Frequently Asked Questions

How big are class sizes?

Class sizes vary according to the school year, but are generally no more than 25. However, many classes are often smaller than this, in particular Sixth Form classes where we place importance on small class sizes for individualised learning.

What facilities do you have?

We are proud to call a state-of-the-art 13-acre purpose-built campus home! Please see our Campus and Facilities for more.

Does the school offer any after school activities?

There are a wide range of Co-Curricular Activities (CCAs) on offer to all age groups from Year 1 (TIS) and Standard 1 (SST) upwards, covering all areas of interest including sports, the arts, media, science, languages and more.

What is the House System?

Every student is assigned to one of four Houses when they first arrive. These Houses compete against one another in school sports, arts and academic competitions, offering students the chance to develop a healthy competitive spirit while providing a focus of identity beyond their year group.

How much parent involvement is there in school activities?

There is an active Parents Association that meets regularly with the Senior Leadership of the school. The role of the Parents’ Association is to facilitate contact between parents and staff, while offering new parents a supportive community to be part of at the school. The association also regularly organises events for the school community such as festive celebrations and Family Fun Day.

Parents also have the opportunity to raise issues or discuss learning with teachers and leaders through regular parent forums and parent teacher conferences. In addition, parents of all year groups are regularly invited to school performances, events and competitions to share in the learning and progress of their children.
