School System

The system of the Swiss School Singapore

The Swiss School Singapore is one of the 17 officially recognised schools outside of Switzerland, recognised by Singapore as an official private school. It is supervised by the Canton Zug of Switzerland and a school inspector visits the school and evaluates the teachers regularly. The Canton Zug also provides administrative and financial support to the school.

The Swiss School Association Singapore accomodates students as early as two years of age (Little Tots). Classes run from Little Tots right up to Grade 9. The curriculum is based on that of the Canton Zug as well as that of the United World College of Singapore. This makes it suitable for a smooth transfer either back to Switzerland or to another school in an English speaking country.
The classes for the Little Tots, the Playgroups and the Kindergarten are conducted in English. All the other classes are conducted in German with the emphasis on English.

The options after grade 9

  • transition back to Switzerland
  • Transfer to any German school worldwide
  • Transition to United World College of Singapore (Degree: International Baccalaureate, which is recognised by more than 700 universities)
  • Transition to any school in English speaking countries
