Furen International School (FIS) was founded in 2000 as a Preparatory School. Initially established as a School to equip students for the Singapore’s GCE O-Level Examinations, our offerings have now diversified to include a range of other courses. All of the courses, without exception, are designed with the sole intention of equipping students for success in their university studies. Two qualities are essential for success.
Academic success is highly valued at Furen International School, where we seek motivated students who demonstrate perseverance and industriousness. In order to achieve academic success, Furen International School maintains a close and interactive relationship with our students. All the key individuals, including the Principal, Vice-Principal, Form Teacher, Student Affairs Teachers, and Student Development Manager, play a crucial role in enhancing student performance. For students who demonstrate strong academic abilities, we highly recommend complementing their current studies with additional coursework.
Furen International School is committed to equipping students for university, initially focusing on Singapore’s O-Level studies but has now broadened its range of programmes. The school offers comprehensive courses to help students excel in the Cambridge IGCSE, Singapore-Cambridge GCE O-Level, CIE A-Level, and Singapore-Cambridge GCE A-Level examinations. In addition, Furen International School provides Lower Secondary courses (with a phase-out by 30 June 2019 for the lower secondary) and IELTS programmes to meet a wide range of academic needs. Their commitment to a well-rounded education is demonstrated by their support of students engaging in external events and activities. These include Leadership Camps, SCMUN Conferences, and voluntary programmes such as Willing Hearts, SWAMI Home, and ACE Mentoring Programme. The school takes pride in offering a wide range of student clubs, such as the Debate Society, Drama Club, Dance Club, and Basketball Club. Additionally, it stands out as the first and only private school in Singapore to host both Boys and Girls Brigade.
Furen International School takes great pride in providing a comprehensive education that goes beyond academic achievement. Our focus is not only on fostering excellence in academics but also on nurturing character development. Our goal is to maximise students’ opportunities for admission to tertiary education upon graduation. Their exceptional track record in guiding students towards university success is evident through the remarkable accomplishments of their students, including securing acceptance letters from renowned universities and earning substantial scholarships.
Furen International School involves gaining exposure by actively participating in social causes to expand one’s perspective. They actively engage in various programmes, such as the biannual Cambodia Trip organised by the School’s 108th Boys’ Brigade Company and 89th Girls’ Brigade Company.
The school fosters an environment that nurtures and supports individuals with big aspirations! To excel beyond the ordinary is not just a motto but our reason for being. To gain admission to prestigious universities, it is essential to have a well-rounded application profile that showcases both academic and non-academic accomplishments. We have established strong connections with consultants and application specialists who excel at understanding a student’s aspirations and collaborate closely with them to turn those dreams into reality.
Furen International School is constantly pushing boundaries, consistently advancing. The school implemented an Online Bridging Programme to support students who may need additional academic assistance. They will work diligently to ensure that every student has the opportunity to gain admission to prestigious universities.
