International Schools in Singapore

Post by OhWhutt » Mon, 02 Jul 2018 1:13 am

*Helping someone repost this to get feedback from this forum*

Hello,
We just found out we'll be moving from the US to Singapore in August and are looking for schools with very little notice! We have a 4th and 6th grader. I did hear back from Chatsworth and CIS and they do have openings. 4 others responded with no availability until 2019.
Any feedback on Chatsworth or CIS?

You want an International School job? School website or http://www.ISS.edu
Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA
You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!

ICS isn't an American school, is it?
