Singapore’s public education system is globally recognized for its excellence, but private schools like Heritage Academy offer distinct advantages that may be a better fit for certain children, particularly those from international backgrounds or those who require a specific learning environment.
The Benefit of Flexibility
The primary difference lies in flexibility. While public schools must adhere strictly to a national curriculum and timetable, Heritage Academy’s private structure allows us to offer the ACE Curriculum, which can adapt its pace and content delivery to the individual student. This means we can accelerate gifted students and provide immediate, targeted support for others.
Personalized Learning and Support
Private schools are often able to commit to smaller class sizes, translating directly into personalized learning. In our classrooms, teachers have more time for one-on-one mentorship, ensuring no child falls behind and every child is challenged appropriately. This level of attention is challenging to replicate in larger public school settings.
Holistic and Skills-Focused Education
While academic results are crucial, private education at Heritage Academy places a strong emphasis on holistic education. We integrate character development, emotional intelligence, and a diverse range of co-curricular activities into the weekly schedule. Our goal is to develop well-rounded leaders, focusing on critical thinking and communication skills alongside academic knowledge.
If your priority is a flexible, highly personalized, and character-driven education, private schooling may be the ideal pathway.
