“I’m feeling really happy! I plan to study medicine. I’m really excited about what the future holds,” said Bhakti Birla, an IBDP 2025 World Topper.

How International Schools Develop Future-Ready Students Through Advanced Presentation Skills

Most international schools build presentation skills by making students speak, perform and defend ideas in front of real audiences, repeatedly and from an early age. At GIIS in Singapore, this happens through the international and Indian curricula, including IB, Cambridge and CBSE and 9GEMS framework. Students also practise these skills through performances, competitions and clubs.

How International Schools in Singapore Develop Life Skills Through Different Teaching Approaches

Many international schools in Singapore teach life skills by embedding practical competencies such as problem-solving, emotional regulation and teamwork directly into personalised academic frameworks. Rather than using one-size-fits-all instruction, most top institutions adapt life skill development to match visual, discussion-based and hands-on learning activities.

How Do International Schools Prepare Students for University Applications from Grade 9 & 10?

Parents researching Singapore's international schools often ask the same question: when should university planning actually begin? The honest answer is earlier than most families expect. By the time a student reaches Grade 12, the subjects they took, the activities they pursued and the guidance they received years earlier have already shaped what doors are open to them.

What Does “Holistic Education” Actually Mean in a Singapore International School?

In a Singapore international school like GIIS, holistic education means academics sit alongside eight other areas of development — sport, arts, leadership, innovation, community service, personality growth, skills, and values — inside one structured framework. It isn't a marketing phrase; it's how the timetable and activities are actually organised. It's natural to wonder what it actually means for your child. Ask ten different parents and you'll probably hear ten different answers — and that's okay. This guide breaks down the meaning of holistic education in plain language, explains what holistic learning looks like day to day and shows how it compares to a traditional, exam-first model.
