International schools

• Budget: SGD 15,000–22,000 per year (primary)
• Mid-tier: SGD 25,000–38,000 per year (primary)
• Premium: SGD 38,000–55,000+ per year (primary and secondary)
• Curricula: British, IB, American, Australian, etc.

Private schools

What to budget

• International/private: Add registration, capital development, learning support, board exams.
• Total cost over 3–5 years matters more than annual tuition alone.
