Dulwich College (Singapore)

About Dulwich College (Singapore)

Dulwich College (Singapore) is one of the leading international schools in Singapore. It was opened in 2014 and is an academically selective school that will have over 2,000 students at capacity. In DUCKS, Junior and lower Senior School, the College follows an enhanced form of the English National Curriculum, incorporating elements of the Common Entrance syllabus. From the age of 10, our students are taught by subject specialist teachers in subject specific learning spaces. The College is an IB World School authorised to offer the IB Diploma as well as the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE).

Curriculum

All of our students are encouraged to participate in sporting competition and every child from the age of seven is taught a musical instrument. Drama and opportunities for public speaking feature heavily from an early age. As an internationally-minded school we believe in the importance of our young people acquiring confidence and competence in languages other than English. We offer a dual language programme in English and Mandarin for children from two to seven years of age and daily Chinese classes, streamed according to ability, from the age of four. Additional modern foreign languages are offered in our Senior School.

All of this is encompassed within a strong pastoral support programme, which is firmly rooted in our House system. Our students have a strong sense of identity and belonging, and good 'old fashioned' values of respect, courtesy and good manners are recognised and reinforced.

Facilities

The College has state-of-the-art facilities and classrooms on a purpose built campus designed to be green, natural, spacious and airy. Each school has its own discrete area in landscaped grounds. The design of our campus revolves around three main focal points to support the holistic learning philosophy - a green, sustainable urban environment, an open and conducive learning community and a reflection of shared values of community and culture. Our facilities include three libraries, a Performing Arts Centre with three theatres, three swimming pools, sports fields, roof-top gardens, gymnasiums, three dining rooms and two coffee shops.
