Government schools are heavily subsidised by the government (although the cost of educating a student in a government school, at about S$6000 annually, is broadly similar to our fees). Government schools are therefore able to charge lower fees. We nevertheless offer good value for money, by including courses government schools do not provide, English Academic Programme, London IGCSE, AUSMAT (Year 11 & 12), BTEC Higher National Diploma (Business) and St. Francis Baccalaureate and enrichment activities like Performing Arts, Physical Education and French and Japanese language enrichment.
