Overall

Overrated. It’s an OK school at best. Great facilities but unfortunately the younger ones (at least for my child’s year) have not really gotten the chance to use it. Example, PE is held in LG2 when they have a beautiful sports hall or outdoor field. They were very recently only allowed to go to the playground once a week… School does really well in their marketing but it’s really the case of overselling themselves. Agree with other commenters that it’s really a glorified Chinese school. Lack of diversity. Headmistress is unreachable. Does not respond to anything. Recent sports day was not managed properly..not all year 1 students were allowed to participate, not sure how did they decide who gets to participate and who doesn’t but not very inclusive. Medals were given to some winners and some did not receive any until 3 weeks later.. no communication whatsoever. I can understand why a lot people are trying to get into this school because of its offerings which not many other school has. It’s not as tough as a Chinese school yet not as liberal as an international school. However, while it sounds great on paper. I find the school is struggling with its identity and has much to work on esp senior management.

Generally, quite happy with the "hardware" , aka facilities, even though not all has been completed. The teaching quality and communication is quite okay so far. However, it is quite like a Chinese School, looking at majority of the students were from Chinese local school background, hopefully in coming years they will get more mixed of students. Fees is rather reasonable looking at the shcool is a full fledge international school as compared to those "shoplot" type. I would like said is more like the mid range international schools pricing. Pure vegetarian for kids within the campus
