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. Pre-Course Counselling:
Parents will receive detailed information regarding course structures, academic prerequisites, and English proficiency standards. A dedicated counselling session is conducted to guide families through critical administrative details, including the Fee Protection Scheme and Refund Policy. This ensures that parents have a complete understanding of what to expect before moving forward.
2. Academic Readiness Assessment:
The prospective student must undergo a placement test to determine their academic proficiency and ensure they are placed in the suitable course level. This assessment involves written examinations in English and Mathematics, as well as an oral component to evaluate speaking and listening skills. The objective is to ensure the student possesses the necessary foundation to successfully integrate into their target year.
3. Application Submission:
Once a course level is recommended, parents must submit the completed Application Form alongside a non-refundable application fee of SGD 545.00. At this stage, families must also email all required soft-copy documents, such as birth certificates, passport data pages, and previous academic transcripts.
4. Acceptance & Student Contract:
Upon review of the application and placement test results, the school will issue a formal Letter of Offer. Parents are then required to sign the Standard Private Education Institution-Student Contract and the Form 12 Advisory Note. This step is crucial as it legally protects student rights and outlines clear terms regarding refunds and course details.
5. Student's Pass Application:
For international students requiring a Student's Pass, Stalford Academy will submit the application via the ICA SOLAR+ system on their behalf. Parents should be aware that the school only assists with the submission, and the actual granting of the pass is entirely subject to the approval of the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA).
6. Fee Payment & Orientation:
Following the signing of the Student Contract, course fees become due. Parents must pay the course fees in full prior to the course commencement date. This strict payment deadline applies to all students, including those still awaiting Student's Pass approval.
Stalford Academy accepts applications year-round on a rolling basis. The school does not specify the operation of a waitlist or a pool system for applicants.
The school does not publicly disclose any information regarding the availability of scholarships or financial aid programmes.
Stalford Academy (Tiong Bahru Campus) offers a "Dual Track" curriculum that integrates the Singapore local syllabus with Cambridge International standards (Primary, IGCSE, A-Levels), allowing students to prepare for both international qualifications and the Admissions Exercise for International Students (AEIS). The school integrates technology into its daily instruction, using Interactive Flat Panels and Chromebooks. Specialized facilities include the ArtScience Makers Studio equipped with 3D printing and robotics, two EdTech Studios, and an NEA-registered wet laboratory for Biology and Chemistry. A distinctive feature of the school is its robotics programme, where students design autonomous systems and compete in the National Robotics Competition. Students also participate in the Duke of Edinburgh's International Award, fostering resilience and teamwork. As an authorized Cambridge English exam center, Stalford provides targeted English as an Additional Language (EAL) instruction led by native speakers to support its international student body.
