Big on Community: Our strong, supportive, close-knit community of students, teachers, parents and school administrators, is the foundation of Chatsworth’s education experience. Since its establishment, Chatsworth has built and maintained a small school ethos and we take pride in providing a nurturing and trusting environment where students are given the space to explore, learn and grow.

Holistic Education with a Difference: At Chatsworth, holistic education means creating an environment that cultivates character development and personal learning. The IB Learner Profile is embedded into everything we do at Chatsworth and the entire school community is encouraged to recognise and support these attributes. Highly qualified and dedicated teachers that represented about 20 nationalities offer a truly international education. Our learning technologies are progressive and grounded in 21st Century learning: we are an Apple and Google school with a 1:1 MacBook programme running from Year 4 upwards.

Excellent Campus Locations: Chatsworth has two international campuses, one in central part of Singapore in Orchard and another amidst lush greenery in Bukit Timah. Orchard campus caters to students from Kindergarten through Year 6 (Grade 5) while Bukit Timah campus is a K-13 (Grade 12).

“My favourite thing about being a student at Chatsworth is the community at school. I feel completely at home. The students at Chatsworth are wonderful to be around and there isn’t ever a boring day at school. I can always count on my friends to cheer me up. I also love that teachers are very involved in the school community, and they have a great relationship with the students.”

- Keshav Nair, Year 12 student

“After thorough research, we decided on an IB curriculum because we liked the ethos and wanted a curriculum that is easily transferable if we were to move in the future. During our first visit, it was clear to see that Chatsworth was different; there was a family-friendly and supportive atmosphere, and I felt an immediate emotional connection.”

- Karen Sessions, mother to two students at Chatsworth
