Stamford American International School

Stamford American International School offers a holistic education for students from 2 months to 18 years of age. We’re the first and only school in Singapore to offer Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP) and Business and Technical Education Council (BTEC) Diploma curricula, together with a US-accredited High School Diploma. As an inclusive school, we are also home to over 75 different nationalities and was recently awarded Silver at the inaugural Honeykids’ Singapore Education Awards 2021 in the category of International School of the Year.

We are a big school, with the heart of a small school. At Stamford American International School Singapore, we believe in the power of belonging. A student's sense of belonging relates to the feeling of acceptance and connection with fellow students, teachers, and the school community.

At Stamford American, our vision is to inspire students to create their unique future academically, socially and as ecologically literate citizens in our culturally diverse world. Our students have the opportunity to choose a sought-after education pathway to help realize their academic ambitions. They are also equipped with life skills reflective of the International Baccalaureate (IB) Learner Profile as adaptive, thoughtful and principled young adults, with a fostered inclination to design, innovate, solve problems and communicate.

At Stamford American, we accommodate global language learning for children as young as 18 months. Through our World Language Program, we offer daily instruction in 3 of the world’s most widely spoken languages—Mandarin, Spanish and English. Coupled with our community-based Mother Tongue Program, Stamford American's language curriculum offers literacy in more than a dozen languages.

Students who are keen on dedicating more time and effort into learning a second language can join the Bilingual Program at no extra cost. Stamford American also offers an English as an Additional Language (EAL) program.

Stamford American also has an Innovation Center that can be adapted to accommodate various creative activities. Together with the Makerspace, these spaces make up a creative hub that inspires students to use different learning technologies to access new ideas and methods. Everyday immersion in technology is supported through a 1:1 iPad Program for children in Kindergarten 2 to Grade 5 , and a 1:1 MacBook Program for Middle and Secondary School students.

Music, Performing Arts and Visual Arts are also included in the curriculum and Stamford American is one of the few schools in Singapore with onsite SAT and ACT test centers, offering college preparatory tests for secondary students from Grade 10. There is also a dedicated Academic and College Counseling Team that is tuned in to the requirements of universities all over the world.

Stamford American is equipped with state-of-the-art classrooms, theatre, science labs, quiet study spaces, spacious libraries, gyms, pools, etc, and our teachers thrive in this well-resourced environment and leverage it to promote active learning for our students. Their teachers are not only professionals who possess deep knowledge of content and pedagogy, but they also know how to build relationships and help students feel safe and valued.

As an IB World School, Stamford American offers the IB Primary Years Programme (IB PYP), the IB Middle Years Programme (IB MYP) and the IB Diploma Programme (IB DP). But we’re much more than that. We are the first and only school in Singapore that offers Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP) and Business and Technical Education Council (BTEC) Diploma curricula, together with a US-accredited High School Diploma. These multiple pathways are designed to inspire students to create their own unique future.
