Principal’s Message
Principal’s Message
Welcome, and it is a pleasure to introduce you to Singapore International School @ Saigon South. Our school and its programs provide a unique and successful study pathway within the international school community located in Vietnam.
Singapore International Schools are the largest network of international schools in Vietnam. Common to our schools is a focus for students, on Eastern values and Global education.
This blending of values and education is quite unique and can’t be found anywhere else in the country. These tenets are embedded within the Singapore, Cambridge and Australian curriculums used by the teachers at this campus and throughout all SIS schools.
INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED ASSESSMENTS AND INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAMS
We provide internationally recognized assessments and instructional programs including:
- Singapore’s iPSLE Examination
- Cambridge IGCSE and A Levels
These xaminations and instructional programs provide a unique study pathway from our school to universities around the world.
These various study pathways provide many options for both students and parents to consider in the long-term planning of their child’s education into a post-secondary school environment.
CERTIFIED, ENGLISH SPEAKING TEACHERS FROM AROUND THE WORLD.
We are fortunate to have the opportunity to employ certified, English speaking teachers from around the world. Currently, teachers working at Saigon South represent many different English speaking countries.
Together, they strive to provide a well-rounded education for all students.
At SIS, we promote our Schoolwide Learning goals.
Our schools seek to nurture:
