Expat Living (Singapore)

North London

Collegiate School (Singapore)

-

We moved to Singapore in 2018 after living in the UK for 11 years and, before that, five years in the US. Naomi and Louis have been at NLCS (Singapore) since August 2021 and we’re intending that Kai attends from 2023.

Having lived in London for many years, we were aware of the excellent reputation of the parent school; our sisterin-law’s three daughters were at the school and were happy. We wanted our children to join when we heard they were opening in Singapore because, having spoken to the team, we knew they were dedicated to providing the same quality of education as in London.

The quality of the teachers is top class and the curriculum is excellent – we have compared notes with our friends whose children currently attend NLCS UK and we can say that it’s very much in line, which is not always the case for schools here in Singapore. This will ensure a smoother transition in the event we return to the UK.

The facilities and line-up of CCAs is impressive. We were surprised to learn that CCAs are at no extra cost and to see even tennis as an option for seven-year-olds. Overall, everyone at the school seems highly profession­al and dedicated to providing a high-quality education for the children.

The children enjoy school and the location is great for us. This means that our children spend less time travelling to and from school and have more time to rest and play, which is very important for us.

NLCS Singapore is really a wonderful school; we couldn’t be happier and we would recommend it to anyone.
