About this school
Singapore School Manila (SSM) is the Makati school of Singapore Schools Philippines, a group that also runs campuses in Clark, Silang (Cavite), Cebu and Bacolod. Located in Paseo de Magallanes, SSM is recognised by the Philippine Department of Education, is an accredited Cambridge school and is authorised by the International Baccalaureate as an IB World School.
The academic pathway follows these stages:
- Singapore curriculum for Preschool, Primary and Lower Secondary
- Cambridge IGCSE for upper secondary
- Cambridge AS/A Levels or the IB Diploma Programme at pre-university level
Class sizes are kept small, with at most 12 children to two teachers in preschool and 24 students per class at higher levels. The school follows a no-homework policy up to Secondary 2 to protect family time, while IGCSE, A Level and IB students receive homework to prepare for university. Supervised "special time" is built into the day for unfinished work, and after-school activities include music, performing arts, debate and sports. Students come from a range of nationalities, and alumni have gone on to universities in Hong Kong, Canada and elsewhere.
