EtonHouse supports children from infant care at 6 months through to 18 years, with 10 pre-schools across Singapore and international school campuses at Broadrick and Orchard. Families can stay within the EtonHouse family as their child progresses from the early years through primary, secondary and high school.
Founded in Singapore in 1995 by a mother who wanted children to be respected and experience the joy of learning, EtonHouse has grown into an international education group with around 100 campuses across eight countries, while remaining rooted in strong relationships, personalised education, inquiry-based learning and multilingualism.
In the early years, EtonHouse’s inquiry-based approach, inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, encourages children to learn through curiosity, exploration, creativity and meaningful relationships. Bilingual learning is an important part of the experience, with English and Mandarin integrated into everyday learning across its pre-schools, while selected campuses offer Full Mandarin Immersion programmes. As children progress into primary, they can continue developing their language skills through pathways such as the Mandarin Immersion Pathway at EtonHouse International School Broadrick, where Mandarin is used meaningfully across inquiry, communication and daily school life.
Students progress through internationally recognised programmes including the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP), IGCSE and International A-Levels. Throughout this journey, personalised learning begins with knowing each child well. Educators take time to understand each learner’s strengths, interests and aspirations, so that support and challenge can be shaped around the individual. Strong teacher-student relationships help students feel known, supported and confident to take increasing ownership of their learning.
From primary onwards, EtonAspire becomes an important part of the student experience. This holistic framework extends learning beyond the classroom through opportunities that develop capability, care, creativity, contribution and connection. Students are encouraged to pursue their interests, take on meaningful challenges and engage with real-world experiences, helping them grow not only academically, but also in character, confidence, skills and mindset for an increasingly complex world.
As students move into the senior years at EtonHouse International School Orchard, they benefit from personalised subject-choice, university and careers guidance, helping them identify pathways that align with their strengths, interests and future ambitions. Recent EtonHouse graduates have received offers from leading universities including Imperial College London, University College London (UCL), the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), the University of Toronto, the University of Edinburgh, the University of St Andrews, the University of Warwick and the University of Bristol.

What Sets This School Apart
EtonHouse’s approach to the early years is closely linked to the Reggio Emilia philosophy. Since 2013, EtonHouse has been part of the Reggio Children International Network through REACH, Reggio Emilia in Asia for Children, which represents Reggio Children in Singapore and China. EtonHouse is the only school in Singapore that works directly with Reggio Children, giving educators access to ongoing professional learning and direct engagement with the organisation in Italy. This relationship helps EtonHouse continue to deepen its inquiry-based practice and its understanding of how young children learn.
At EtonHouse, personalised learning is shaped by the advantages of a smaller school environment. Teachers are able to give students more individual attention, adapt learning and feedback more responsively, and develop a deeper understanding of each learner over time. One secondary History teacher, who previously taught more than 300 students in a week at a much larger school, shared how an EAL student who joined midway through the year benefited from differentiated resources, weekly review and lessons connected to her prior learning. Within one term, she progressed from struggling in her first assessment to achieving a Grade B in History, while also becoming more confident in class discussion and participation.
This personalised approach is also reflected in senior-school outcomes. In the 2026 International A-Levels, 45% of grades were awarded A–A*, compared with a UK benchmark of 28.5%. 67% of grades were A–B and 81% were A–C**, while three of the 10 students in the cohort achieved all A and A grades*.
Beyond academics, EtonAspire gives students opportunities to explore interests and build experience in purposeful, real-world contexts. This includes life skills such as financial literacy, time management and study skills; entrepreneurship and passion projects; Global Classrooms and cultural exchanges with other students across the EtonHouse network; mentorships, community partnerships, volunteering and industry connections. Through the school’s Medical Society, students interested in studying medicine or pursuing careers in healthcare engage directly with professionals in the field, learn more about medical developments and healthcare careers, organise a student-led blood drive and volunteer at NUH.
Exciting New Developments
Since August 2026, EtonHouse has brought its wider learner development initiatives together under one programme, EtonAspire, making this broader development an intentional part of the EtonHouse education from Primary onwards.
EtonAspire is built around a simple idea: strong academic results remain fundamental, but the world our children are entering will ask much more of them than what they know. They will also need confidence, independence, creativity, judgement and self-awareness to navigate change and make informed choices about what comes next.
What makes EtonAspire distinctive is that this development starts early and builds year by year, rather than being concentrated in the final years of school. Students develop practical life skills, pursue interests, contribute to their communities and connect with the wider world through experiences such as Passion Projects, Life Skills, Global Classroom, service learning, overseas experiences and, as they grow, engagement with universities, industries and professionals.
Over time, students build an EtonAspire Future Portfolio that captures the work, experiences, reflections and contributions they have developed from Primary onwards. In the senior years, this journey culminates in a Capstone Project, a substantial piece of work shaped around an area of genuine interest and supported by mentors from education, industry or universities. Together with their A-Level qualification, the Future Portfolio and Capstone Project give students more than a record of academic achievement. They help students understand their strengths, make more informed decisions about future pathways and present a fuller picture of who they are and what they can contribute.
School Culture
Its close-knit campuses also foster strong relationships between students, educators and families. Parents are an active part of the school community through regular communication, school events, learning showcases and Parent School Association initiatives, helping to build a strong partnership between home and school.
Care and wellbeing are woven into everyday school life. Students are supported academically, socially and emotionally, while opportunities in leadership, service and enrichment help them build confidence, responsibility and a stronger sense of community.
Across EtonHouse’s diverse international community, the aim is to create an environment where students feel secure to be themselves, confident to participate and supported to grow.
