International schools have different grade or year placement systems. At GESS, we follow a 12-grade placement system and a 31 July age placement date. Like most international schools in Singapore, the school year is from August to June.
The below table is a reference guide to help you understand comparisons to other school systems. If your child is coming from a southern hemisphere (January to December) school year or April to March school year, there will be differences in the grade placement. Please contact the Admissions Team for advice and more information.
