As a school established in Hong Kong by the Ministry of Education of Singapore, the syllabus, examination requirements, and admission system are all consistent with those in Singapore. Because of its outstanding IB results and emphasis on mathematics and science, Singapore International School has a good reputation in Hong Kong and is also one of many Hong Kong schools. The school of choice for children of business celebrities. Feynman, the son of actor Ng Chun-yu, Chen Ziye, the eldest son of Chen Hao and Aimee Chen, Ren Qingjia, the daughter of Simon Yam and Qi Qi, and Li Liren, the eldest son of Hacken Lee and Sandra Lo, have all studied here.


Compared with many international schools in Hong Kong, Singapore International School (Hong Kong) is undoubtedly more rigorous in teaching; at the same time, it is much more relaxed than local traditional schools in Hong Kong. It can be said that the Singapore International School of Hong Kong (SISHK) adopts a Westernized teaching method. The essence of elite education is that it is neither completely "free-range" nor too traditional, strict but not harsh. With such compatibility and adaptability, the school is very popular among local parents in Hong Kong.


The school has included Chinese as a compulsory subject starting from kindergarten. Moreover, Chinese is taught in simplified Chinese characters, school-based textbooks are used, and classes are taught in Mandarin. There are also graded teachings for children of different ages. From kindergarten to the second grade of primary school, the proportion of Chinese and English accounts for 50%. Starting from the third grade, science classes will be added and Singapore textbooks will be used, and the proportion of English will also increase. It is very friendly to many new immigrant families. Campus life is rich and offers a wide variety of sports interests, including badminton, basketball, cross-country, fencing, etc. However, in terms of swimming class arrangements, children will only have swimming classes in primary school grades, middle schools will not be equipped with swimming classes, and the duration of physical education classes is only 30 minutes.


In terms of art, children must learn the shepherd's flute in music classes. In terms of dance, children are asked to do basic dances such as stretching and folk dances. In terms of art, I personally think that the level of innovation is not high and it is more traditional. The school is most proud of its drama class. It has hired professional drama teachers to provide students with extracurricular drama classes in Chinese and English.


In terms of language teaching, both English and Mandarin are both first languages, and English is the medium of instruction for most subjects and activities. The Secondary School offers Chinese as a second language to students whose native language is not Chinese. Singapore International School is one of the few schools in Hong Kong that uses Simplified Chinese as the language for teaching Chinese.


In teaching STEM subjects, the school instills the spirit of scientific inquiry by encouraging students to use more practical experiences and open-ended investigations. In teaching information and communication technology subjects, the school uses an incremental approach to teach children media production technology and basic network development. and programming, or higher-level computer science; in terms of mathematics teaching, SISHK is very academically rigorous in mathematics courses.


In the humanities and social sciences, the school will provide children with critical and independent thinking skills through exploration, investigation, and explanation.


Among the 2023 IB results, Singapore International School achieved excellent results. A total of 2 students received a perfect score of 45 points, another 2 students received 44 points, and 4 students received 43 points. 42.3% of students scored 40 points or above, and the average IB score was 38 points, ranking tenth in Hong Kong, far higher than the world average of 30.24 points. The 2023 IGCSE results are not inferior either, with 76.5% with distinction (A and A*)
