Friendly and Intimate School Environment


Experienced and Caring IB-Trained Teachers
Holistic IB PYP Curriculum
At OWIS Nanyang, we follow the IB Primary Years Programme, with learning objectives underpinned by the standards of the National Curriculum of the UK. Students build a strong foundation in English, Maths and Science and Social Studies through the Units of Inquiry. They also have weekly specialist lessons in Art, Music, ICT, Physical Education and Mandarin. Through the IB PYP, students learn to be proactive early on while they are in Primary School. We prepare them for the challenges of the IGCSE and and IBDP by encouraging them to think independently, ask questions about the world around them and explore topics of interest.


Kind and Truly Multicultural School
Through various cultural awareness initiatives, students learn to appreciate other cultures and respect different points of view. With kindness, diversity and inclusivity at the core of our school’s DNA, your child becomes part of a safe, healthy and truly international school community built on mutual trust and respect.
We also prioritise character development by teaching timeless values and creating a safe environment for children to try new things, build self-esteem and develop a lifelong love of learning through a balanced mix of traditional and technology-driven education.

“Each theme holistically covers various subjects”
One World International School is a great school because it teaches primary school students how to be kind and respectful to each other. We’ve found that kindness as a value is prioritised by everyone at the school. We’re also happy with the teachers for the attention they give our children and for encouraging them to improve all the time. On the academics side, we have been satisfied with the programme where each theme holistically covers various subjects.

Why consider the IB PYP for Primary School Education at OWIS?
Every Child is a Unique Individual
We value and treat every child as a unique individual. To achieve optimal personal and academic growth, we personalise your child's learning journey based on their specific needs, interests and progress.

Rich selection of extracurricular activities
Your child has plenty of engaging co-curricular activities to choose from at our international primary school in Singapore.
Low student-teacher ratio
In our small class sizes, your child benefits from greater personal care and attention. Being part of a small and nurturing classroom environment also helps students form more meaningful connections with their teachers and peers.
Engaging school life
Exciting school events, unit shares, performances and educational trips planned throughout the academic year, make student life in the Primary grades at OWIS Nanyang very fulfilling.
School-wide nationality cap
To ensure all 70+ nationalities are equally represented across our school body, we cap enrolment of students coming from a single nationality at 30%.

Reasonable tuition fees
As a not-for-profit educational institution, we reinvest back into our school to continuously improve our quality of teaching. That way, we can deliver the highest quality of education for reasonable primary school fees.
Optional Programmes for Building Language Proficiency in Primary School

English as an Additional Language (EAL) Programme
We support young learners who are new to English through our optional English as an Additional Language (EAL) Programme. Through engaging classes and personalised instruction, our EAL teachers help your child develop the language skills they need to access the school curriculum and form stronger social connections in the community.

Chinese-English Bilingual Programme
Aligned with the IB PYP, our optional bilingual programme for the Primary School grades provides students with an immersive experience in each language and culture. By expanding their proficiency in Mandarin and English, children gain an invaluable competitive edge for the future.
