The campus is listed at 301 Zhujian Road, Minhang District, Shanghai. SSIS follows a blended curriculum pathway that includes the Singapore curriculum at lower levels, Cambridge IGCSE in middle secondary, and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (with IBDP and IBCP authorisations noted in the school history). The school describes a bilingual approach (English + Chinese); its Chinese Language & Culture Programme provides banded classes (Advanced / Standard / Foundation) and the preschool programme indicates a roughly 70% English / 30% Chinese instruction ratio. SSIS also highlights a curriculum-integrated golf programme and an on-campus Aquatic Centre.

The Essentials

Shanghai Singapore International School has 1,400 pupils, instruction in English, Mandarin.

Location

Campus address: 301 Zhujian Road, Minhang District, Shanghai (201106). The school is in Minhang, a residential/urban district of Shanghai; it's primarily reached by private car or by the SSIS school-bus network that serves many neighbourhoods around the city.

Stages

SSIS is a K–12 school with three main divisions: Preschool (Early Years), Primary School and Senior School. The senior pathway includes IGCSE preparation and the IB Diploma for upper secondary students (the school serves ages roughly 2–18).

Type

SSIS is a co-educational day school for expatriate students (no boarding provision). Official IB listing notes gender as co-educational and boarding status as day.

Additional learning support

The Student Services team provides Academic Learning Support (personalised learning plans, small-group and one-to-one interventions and exam accommodations), English Language Acquisition support, and social–emotional counselling; the school describes collaborative, integrated support across divisions.

Country affiliation

The school does not indicate a formal national or governmental affiliation. Its programmes explicitly include a Singapore curriculum pathway alongside Cambridge/IGCSE and the IB Diploma.

Religious affiliation

No religious affiliation is stated on the school website (SSIS presents itself as an international, secular K–12 school).

School day structure

Published secondary sources list a typical school day of about 8:30 am to 3:30 pm for students; after-school activities run later (SSIS's ASP sessions and related bus runs extend to around 5:00 pm). Parents should confirm exact daily timings with admissions, as timetables can vary by division and year.

Bus service

SSIS runs an optional, school-managed bus service in partnership with professional bus companies. The fleet is described as more than 70 buses equipped with CCTV, GPS tracking and first-aid supplies; each bus has a trained monitor. Routes cover roughly 300 neighbourhoods across 11 Shanghai districts, and SSIS provides free ASP (after-school programme) drop-offs to a set of locations. For route maps, schedules and booking you should consult the school's bus pages or contact Admissions.
Diving Deeper

Uniform Requirement

The school has a uniform policy. Shanghai Xinxinle Dress Co., Ltd is contracted as the uniform vendor, and uniforms are ordered online with delivery to home addresses. The Sabres Store on campus provides sizing and fittings.

Food Options

The school provides catering with an in-house kitchen and publishes weekly menus planned by the Head Chef, including options across Chinese, Western, Japanese, Korean, and Southeast Asian cuisines. Produce mainly comes from Mahota Farm on Chongming Island, with other licensed suppliers; vegetarian meals and dietary accommodations are available. Food samples are retained for 48 hours and the kitchen is regularly inspected to ensure safety and compliance.

House System

The school uses a House System with four houses: Ruby, Amber, Pearl, and Sapphire. All students and staff belong to a House and remain in the same House through their SSIS journey, including younger siblings. House activities include sports, music, debating and other competitions, with House points tallied to determine an annual Championship.

Governance and Ownership

SSIS was founded and invested by Prime Group International. The Core Leadership Team leads the school, guiding curriculum development and daily operations.

Academics

Shanghai Singapore International School teaches Singapore Curriculum, Cambridge IGCSE, IB (MYP), IB (DP), IBCP (International Baccalaureate Career-related Programme) for students aged 2 to 18.

Curriculum

SSIS operates a K–12 pathway: Preschool (Pre‑Nursery–Kindergarten 2), Primary (Grades 1–6), Lower Secondary (Grades 7–8), a two‑year IGCSE course for Grades 9–10, and a two‑year IB Diploma for Grades 11–12. The Preschool programme aligns with Singapore's Nurturing Early Learners framework, and the Primary curriculum draws on Singapore Math and Science together with Cambridge Primary English. Lower Secondary follows the Cambridge Lower Secondary programme to prepare students for the IGCSE years, which in turn lead into the IB Diploma in Senior School. Chinese language and culture are taught across all stages with banded Advanced/Standard/Foundation classes from Grade 1, immersive culture lessons, and options to take Chinese at IGCSE and within the IB Diploma. The academic programme is complemented by structured co‑curricular activities (CCA/ASP) and specialist sports and arts offerings—examples include formal after‑school clubs as well as school programmes in golf and swimming.
Wellbeing

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

SSIS states that its Student Services Team has prioritised an enhanced Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) programme and embeds SEL across all divisions. The school references use of recognised SEL frameworks (including links to Harmony and ISCA materials) and describes Primary Pastoral Care lessons as opportunities for students to develop social and emotional skills. Counsellors and the Student Services team work with teachers to integrate SEL into curriculum lessons and run related parent workshops. These initiatives are described in school newsletters and the Student Services overview on the SSIS website.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

SSIS describes Academic Learning Support within its Student Services provision, stating it offers personalised learning plans, differentiated instruction, small-group interventions, one-to-one mentoring and assistive technology to support students with diagnosed learning needs. The school's public pages list dedicated Learning Support staff and a Director of Student Services with qualifications and experience in Special Education, indicating an in‑school specialist team. SSIS also states that accommodations and modifications are available for assessments. The school's website does not enumerate specific diagnostic categories supported (for example dyslexia, autism spectrum disorder or ADHD) on its publicly available pages. SSIS is presented as a mainstream international school with in‑school learning support rather than as a specialist SEN institution.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

SSIS publishes an English Language Acquisition (ELA) programme for Grade 1–6 and a Cambridge English programme, and describes ELA specialists who collaborate with classroom teachers to integrate language support across the curriculum. The school's tuition page lists a fee for the English Language Acquisition (ELA) Programme for Grades 1–6, confirming a formal, fee‑based ELA offering. The faculty directory also names an ELA Coordinator and ELA teachers, indicating staffed provision. These materials show SSIS publicly discloses active EAL/ELA support rather than no provision.

Mental Wellbeing

SSIS provides individual and group counselling through its Student Services Team and names counsellors assigned to different divisions on its site. The school states counsellors offer crisis intervention, pastoral care lessons, and work with teachers to embed wellbeing into the curriculum. SSIS newsletters and staff profiles describe parent workshops on topics such as executive functioning, supporting teenagers and home wellness tools. The Director of Student Services is presented as having responsibilities for wellbeing and inclusive practice. These counselling and wellbeing supports are described on the SSIS website.

Safeguarding

SSIS states it has a Child Protection Policy, a Campus Safety Committee, and a zero‑tolerance position on bullying, neglect or any form of abuse. The school's public pages describe practical safeguarding measures including staff safety training (first aid/CPR/AED), visitor ID procedures, segregated toilets, and strict student‑release processes. Pastoral Care lessons are identified as part of students' education about personal boundaries and safety. SSIS indicates these child protection procedures are communicated to staff and parents and provides contact points on its website for enquiries. For the full policy text and procedural detail the school directs readers to its Child Protection Policy and school contacts.
Parent Experience

History

Shanghai Singapore International School (SSIS) was founded in 1996, opening its first year with 18 students and nine teachers. Over the next two decades the school expanded campuses (relocating to Hua Cao Town in 2001 and adding a second campus in 2003), grew its secondary provision, and obtained authorisations for international programmes in stages (including IB MYP in 2003 and the IB Diploma Programme in 2005). The school continued physical and programme development through the 2010s and into the 2020s—adding facilities such as an aquatic centre and staff residence, integrating campus locations in 2019, completing a major expansion in 2020, and earning WASC accreditation in 2025. These milestones and programme authorisations are documented on the school's history page.

Community

SSIS describes its community as a partnership of a diverse teaching faculty, parents and students; the teaching staff come from more than 20 countries and the school highlights active parent engagement and alumni connections. The school regularly runs community-facing events and projects—examples in recent years include school fairs, seasonal celebrations, family activity days and school-hosted public events such as TEDx and the International Family Bazaar. SSIS also promotes community involvement through outreach and volunteer projects that connect students and families with broader service activities.

Parent Teacher Association (PTA)

At SSIS the parent body is organised as the Parent Support Group (PSG); its stated mission is to enrich student life and the wider SSIS community through involvement in educational, social and charity events. The PSG operates as a volunteering platform and is led by an Exco Committee that plans and runs events each year; parent volunteers contribute skills and time across activities. Regular PSG-organised activities named on the site include Book Week, Santa's Workshop, Chinese New Year celebrations, International Friendship Day, the Teacher Appreciation lunch and the International Family Bazaar. Parents who wish to volunteer are invited to contact the PSG Exco Committee at psg@ssis.asia. In addition, SSIS runs a Parent Education Programme of workshops for caregivers and families (delivered by staff, parent volunteers and external providers) to support lifelong learning for parents; enquiries for that programme can be sent to community@ssis.asia.

These authorisations indicate the school meets the IBO's programme and implementation requirements.

Admissions

Admissions

1. Create an OpenApply account. SSIS requires every applicant to register an OpenApply account before submitting an application or signing up for an Open Morning; this account is how the school sends all application notifications. Parents should register on SSIS's OpenApply link and keep the account login details and email address current because the admissions team uses it for test schedules, invoices and final offers.

2. Complete and submit required documents via OpenApply. The school lists specific document sets depending on the applicant's family status (for example: expatriate families, Hong Kong/Macau/Taiwan citizens, children born in foreign countries to Chinese citizens, and families with SHMEC approvals), and documents must be translated into English or Chinese by an authorised translation company. Bring original documents to the Admissions Office for verification on the day of the Admissions Assessment; common items include the SSIS Registration Kit, Code of Conduct (G1+), Confidential Recommendation (G1+), birth certificate, vaccination record, latest school report and parent residency/employment paperwork. Review the document checklist carefully because omissions will delay processing.

3. Pay the application fee (and note its timing and refund rule). After you submit documents you will receive a proforma invoice from SSIS Finance; the application fee must be paid at least five working days before the scheduled Admissions Assessment. The SSIS tuition-and-fees page lists the Application Fee for AY2025/2026 as 2,500 (amounts published by the school) and states the fee is non‑refundable and valid only for the applying school year — plan to submit payment promptly using the accepted methods (bank transfer or on‑site by card/cash). Keep the bank receipt or card payment confirmation; the admissions office will require proof on occasion.

4. Attend the Admissions Assessment. All applicants must complete an Admissions Assessment; once SSIS has a complete application they will contact you with the assessment date and details. Register for a test date through the Admissions Test page (the form asks for applicant name, passport, DOB, grade applied and preferred test date); parents should arrive on campus prepared to show originals and arrive early so the child can settle — the school provides test dates and registration instructions via OpenApply or the Admissions Test form. If your child requires language support or special arrangements, contact admissions in advance to discuss accommodations.

5. Receive outcome and pay the matriculation (registration) fee. Successful applicants receive an SSIS Admissions Notification; once you receive the notification you must pay the Matriculation Fee within five working days to confirm the place. For AY2025/2026 the Matriculation Fee is shown as 20,000 on the SSIS fees page and is described as non‑refundable and not applicable against tuition — budget for this payment and retain the confirmation for school records.

6. Complete enrolment payments and service selections. After place confirmation you will be invoiced for tuition and any optional services (examples published for AY2025/2026: annual tuition by grade, the ELA programme, and school bus fees). Tuition amounts published by SSIS for AY2025/2026 are shown on the school site by grade band (examples: Pre‑N to K2 ≈ 200,000; Grade 1–6 ≈ 260,000; Grade 11–12 ≈ 300,000) and the ELA programme (Grade 1–6) and bus fees are listed as separate charges — check the Registration Pack download for payment deadlines, instalment options and refund/withdrawal policies. Confirm preferred services (bus route, ELA enrolment) before the school start date because some services require full pre‑payment.

7. Practical notes and contact details. Keep copies of all submissions and receipts, and check OpenApply frequently for messages from SSIS during the process.

Scholarships

Historic scholarship programmes and current status: SSIS has run scholarship programmes in the past and published details in a school news update (posted April 23, 2020) that described three scholarship types — IBDP scholarships (two tiers: an ‘Excellence' award covering 100% of tuition and a ‘Merit' award covering 50% tuition for the two‑year IB Diploma intake) and Aesthetics and Athletics awards (each described as covering 50% tuition with annual renewal conditions). The 2020 news post also described an application process that included submission of papers, interview by a scholarship committee, specific eligibility by grade band and published deadlines for that year. Because the SSIS Scholarships page currently shows a placeholder message (“Stay tuned for more info on scholarships”), these published 2019/2020 details should be treated as historical and subject to change. For current scholarship availability, eligibility criteria, application forms and deadlines contact scholarships@ssis.asia or the Admissions Office — they can confirm whether the IBDP, Aesthetics or Athletics scholarships (or any other financial assistance) are being offered for the intake year you are applying to. Additionally, SSIS lists a School Services Request form that references a Financial Assistance Scheme (FAS); if you need need‑based support or formal financial‑assistance information, request the school's FAS documentation directly.

Waitlist

SSIS does not publish a public waitlist or central ‘pool' policy on its website pages for admissions; the admissions pages and the online admissions sections do not describe an open waiting-list procedure. Because many international schools manage places internally (for example holding offers, running year‑level capacity checks, or placing applicants ‘on hold' when classes are full) the most reliable way to learn current availability or whether you would be placed on a waitlist is to contact the Admissions Office directly (admission@ssis.asia, +86 21 6221 9288 or the enquiry form on the SSIS site). If you need a formal waitlist status for planning (work visas, housing, or timing) ask the admissions officer to confirm in writing whether a place is available or if your application will be held on a waiting list and what position or expected timeframe applies.
