ISS International School

ISS International School is one of the longest-serving IB schools in Singapore, founded in 1981 by the late Mr. Chan Chee Seng, a former Member of Parliament. Unlike many other schools, ISS remains a family-run institution, which contributes to its unique, nurturing, and inclusive atmosphere. The school focuses on an individualized learning approach, ensuring that each student’s specific needs and strengths are addressed.

ISS is a full IB continuum school. Its campus is located on Preston Road, set within the lush greenery of a colonial-era estate, providing a quiet and focused environment for students. The school is particularly well-known for its excellent English as an Additional Language (EAL) program and its commitment to social and emotional wellbeing.

The school's philosophy is centered on 'Realizing Potential,' and it has a long track record of helping students from various academic backgrounds achieve success in the IB Diploma. With a relatively small student population, ISS offers a close-knit community where every teacher knows every student. This makes it a popular choice for families who find the larger international schools overwhelming.
