About this school
GIG International School (GIGIS) is a Cambridge international school on the eighth floor of the GR.iD building on Selegie Road, central Singapore. It is the flagship school of the Singapore-based Cognizance International Academy (CIA), which began in 2003 as the GIG Education Centre, a Cambridge and London teacher-training certified professional development centre. The school is registered as a Private Education Institution and works alongside the GIG Professional Development Centre, which trains teachers.
Students can join from Class 1 and progress through the Cambridge pathway:
- Classes 1 to 5 (primary)
- Cambridge Secondary 1 to 3 (Grades 6 to 8)
- IGCSE Years 1 and 2
- Cambridge AS and A Levels
The school describes its curriculum as a hybrid that draws on best practice from Cambridge and the IB. It is enquiry- and skills-based, offers foundation and extension material so learners can move at different paces. A bridge programme helps new students adjust.
GIGIS belongs to a network of schools in Asia, India and the Middle East, and its students come from around 14 nationalities.
