Can foreign children attend Singapore government schools?

Yes, but they need a Student's Pass, school fees are higher than for Citizen and PR students, and Citizens have priority for places. International students joining Primary 2 to Secondary 3 generally need to sit the Admissions Exercise for International Students (AEIS).

You can consider the curriculum (Singapore's local curriculum, IB, British, American, etc.), school fees, language of instruction, your child's adaptability, and future education pathways and destinations.
