Founded in 1996, Suzhou Singapore International School (SSIS) has established itself as a pioneer in international education in Suzhou, China. As the first and largest international school in the area, SSIS holds the distinction of being a fully authorized IB World School. With a rich history spanning over 27 years, SSIS is committed to providing a rigorous, holistic education to cultivate global citizens and life-long learners.Our philosophy is rooted in two fundamental principles: We believe that all children can learn, and We are all responsible for all the children all the time. These principles serve as the bedrock of our approach to education, shaping every aspect of our teaching and learning environment.

We place a high priority on creating a collaborative, inclusive, and differentiated of instruction learning environment that celebrates the unique talents and abilities of each student. We firmly believe that every child is capable of achieving success, and we are dedicated to offering the necessary support and resources to unlock their full potential across various domains.

At SSIS, purposeful and meaningful learning takes place in an inclusive and safe environment with competence, compassion, and a range of individual and collaborative experiences. Students learn how to learn and are appropriately challenged to think critically and creatively, use their voices with confidence, take action, and embrace opportunities for growth.

With a diverse student population in mind, SSIS provides an international curriculum that enables students to more easily integrate back into their 'home' country or another country when they leave China.

SSIS offers three IB programs including PYP, MYP and DP from preschool to Grade 12 along with a German curriculum in the elementary school. A strong partnership between students, faculty and parents, enables SSIS to maintain a rigorous and challenging education.
