Quality: Heritage Academy is an international school of quality with the vision to see young lives transformed and characterized by excellence. EduTrust status is a significant “trust mark” that distinguishes Heritage Academy as a high-quality institution in Singapore’s competitive private education sector. Administered by SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG), this certification proves that the school has surpassed basic registration requirements to meet rigorous standards across seven key areas: leadership, corporate governance, academic processes, student protection, support services, financial viability, and performance outcomes. For parents and students, this status provides objective assurance that the school consistently maintains high academic quality and student welfare. Practically, it also certifies the school’s reliability, as EduTrust is a mandatory prerequisite for enrolling international students who require a Student’s Pass.
Affordable: Heritage Academy strives to make quality education accessible and affordable for all students. The school offers competitive and reasonable fees as compared to other EduTrust registered Schools. This is coupled with various payment options and schemes to help with parents’ financial considerations.
Holistic Education: Heritage Academy aims to provide a holistic education that nurtures the whole person – intellectually, spiritually, emotionally, physically, and socially. The school also offers a range of co-curricular activities, such as sports, music, art, drama, and community service, to enrich students’ learning experience and foster their talents and interests. For our high school students, Heritage Academy gives students opportunities to develop leadership skills through uniformed groups and class leadership positions. Students learn dedication, preparation, time management, and how to compete, which are valuable avenues for developing a student holistically.
Accessible locations: Heritage Academy has campuses strategically located near housing estates with easy access to public transportation, such as MRT stations and buses. This brings convenience and cost savings to parents. The school has four campuses located at Khatib, Hougang, Thomson, and Bukit Gombak, each with well-equipped classrooms and a conducive learning environment.
Academic pathways: Heritage Academy prepares students for their future academic and career aspirations by providing various pathways and options. The school offers both the American High School Diploma as well as our Heritage International Curriculum. We also have partnerships with other private Universities and Colleges to expand academic options for our students beyond the High School level. We are a school with a big heart and are determined to help our students to achieve their academic aspirations.
What is the SkillsFuture Singapore EduTrust Framework?
The EduTrust framework evaluates the following key aspects of a Private Education Institution (PEI):
- Academic Processes: Ensuring the quality and effectiveness of educational programs.
- Corporate Administration: Assessing the institution’s management and governance.
- Quality Management: Monitoring processes to maintain high standards.
- Student Protection and Welfare: Safeguarding students’ well-being.
- Continuous Improvement: Encouraging ongoing enhancements.
- Positive Performance Outcomes: Focusing on successful student outcomes.
This comprehensive framework sets requirements for both PEI applicants and certified PEIs, covering policies and operations across these criteria. Its goal is to recognize PEIs that consistently provide high-quality education services and strive for continual improvement toward positive student outcomes.
What does it mean to achieve ACE Quality Status?
The A.C.E. School of Tomorrow® program recognizes schools that achieve Quality Status recognition. This recognition is earned through academic, technical, and spiritual excellence.
Schools must earn this designation annually, verified by an A.C.E. ministry representative. Most importantly, achieving status signifies the school is effective in motivating students and maintaining high academic standards while nurturing godly character.
