  Hub for Educational Excellence - , a Global Schoolhouse
  Over the years, has evolved from its traditional British-based education system to one that endeavours to meet the needs of individuals and seeks to nurture talents.
   
  The strength of 's Education system lies in its bilingual policy (English with Malay/Mandarin/Tamil) and a broad-based curriculum where innovation and entrepreneurship command a premium.  Individuals acquire the relevant skills and abilities to survive in competitive environments, equipped for a brighter future. 
   
  's public schools have a distinctive record of high standards in teaching and learning, illustrated by international comparative studies such as the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) that showed the majority of students from schools outperforming the international average in Mathematics and Science. Our students have also excelled in competitions such as world debating championships (English) and International Olympiads (Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology), ousting counterparts from other countries to clinch top prizes and distinctions.
   
  At the tertiary level, in addition to boasting 3 locally grown universities, has attracted 10 world-class institutions with strong industry links to set up centres of excellence in education and research.  Among them are respected names such as the leading French university - INSEAD, the renowned Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and leading US business schools such as University of Chicago Graduate School of Business.
   
  Even after graduating into the workforce, there are numerous opportunities for further training. Professional and skills-based training are offered and popularly subscribed to. It is not uncommon to see the likes of seminars by management gurus like Michael Porter or lectures by visiting dignitaries.
   
  The presence of such an international mix of institutions, a high quality and rigorous education system, and a nation that believes in investing in education, will together offer students here and all over the world, an enriching and fulfilling learning journey.
  
  
  Stable Economy
  With a GDP of S$161 billion in 2003, the island state though small in size and population (4 million people) has become a reputable financial centre, a key regional trading centre, the world's busiest port, and a top location for investment. Often cited as a model for transparency, efficiency and political stability, has earned recognition from around the world.

The Swiss-based World Economic Forum (WEF) also rated as the most competitive economy possessing great innovative ability and a solid macro economy in the world. Even in the recent global battle against SARS, 's diligent and hands-on approach has won recognition from the World Health Organisation.   
  
  
  Infrastructure and Accessibility
  is well connected via sea, air and telecommunications to all parts of the world. Singapore Changi Airport serves more than 60 airlines which fly to over 145 cities and has for many consecutive years been nominated as the best airport in the world. is also probably the most wired country in Asia , with an Internet penetration rate of 42%.  Housing ownership is encouraged by the government to give citizens an asset in the country. About 85% of Singaporeans are living in government-built housing. 
   
  Seamless accessibility to all parts of the island is available in this country, often recognised for its quality and efficient land transport system.  The introduction of an EZ-link card - a contactless stored value card where consumers need only flash the card in front of a card reader that automatically deducts the required travel fare, is an example of the continuous commitment by the government to make travel faster and easier. 
  
  
  A Multicultural Nation with a High Quality of Life
  The nation's rich multicultural heritage is highlighted through the various ethnic groups (Chinese, Malays, Indians, Eurasians) living together harmoniously who have gradually acquired a distinct identity as Singaporeans whilst still maintaining each race's traditional practices, customs and festivals. In addition, with more than 90,000 professional expatriates living and working in , they too bring their unique cultures and perspectives, adding colour and vibrancy to cosmopolitan . 
   
  's high standards of living is also something that students can be assured of.  In a survey reported in The Economist in March 2002, 's quality of life surpassed that of London or New York . Thirty-nine factors were considered, including political stability, personal freedom, air pollution and the quality of healthcare, schools, restaurants and theatres.
  
  
  A Vibrant City Lifestyle
  may seem like a small dot on the world map, but the island state bustles all over with attractions and activities. Dining and shopping are two of the top-rated activities of locals.  Needless to say, this is reflected in the staggering range of foods and cuisine, as well as the proliferation of shops in the city and suburban centres.
   
  Add on to this a thriving arts and cultural scene, especially with the opening of Esplanade - Theatres on the Bay, featuring top artistes from all over the world. Ethnic districts such as Little India, Chinatown , Malay Village give a flavour of the culture and history of .  Lots of fun and funky events such as the Great Singapore Sale, Singapore Arts Festival, festive light-ups and many others make a most "happening" place to be in. is also strategically located at the heart of Asia and can be a hub to explore the Southeast Asian region.
