Hei Schools Singapore Bishan was founded by pioneering educator Jayne Nadarajoo, who previously established White Lodge Preschools, Avondale Grammar School, and Melbourne International School. The school operates in formal collaboration with the global HEI Schools network and the University of Helsinki in Finland. Its foundation is built upon decades of research into the Finnish early childhood education system, focusing on play-based learning and child development. The center was established to bring this specific educational model to early years students within the Singaporean context.
The school fosters an international learning community connected to the global HEI Schools network. Its immediate community is built on an inclusive, non-competitive environment that actively encourages children and families to learn and belong together.
The school does not publicly disclose information regarding a formal Parent Teacher Association (PTA) or specific parent-led groups, activities, and events.
HEI Schools Singapore Bishan is an early childhood center located at 11 Binchang Rise. Catering to children aged 18 months to six years, the school follows a bespoke curriculum rooted in the Finnish education system, co-developed with the University of Helsinki. The campus features outdoor park areas designed for daily nature exploration and hands-on environmental education. A distinctive feature of the school is the HEI Bridges program, which provides an inclusive framework to support neurodivergent learners within mainstream settings, aided by an on-site Senior Occupational Therapist and Clinical Psychologist. Students engage in inquiry-based projects focusing on early literacy, numeracy, and practical life skills. Learning is organized around four frameworks that emphasize exploration and forms of expression like visual arts and music. Founded by educator Jayne Nadarajoo, the center focuses on equipping young learners with foundational skills before their transition to primary education.
