About this school
Tanglin Trust School was established in 1925 and is the oldest British international school in Southeast Asia. It is a not-for-profit, co-educational school with about 2,850 students from more than 55 nationalities, and it reinvests tuition fees in its educational provision.
Tanglin follows the English National Curriculum with an international perspective, for children aged 3 to 18:
- Infant School (ages 3-7), including Forest School
- Junior School (ages 7-11)
- Middle School (ages 11-14), with its Highlands outdoor programme
- Upper School (ages 14-16), leading to GCSE/IGCSE exams
- Sixth Form (ages 16-18), where students choose between A Levels and the IB Diploma
The school says around 96% of graduates are admitted to their first or second-choice universities. Its 4.6-hectare campus on Portsdown Road in the one-north district has separate buildings for the Infant, Junior and Senior Schools, a Sixth Form Centre and the Tanglin Centenary Building completed in 2023. Facilities include sports and assembly halls, music and drama spaces, science labs, libraries and health centres. Classes have at most 24 students, with teaching assistants in the early years.
