school fee commitments can run to a decade or more, and fee escalation history is worth asking about. Prospective families should also enquire about the school's intake assessment process, SEN capacity, student-to-teacher ratio, and the balance of Japanese-national versus other-nationality enrolment, as these factors shape both classroom experience and the social environment.
To take the next step, contact The Japanese School Singapore directly by phone or via the enquiry form on their listing to arrange a school visit, request a full fee schedule, and confirm EduTrust certification status before submitting any application or paying any deposit.

Annual tuition at international schools in Singapore typically ranges from S$25,000 to S$60,000 or more depending on the year group and curriculum. The published price tier for The Japanese School Singapore is listed as '$$', but a precise annual figure is not available in the current listing data — families should request a full written fee schedule directly from the school. Beyond tuition, factor in the non-refundable enrolment fee (typically S$3,500–7,500), a refundable deposit (often one term's fees), a building or capital levy at some schools (S$10,000–25,000), transport (S$3,500–8,000 per year), and meals (S$1,500–4,000 per year). Tuition fees are GST-exempt, though this should be confirmed at the time of enrolment. See the full International Schools cost guide for Singapore →
The specific curriculum track offered by The Japanese School Singapore is not detailed in the current listing data. Japanese international schools in Singapore may follow the Japanese Ministry of Education curriculum, which is designed primarily to support re-entry into the Japanese school system and university entrance in Japan. Some may also offer internationally recognised qualifications alongside the national curriculum. Families targeting universities in Japan will want to confirm syllabus alignment and examination preparation. Those considering universities in other countries — including the UK, US, or Australia — should ask whether an IB Diploma or other internationally portable qualification is available, and what the school's university placement record looks like. Student-teacher ratio is worth confirming directly, as class sizes vary by year group. If the school publishes university destination data or examination results, request this before committing to enrolment.
The enrolment process at most international schools begins with an online or paper application, followed by a school visit and, for older students, an intake assessment to confirm appropriate year-group placement. Waiting lists can be lengthy at popular year groups — particularly around Years 7 to 9 — so enquiring early is advisable. At the point of offer, families are typically asked to pay a non-refundable enrolment fee and a refundable deposit to secure the place. Clarify in advance which fees are refundable if your family needs to leave Singapore mid-year, and how any building fund is treated upon departure. Visit the school during normal school hours and, if possible, meet the relevant year-group lead before submitting an application. Confirm EduTrust certification status on the CPE public register and obtain the complete fee schedule in writing before making any payment.
