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.
KinderWorld International Group was founded in 1986 in Singapore. In the late 1990s, KinderWorld expanded its operations into Vietnam. KinderWorld opened KinderWorld International Kindergarten (KIK) centres in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City in 2000, and Singapore International School (SIS) campuses in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City in 2004. The Singapore International School at Bình Dương New City (SIS@BDNC) is part of the KinderWorld network. The BDNC campus sits on a 2.6-hectare site on Le Loi Street in Bình Dương New City and operates a through-train model from Kindergarten to pre-university. A Phase 3 expansion planned around 2025 aimed to boost facilities and capacity to 2,400 students.
The SIS@BDNC campus is part of an active, values-driven school community that participates in out-of-school activities to build environmental and societal awareness across the KinderWorld network. Public materials describe a range of community and cultural events, including a Christmas charity fair, Lantern Festival, World Water Day, and volunteer visits to local causes, with parents and students contributing to charity efforts. The school emphasizes character development and soft skills such as teamwork and presentation as part of daily learning and school life.
A formal Parent Teacher Association (PTA) for Singapore International School @ Bình Dương New City is not publicly documented in available materials. Parental involvement is visible through participation in events and volunteer activities, such as the Christmas charity fair where parents and students contributed donations and time. In the KinderWorld network, some campuses (for example, Singapore American School) implement a PTA with activities like Open House, International Fair, and volunteer roles. PTAs in international schools typically include volunteering, fundraising, and community events, but BDNC-specific structures are not publicly detailed. If you'd like, I can help confirm whether a formal PTA or a parent advisory group exists at the BDNC campus by contacting the school directly.
Singapore International School at Binh Duong New City (BDNC) operates within the BDNC development as part of KinderWorld's international school family. The campus offers both International and Integrated programmes for students from Pre-Nursery through Senior High, with English as the language of instruction for the English-based programmes and Vietnamese taught as a subject. The school pathway includes Pre-Nursery, Nursery, Kindergarten 1 and 2, Preparatory, Primary, and Junior/Senior High School, reflecting a through-train model that aligns with Singaporean and Cambridge assessment benchmarks (iPSLE, IGCSE, A Levels). The campus houses modern facilities and dedicated staff, including a principal and a Vietnamese studies lead, and emphasizes a Virtues Programme and school-wide learner goals. The school participates in a range of co-curricular and extracurricular activities and maintains an active newsletters program for parents.
