The Heart of CIS

At Canadian International School in Singapore, our community is the heart of everything we do. Students, staff, families and alumni come together in a culture of connection, respect and shared purpose. Through meaningful relationships and strong partnerships, we create an environment where every learner feels supported, inspired and empowered to grow.

Where students and staff thrive

Students

Our students represent a vibrant international community united by curiosity, creativity and a commitment to learning. From early years to Grade 12, students engage in inquiry-based learning that develops confidence, independence and global awareness.

Beyond academics, students participate in leadership opportunities, service initiatives, athletics, arts and enrichment programmes that nurture character and build lifelong skills. Every experience is designed to support personal growth and a strong sense of belonging.

Staff

CIS educators and professional staff bring global experience, expertise and dedication to every aspect of school life. Together, they create engaging learning environments that challenge students academically while supporting their social and emotional development.

Through collaboration and continuous professional growth, our staff foster a culture of innovation, care and excellence across the school community.

Connected families, supported students

Parents and PTA

Families are essential partners in the CIS learning journey. The Parent Teacher Association (PTA) connects parents across the school through events, volunteering opportunities and community initiatives that strengthen relationships and enhance the student experience.

The PTA plays an important role in building a welcoming and inclusive environment where families feel connected, informed and involved.

Student support and well-being

Student well-being is central to success at CIS. Our comprehensive support network ensures that every learner is cared for academically, socially and emotionally.

Specialist teams provide personalised guidance, counselling, learning support and pastoral care across all grade levels. By working closely with families and teachers, CIS nurtures resilience, confidence and a positive sense of self in every student.

Alumni

Our relationship with students continues long after graduation. CIS alumni are part of a global network of learners, leaders and changemakers who carry forward the values and experiences of their time at CIS.

Through alumni stories, events and ongoing connections, former students remain an active and valued part of the CIS community.
