Canadian International School Singapore - 7 Jurong West Street 41

It’s a pretty nice school, but the food can be expensive and they could take the excursions more exciting but relatively nice teachers and pretty good service. There is also an amazingly high level of education in the school. Probably a 8/10.

First of all, some of the teachers don't teach. They give the impression that they have a good demeanor and personality towards all everyone, however that's false. There's lack of diversity despite being an international school so some students may feel left out. When you are put into groups for work, barely anyone in your group does work. This could potentially affect your motivation to do the work. For the languages (in my case chinese) The teachers think that it will take 1 year to move up a phase without covering up every thing...... Seriously. Overall not as good as I thought it would be. (Glad i'm leaving). Just nonono

This school provides a high standard of international education supported by extensive facilities and a balanced campus life. There are many school events and good arts programs. Many of the students in higher years excel in diverse subjects and have social lives, as well as undertaking many after-school activities. That said, the school's workload is so rigorous in higher years that it frequently puts enormous amounts of pressure on students, causing stress and many emotional and mental problems. It is frequent for students in grades 8-12 to miss many hours of sleep a night. Students can drastically reduce social interaction to accommodate an unrealistic and crippling workload. Even the most high-performing, well-organised students have dozens of sleepless nights behind them. After-school activities are heavily encouraged, but often succeed in wasting valuable time necessary for completing schoolwork. The biggest culprits are by far the annual theatre productions for higher grades, which can stretch from 3:45 to 6:00 for over three days a week. This is often coupled with unrealistic expectations and an overloaded schedule, and so causes a great deal of stress. Sports teams are also highly competitive and exclusive, leaving the rejected students with no place to undertake their chosen sport. The school has also overwhelmingly followed the modern trend of pushing students into universities instead of helping them find what they want to make of their lives, creating a system where blindly toiling for an excellent grade is the ultimate goal. Overall, this school has excellent facilities to serve international students and provides a rigorous modern education. It must, however, begin listening to students' voices and respecting students as individuals rather than as a body of hardworking children.

Canadian International School located 2 bus stop away from Chinese Garden MRT station. Main gate is at Jurong West St 41. There is side gate along Boon Lay Way for those who take bus or MRT.

I love this school but the canteen food are expensive. The students here a great and are friendly. The teachers are awesome but some substitute teachers are a bit worse. The playing areas are big enough to play tag, basketball, soccer and so on

I don’t get why people are saying this school is bad? The primary teachers were the best but secondary teachers started to get more strict, but there’s a reason for everything they do or teach. People might be a bit disrespectful but most of the times they are respectful and creative. Why are you all focusing on the negativity when there’s so much positivity to think about. I know you are just giving us your opinion but coming from a student. This is one of the greatest schools I have ever been too, sometimes it can get hard but majority teachers and people make you feel welcome and happy.

As an alumnus, I can say that CIS is probably one of the worst high schools in Singapore. The administration cares nothing about the quality of the universities the school's alumni attend; they prefer quantity over quality and think that listing on their website the hundreds of random, unknown, and poor universities attended affirm the high school's quality. It's egregious. Nobody in CIS's history has been accepted to the top American schools such as Harvard, Stanford, MIT, Princeton, Yale, Chicago, Columbia, and so on. So if you want your child to attend a reputable university, turn elsewhere.

Amazing school for the price, first if all, you get to interact with friends all over the world, I don't get why people say it's bad, IT'S GREAT. The price might be expensive compared to a local school, but in my opinion, it is one of the greatest international schools in the world. The toilets and food need some work but the enviourment and playgrounds are clean. I recommend you go to this school if you are looking for a school.
