English, Mandarin, Malay, and Tamil instruction across primary and secondary divisions Admissions peaks during January academic year enrolment with mid-year intake Private, independent, and international schools in Singapore - especially around Central Singapore, Jurong, and Tampines - often run Singapore national curriculum, IB, IGCSE pathways with English, Mandarin, Malay, and Tamil instruction.
