Introduction

Singapore International School Dhaka (SISD), established in 2001, offers an English-medium education from early years through A Levels. The school combines the Singapore curriculum in the early and primary years with the Cambridge pathway in later stages, allowing students to progress to IGCSE and A Level qualifications. Students study core subjects including mathematics and science using the Singapore approach, alongside English and Mandarin language learning. The school provides facilities to support academic learning and co-curricular activities, including spaces for science, arts, and physical education. A distinctive feature of SISD is its integration of the Singapore curriculum with international examinations, particularly its emphasis on mathematics and Mandarin. Students transition from foundational learning to internationally recognised qualifications within the same school. Instruction is delivered in English, with Mandarin offered as a key additional language subject. Transport services are available for students.
