At One World International School (OWIS), we know that your children are your greatest life assets. You manage your money carefully in order to provide for your family, but the value of your balance sheet simply can\u2019t compare to the relative value of investing in your child\u2019s education. By investing smartly into their education you are opening the doors to the rest of their lives. You are helping to develop them into successful global citizens with a diverse range of skills and knowledge.<\/p>\n

Educational Return on Investment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Like any other investment, your stake in your child\u2019s education must be optimised in order to generate maximum returns. You must also know that you are making the best decision for your child, not only financially, but also in regards to opportunities that the school will offer. At the present time, the total annual cost of a private education in Singapore hovers around $40,000 for a single child. This is a sizeable sum by almost any standard!<\/p>\n

This amount obviously grows for families who have more than one child in education, so it is essential that you are confident that you are making the best investment. It is also important that you feel confident that the school you choose will be suitable for each of your children\u2019s individual needs and that the appropriate support, if required, is available. So, if the time has come to choose the right school for your children, we want you to secure a happy and productive future for them by making a SMART investment with OWIS.<\/p>\n

The Incredible Value of OWIS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dedicated to developing lifelong learners with a spirit of inquisitiveness and independence, OWIS offers an exceptionally high-quality international education in a supportive multi-cultural environment. While the academic excellence of our diverse curriculum is aimed at building the innovative professional leaders of tomorrow, our holistic approach is designed to produce well-rounded and well-balanced members of a global citizenry. We offer an extremely supportive and nurturing educational environment and we are proud of the facilities that we are able to offer. The campus itself is beautiful and functional, filled with happy staff and students.<\/p>\n

The green and spacious grounds of our campus offers a peaceful and tranquil place to think, grow, and learn — away from the hustle and bustle of the inner city. Our commitment towards developing students who are \u201cone with the world\u201d is epitomised by bringing the outdoors inside throughout the campus, employing elements of the natural world. Children have the opportunity to experience nature first hand, for instance in our \u2018natural library\u2019 that contains rainforest flora and fauna. This aids their educational experience not only by creating a calm environment, but also to enhance and compliment their learning.<\/p>\n

The Bona Fides for Success<\/strong><\/p>\n

A member of the Global Schools Foundation, OWIS adheres to the standards of the International Baccalaureate\u2019s Primary Years Programme<\/a> (PYP) in Primary School and follows a modified U.K. curriculum with accreditation through the Cambridge International Examinations Board. OWIS was acquired by the Global Schools Foundation (GSF), the winner of nearly 100 prestigious educational excellence awards, GSF currently supports 20 campuses in 7 different countries. The GSF aims to build future leaders through a futuristic curriculum that helps students to adopt 21st century skills. It helps develop students into competent and confident global citizens whilst integrating formal and informal learning together. By leveraging the considerable experiences and resources of the Global Schools Foundation, OWIS is poised to reach even loftier academic heights for an unprecedented educational ROI.<\/p>\n

When it comes to making a solid investment in the future, you simply cannot do more for your 3 to 16-year-old than to enrol them at OWIS. After taking a close look at all existing economic and socio-political criteria, we can confidently say that OWIS is the smartest place to invest your educational dollars if you want to reap maximum benefit for both you and your child.<\/p>\n
