Overzicht
Dover Court International School is a British international school in Singapore with inclusion at its heart. Part of the Nord Anglia Education family. We offer a broad, balanced and differentiated programme based on the English National Curriculum and enriched with International Primary Curriculum with students working towards GCSE and IB. Your family will join a caring international community that welcomes everyone, celebrates individuality, and prioritises wellbeing. Supported, inspired, and engaged in their learning, we’ll help your child shape their own journey to success. We are located in the educational district of Dover in the west of Singapore.
De school is gevestigd op een ruime campus van 12 hectare met een uitgebreide buitenruimte omgeven door groen, een zwembad, een zintuigentuin en meerdere speeltuinen. We hebben speciale ruimtes voor wetenschap, muziek, designtechnologie, kunst en drama, evenals een makerspace waar onze leerlingen kunnen leren, creëren en ontdekken door middel van praktische activiteiten.
DCIS starts with the Early Years Foundation Stage in our Nursery and Reception classes, where dedicated and experienced teachers provide structured learning through play, in a Reggio-inspired environment, that is both dynamic and engaging. Children then progress through the Primary School, following a well-planned and tested programme of study in a range of subjects. Through the International Primary Curriculum, we are able to teach the National Curriculum for England in a thematic and engaging way.
The Secondary School at DCIS is a blend of practical experience and experimentation, books, discussions, lectures and technology, allowing your child to learn at a rapid pace. Our curriculum offers a thematic approach to education within subject areas, which helps bring learning to life. Our Secondary curriculum is driven by our vision and values, with a strong focus on breadth, depth, and wellbeing. We are proud to offer I/GCSEs as part of this comprehensive curriculum. We frequently collaborate with academic leaders to review and refine our approach, ensuring it meets the needs of our Doverians and equips them with the skills and knowledge they need for a successful future.
De zesde klas, jaar 12 en 13, van DCIS biedt het International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme en het International BTEC Diploma in Business aan ter voorbereiding op toekomstige studiemogelijkheden die onze studenten mogelijk volgen. Het International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) is een tweejarig programma. Om het IB-diploma te behalen, studeren alle studenten zes vakken: drie op hoger niveau en drie op standaardniveau. Daarnaast schrijven studenten een uitgebreid essay en volgen ze een cursus kritisch denken getiteld 'Theory of Knowledge'. Deelname aan CAS is ook vereist. Het IBDP wordt geaccepteerd door universiteiten in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, Noord-Amerika, Australië en over de hele wereld. De BTEC is een beroepsopleiding die studenten voorbereidt op toekomstige studie of op de eerste stappen in hun carrière.
Students whose first language is not English receive targeted support through our EAL programme up to Year 9. Using CEFR assessments in speaking, listening, reading, and writing, we determine each student’s proficiency and the level of support required. EAL learners remain in mainstream classes, where teachers adapt lessons and teaching assistants provide additional help. They also attend specialist‑led intervention sessions twice daily during English and Mandarin, totalling approximately 1.5 hours. Support continues until they can confidently access the curriculum independently. Students are assessed regularly, and once proficiency is reached across all four skills, they exit the programme but continue to be monitored.
Onze afdeling Ondersteunend Onderwijs biedt een omgeving waarin leerlingen met alle niveaus kunnen floreren. Het is onze missie om het potentieel van elke leerling te stimuleren in een dynamische en uitdagende leeromgeving.
As part of Nord Anglia Education, NAE, DCIS is also part of a global community of over 65,000 students who collaborate together through the Global Campus. Every Global Campus activity is designed to enrich learning experiences with opportunities beyond the ordinary. From expeditions to Switzerland to visual arts and creative writing competitions, the children are inspired to be ambitious in their learning and to collaborate globally. Nord Anglia Education takes an innovative approach to learning, particularly evident in the collaboration with MIT in developing real-world challenges across the subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering Art and Mathematics (STEAM). Our performing arts programme comprises music, drama and dance and is supported by Juilliard through NAE, with regular visits from Juilliard curriculum specialists.
