Founded in 1972, Dover Court International School (DCIS) is a well-established British international school in Singapore. We offer a broad and balanced programme operating within the framework of the National Curriculum for England. As part of Nord Anglia Education, we benefit from the opportunities gained from being part of a family of over 80 schools.
Represented by over 60 nationalities, DCIS is an inclusive all-through school, welcoming students from Nursery all the way through to Sixth Form. Our students’ examination results are consistently well above global averages and our graduates leave us prepared to continue their journey at world-class universities.
DCIS starts with the Early Years Foundation Stage in our Nursery and Reception classes, where dedicated and experienced teachers provide structured learning through play, in a Reggio-inspired environment, that is both dynamic and engaging. Children then progress through Primary School, following a well-planned and tested programme of study. Through the International Primary Curriculum, we are able to teach the National Curriculum in a thematic way.
Our Secondary School offers an educational programme based on the National Curriculum for England. In Years 9 to 11, students work towards their I/GCSEs. In the Sixth Form, students are given the choice of pursuing the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) or the International BTEC Levels 2 or 3 Diploma in Business, equipping them with vital knowledge and experiences for the future.
Dover Court is a community with inclusion at its heart and we are proud to provide an environment where students of all abilities flourish. Through three distinct, yet fluid, learning pathways, we provide tiered levels of support, challenge, and personalisation. We are passionate about inclusion, and it is our mission to nurture the potential of every single student in a dynamic and challenging learning environment.
Students who do not speak English as their first language can access additional support through our English as Additional Language Programme. English levels are measured by using assessments that link to the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) so that we can best meet the needs of each student.
