About EtonHouse
The EtonHouse International Education Group is headquartered in Singapore with more than 100 international schools spread across 12 countries. Founded in 1995, EtonHouse has been at the forefront of international education offering innovative pre-schools and K-12 schools across Asia.
A K-12 Pathway – playgroup, pre-school, primary, secondary, high school
EtonHouse has 4 international schools and 10 standalone pre-schools located in different parts of Singapore, offering a strong programme for playgroup, pre-school, primary, secondary and high school years.
In the early years, children develop literacy, mathematical and scientific understanding as well as problem-solving skills through meaningful child-responsive experiences.
The primary school campuses at Orchard, Broadrick Road (East Coast) and Thomson and Sentosa follow the inquiry-based IB curriculum. The Broadrick campus is one of the oldest and most highly regarded IB schools in Singapore offering a strong and genuine second language programme in Chinese, Hindi and Japanese, while the Thomson campus was Singapore’s very first IB pre-school.
Students transit to the Orchard campus from secondary years onward. They are offered the academically rigorous and internationally recognised Cambridge IGCSE programme. Robotics, visual and performing arts, sports are all key features of the primary and secondary years education. The IGCSE programme offers a foundation year in Year 9 followed by the IGCSE course delivered in Year 10 and 11. This provides students with a greater breadth of the subjects taught and a foundation year in Year 9 where they will access Key Stage 3 while also building the skill sets needed to be successful in IGCSE.
At high school, students undertake the rigorous and comprehensive IB Diploma course which is highly valued by international universities. The school offers a S.M.A.R.T programme focused on Science, Mathematics, Art, Research and Technology. Inspired by Google’s ‘20% Time’ concept, students are tasked to curate their own SMART projects, with the guidance of their teachers. Students who join in Year 11 can also opt for the school’s bespoke Foundation IB (FIB) programme. The holistic nature of the FIB ensures that students are extremely well prepared for the IB Diploma programme which is undertaken in Year 12 and 13.
Strong Mandarin Foundation
EtonHouse has a well-regarded second language programme that has proven to develop a strong Chinese language foundation at a very young age. In the early years, children are immersed in a bilingual environment and pick up English and Mandarin spontaneously and effectively.
Its Zhong Hua campus located in Hwa Chong International School is the first childcare centre in Singapore to have a 100% Chinese Immersion programme where children are exposed to a single language environment for an extended period of time in a day. The programme is so well-received by parents that they have extended the Chinese Immersion Programme to Robertson Walk and Mountbatten 717 campuses from 2020 onwards.
EtonHouse International School Broadrick was the first international school in Singapore to offer a truly dual-language programme in English and Chinese. It emerged champion at the Singapore Chinese Competition for International Schools (Crestar) for two consecutive years. Families can choose between a mainstream programme where Mandarin is offered as an additional language or the bilingual immersion programme which offers intensive Mandarin exposure to students with competence and a strong interest in Mandarin.
Innovative Learning Environments
At EtonHouse, teachers pay great attention to create unique learning environments to inspire students and provoke their thinking. Innovative learning spaces include sensory gardens, tinkering areas, and dedicated studios for construction, visual and performing arts. Learning is not restricted to the classroom. Rather, students have multiple opportunities in a day to spontaneously go out of their classrooms or outdoors with teachers who work alongside them to support and facilitate their investigation, observations and research.
Exceptional Teaching Staff
The team of educators and specialist teachers at EtonHouse are highly qualified and dedicated. They are supported by the Group’s in-house research and training arm, EtonHouse Education Centre, that focuses entirely on the quality and professional development of its teaching staff. The EtonHouse ratio of teacher to students is very rich so as to deliver a programme that is highly individualised and in tune with students’ interest.
