Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
1. Book a school tour to determine if Raffles Kidz is the right fit for your child. After the tour, the enrolment team will reach out to discuss the centre's programmes and the bilingual English–Mandarin approach. The Ang Mo Kio centre offers Pre-Nursery (18–30 months), Nursery (30 months–4 years), and Kindergarten (5–6 years). Enrolment is open year‑round subject to availability, and registration may be completed up to 12 months before the intended start date.
2. Complete the registration by paying a deposit equal to one month's school fees, paying one month's advanced school fee, and paying a registration fee. Submit the enrolment form and the required documents as part of registration. The enrolment team will review the submission and confirm eligibility. A welcome letter will be issued if the registration is successful, outlining next steps for the start date.
3. Receive a welcome letter and invitation detailing what you need to prepare for your child's first day. The letter provides checklists of documents to bring, any uniform requirements, and orientation information. It confirms the start date and classroom assignment for the enrolled slot. If a slot is not available immediately, parents will be guided through the waitlist process described separately.
4. If the centre is full, there is a waitlist. To be placed on the official waitlist, pay the waitlist fee. When a slot becomes available, the next parent on the waitlist is contacted, with priority given to siblings or enrolled students who have requested an earlier start. If you reject a slot within three months from the start date, the waitlist fee is forfeited; if a slot cannot be offered within three months, the waitlist fee is refunded in full.
Waitlists exist for every centre. To be placed on the official waitlist, pay the waitlist fee. When a slot becomes available, the next parent on the waitlist is contacted, with priority given to siblings or already enrolled students who have requested earlier start. If you reject a slot within three months from the start date, the waitlist fee is forfeited; if a slot cannot be offered within three months, the waitlist fee is refunded in full.
