Singapore boasts some of the best schools in the world. A lot of it has to do with the fact that it is a first world nation attracting expats from all over the world to live and work there. Quite a large number of them come with their families and the presence of a large number of international schools in the city state makes them very comfortable doing so. Among the Indian expat community in Singapore the most popular choice of school for their children is the Global Indian International School. As a matter of fact, it is quite popular among children of expats from other parts of the world as well.
Let us examine in detail what makes this school so special among the new international schools in Singapore.
