ABOUT SSC

SSC is the first and only provider in Cebu of the world-renowned Singapore curriculum covering PreSchool, Primary School and Lower Secondary. A private, non-sectarian international school, SSC also offers the world’s most recognised University qualifications, namely the Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) for Upper Secondary and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP) for Pre-University.

 

Since our establishment in 2010, our campus population has reached 90% of its full capacity. SSC’s strength lies in our ability to nurture each pupil’s potential, helping them and their class achieve their goals.

 

We look forward to welcoming children and families who share our passion for growth, learning, and making a positive impact in the community.

 

We are an affiliate and sister school of Singapore School Manila.

WHAT’S HAPPENING IN SSC?

TESTIMONIALS

  • As I sit in my classes at an Ivy League school, my growth nurtured at SSC is pivotal to my journey. I studied at Singapore School Cebu for 13 years and proudly call it my second home. SSC offers more than world-renowned curriculums; I was surrounded by teachers and staff who genuinely cared for me and wanted the best for me. It’s a community where everyone knows your name and supports you like family. SSC’s yearly SHOUTOUTS show how the school is forward-thinking and always striving for improvement. We are taught mindsets that strengthen us, mould us to become life-long learners, and implore us to consider how we can contribute to the community. I also appreciate how SSC set me up for success. The encouragement to lead helped me grow from House Representative to President of the Pupil Council. Opportunities to maximise our potential (i.e. joining academic olympiads and debate competitions) built my confidence and grit. SSC also provided many resources that allowed us to dream big. Without it all, I wouldn’t be the person I am today, a university student at Wharton.

  • I spent six years at SSC, starting in Secondary 1. The school provides a wide variety of programs and events to always bring something exciting for the students, teachers, and staff. The school not only prioritizes academics but also the accumulation of various experiences. Thus, students take part in activities that allow them explore their interests, engage with the community, and foster creativity. I still remember the Goodwill Games, an annual sportsfest where the level (or should I say fever) of participation and teamwork is truly exceptional! The foundation I built at SSC, particularly through the IGCSE and IB programs, continues to support my academic journey today. The research and critical thinking skills I developed are essential in my current studies at Seoul National University. But beyond academics, the most rewarding aspect of my experience at SSC was the strong community. With a small class size, I formed meaningful bonds with my classmates, whom I still keep in touch with today.

  • My son and daughter were both students at SSC for four years before we moved abroad. They entered the school having previously studied at another school in Cebu. SSC is a friendly school based around the principles of a family where both academia and social development are taken very seriously. The school offers in my opinion a very rounded education with a carefully curated balance of study, personal development and activities to prepare children for the future. Both of my children were very happy there and we all miss the drive and passion of the management and staff, who always aim high and do everything with a heart. Having experienced other schools both in Cebu and in other countries; if Singapore School Cebu was on my doorstep where we now live, I would enrol both my children there again within a heartbeat. Sadly they don’t yet have a branch here in the UK.

  • Any formation requires a sturdy foundation. The foundation that my children have received at SSC is playing an immense role in their current life. SSC has helped them build confidence with public speaking exercises and debates. I can see the exceptionable progress they had before joining SSC and now. All the credit goes to the SSC staff. The support, guidance and encouragement have helped both my daughters become more successful in their school and community. After joining SSC for three school years, my daughters Krutika and Disha have had many accomplishments in school, such as writing books, learning Mandarin and preparing multiple presentations. All these activities have made them substantial and modest. Our daughters are now determined to make their own decisions and accept responsibility for success as well as failure. SSC is truly one of the best school for our children. T. Trixie, the School President, is a role model for them, always steady as a rock but forever with a sweet smile. Before ending, we would like to say a special 'Thank You' to all the Kuyas and Ates for being supportive and taking utmost care for their safety and wellbeing when on the school premises. Thank you, team SSC.

  • My name is Shion Iimura. Currently I reside in Japan and I am in my final year of high school. I moved to Cebu in 2015 and attended SSC for three years. I was excited for this experience as I wanted to learn English and expand my understanding of another country’s culture. One of the highlights of my time at SSC was my involvement in the W.I.S.E.S. (Walking In Someone Else’s Shoes) program. In this program, we visited the developing area of Umapad. It was the first time for me to visit a developing area. I was shocked that so many children were living in such squalid conditions compared to my childhood in Japan. Before visiting Umapad, my dream was to create my own company and work around the world. However, my involvement in the W.I.S.E.S. program changed my mind. Other people need help to live a happy and healthy life. For this reason I am aiming to study medicine at university. Once I complete my degree, I want to help small children and people in need.

SY SHOUTOUT

Alongside our strong academic programmes and character-building initiatives, we introduce SHOUTOUTs that shape the essential mindset for our learners and community. Our current call to be THINKERS IN ACTION (inspired by Ron Ritchhart’s “Cultures of Thinking in Action”) is especially timely as we face a world of growing disruptions and distractions, with AI poised to take on much of human thinking. Together, we journey through self-examination and collective reflection to cultivate the mindset, skills, and practices needed to meaningfully enhance education and life itself.

ADMISSIONS

My Team and I look forward to assisting children and their families who wish to join our school community here at SSC.
