Singapore International School Can Tho

Step 1 — Understand the Integrated Programme and target year level. Singapore International School @ Can Tho offers an Integrated Programme that runs from Year 1 to Year 9 and is open to both Vietnamese and foreign students. The programme is designed to accommodate students entering Year 1 and continuing through Year 9. Placement into a specific year level is determined by the student's age, placement test results, and the number of available places in the class.

Step 2 — Gather required documents for enrolment (child) and for parents. For the child, assemble four passport-sized photos, the child's passport (one copy), a certified copy of the birth certificate, original or certified copies of previous school reports, and a Health Check Certificate with vaccination records. For Kindergarten to KIK students, include original vaccination records as applicable and an Accident Insurance Plan for the child if you choose to opt into the school's insurance. For parents, provide copies of a foreigner's passport or Vietnamese ID as appropriate. These documents are required to support enrolment into the Integrated Programme.

Step 3 — Submit the enrolment application and enter the placement process. Enrolment into the Integrated Programme depends on age-appropriate placement and the results of the placement test, together with available class vacancies. The school maintains class sizes in line with programme regulations to ensure the standard of teaching and learning. If the placement test results align with a vacant place, the enrolment process can proceed.

Step 4 — Understand how class placement and capacity affect admission. Grade level is decided after considering age, placement test results, and existing class vacancies. Class size is maintained in accordance with school regulations for each programme, which means admission depends on both the test outcomes and the availability of seats in the target class. This helps preserve teaching quality and student support.

Step 5 — Note sibling priority (if applicable). If parents already have one or more siblings studying at Can Tho SIS, priority will be given to a new sibling, subject to available places. Sibling priority does not override age/placement considerations or class vacancies, but it can influence placement decisions when seats are limited.

Step 6 — Final enrolment decision and next steps. Enrolment in the Integrated Programme is contingent on the age-appropriate placement, placement test results, and class vacancies, as well as the ability to fill the requested year level. Once these conditions are met, enrolment proceeds and the student begins the Integrated Programme in Year 1 or the appropriate year level. The school reserves the right to place students according to age, test outcomes, and seat availability.

Step 7 — Integrated Programme context and commencement. The Integrated Programme commences at Year 1 and extends to Year 9, providing a continuous pathway within the Can Tho SIS system. Families should plan for the start of the academic year according to the school calendar and any placement outcomes.
