Affordable Preschool For A Foreigner

Post by noahvictor » Wed, 03 Aug 2022 4:22 am

My name is Noah from Pretoria, South Africa. I plan to move to Singapore in a couple of months. I have a Son who's just 2 years and 9 months. I want to enroll him in a preschool as soon as we get to Singapore, but I am uncertain about the school fee structure in Singapore. Is there an affordable preschool for kids aged 3 ??

Anticipating your candid input.

I think preschools are very expensive even for the locals. They are usually above $1,000 a month per child. I think at this day is probably looking at $1500-$2000 per month.

1000 per month would be the minimum for most preschools. Less than that for PCF Sparkle tots and a few others (I don't remember the other standard ones).

The ones under a 1000 may have more limited operating hours and the care they provide to the kids will usually not be as good as more expensive childcare centers.

Okay. I think that's fine. A thousand dollars is moderate.

Thank you!

That's the minimum. There are many in the 1000 to 1500 range.
