Situated in the north east rather quiet area of Singapore is OFS school with remarkable campus. As a parent I am really impressed with the processes, promptness and professionalism exhibited by the staff from time to time, also with its always open door policy. School offers IPC, MYP & IB DP curriculum with special focus on sports and extra hour enrichment classes.

I love this school. To begin with, most of the teachers are extremely knowledgable and well trained in the high school especially in the STEM departments. The students here are also very nice and academically challenges you which is encouraging. Yes, the facilities are limited compared to other schools however, academically I could argue this is one of the best schools in the world!
