Overseas Family School (OFS)
Overseas Family School (OFS) is one of the largest international schools in Singapore, catering exclusively to expatriate families. It is known for its inclusive 'open entry' policy, which doesn't require academic testing for admission, reflecting its belief that every child can succeed in the right environment. The school is located on a modern campus in Pasir Ris.
OFS follows the International Early Years Curriculum (IEYC), International Primary Curriculum (IPC), and the full IB framework for secondary school. One of its most distinctive features is the World Leopard Chess Program, which is integrated into the curriculum for younger students to build critical thinking skills. They also offer a comprehensive Mother Tongue program to help students maintain their native languages.
The campus is highly functional and well-equipped with numerous science labs, computer rooms, and sports facilities. Despite its size, the school organizes students into smaller 'schools within a school' to ensure every student feels known and supported.
