WELCOME FROM DEAN OF ADMISSIONS
Welcome from the Dean of Admissions
Dear Parents,
Thank you for your interest in our school. As you consider the different schooling options for your child, we invite you to explore our website and visit our campus to attend one of our Admissions Events. On campus, the smiling faces and happy voices of our students will be one of the first things you notice. As you talk with them, you will learn more about their life in school, the subjects they study, and the activities they do. You will soon realize that our students enjoy coming to school and love learning. This is very much what our founding Chairman and Nobel Prize Laureate for Physics Professor Charles Kao envisaged when he founded this school — a place that nurtures the joy of learning in its students. Our inquiry-based pedagogy allows us to prepare our students for the school of life.
Our students are known for their strong interpersonal skills and their effective communication skills in English and Chinese Putonghua. In their final two years, our students study the International Baccalaureate Diploma (IB Diploma) with its broad and balanced curriculum. In addition to its academic rigor, our students have the opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills to community service, gaining valuable experience outside the academic world. We are proud of our graduates who have received offers from leading universities all around the world.
We are a through-train K-12 school that seeks diversity in our student body — racial, ethnic, religious, and above all socioeconomic diversity.
We welcome inquiries from you and hope to welcome you to our campus in the near future. If you are unable to visit us in person, we encourage you to participate in a one-on-one online chat session with either one of our Admissions Staff or Parent Ambassadors. The latter would love to share their experiences with you.
We look forward to you being a part of the ISF Family!
Jo-Ann Seow
Dean of Admissions
