A International Schools in Singapore - HWA International School was established in 2006 as the Chinese culture school in Singapore, formerly known as Chinese International School, continues to uphold the global vision that integrates Eastern and Western values, through the International Baccalaureate (IB) philosophy.
While implementing the International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum system and teaching environment, HWA International School emphasizes the importance of Chinese language and culture. We are proud of the heritage of Chinese cultural traditions and history, but at the same time, we maintain an inclusive attitude towards multiculturalism. In our school, students and teachers from various cultural backgrounds, from East Asia to Central Asia, from Europe to the Americas, are equally recognized.
HWA International School is a forward-looking, modern international school. The school makes full use of the educational resources provided by the International Baccalaureate Organization's international background and Singapore's local educational resources. It adopts an inquiry-based learning method to organize teaching and strives to create opportunities for students to actively participate in meeting challenges. We aim to cultivate students' comprehensive quality and core abilities, help them establish the habit of independent learning and awareness of teamwork, and help them establish a conceptual understanding of knowledge and master the connections between disciplines and application of knowledge. The school is committed to developing lifelong learners and strives to help all individuals succeed.
At HWA International School, every student will receive an education that values the dual use of Mandarin and English while also supporting and respecting their native language. Through their proficiency in both Chinese and English, students will have the opportunity to gain a deep understanding of Eastern and Western cultures. Moreover, our International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (IBDP) consistently ranks above the global average, and in recent years, our pre-university results have consistently demonstrated a high level of academic achievement in Singapore.
With an increasing number of students from China, Europe, America, and Australia, and frequent exchanges, our campus showcases rich and colorful cultural characteristics from various countries. In our HWA International School family, everyone finds their sense of belonging and purpose while hearing familiar bilingual dialogues in English and Chinese.
We believe that creating an environment where the whole person is developed through HWA International School's innovative Chinese-English immersion bilingual program will empower students to embody our school's mission with confidence, become caring, thoughtful, and capable students, and prepare them to be engaged and responsible global citizens in the 21st century in terms of their emotional, social, physical, and intellectual being.
