The Japan Times - London's Heath House School to Open in Singapore Bringing British Pedigree With Affordable Excellence

SINGAPORE, SG / ACCESS Newswire / May 14, 2026 / Global Schools Group (GSG), one of Asia's leading education networks, has launched Heath House International School Singapore - a new international school from London's Blackheath community, bringing to the Lion City three decades of British heritage and pedagogical excellence with a global vision.

The new international school will open its doors in August 2026* aiming to address a growing demand for high-quality, heritage-backed international schooling in Singapore at an accessible fee level. Since its founding in London in 1993, Heath House has built a 30-year reputation of perfecting a learning environment that is nurturing yet rigorous. The Singapore chapter will expand on its 'British prep school' essence delivering education through a modern, transdisciplinary approach.

The school, for children aged 5 to 14 years, will have defining pillars like:

• Cambridge International curriculum - a robust academic foundation focused on rigour and critical thinking

• The 'Leader In Me' framework - a globally recognised framework that builds character, competence, and the habits of effective leadership in children from an early age.

• Apple-powered digital learning environment - a future-ready campus where technology is seamlessly integrated into the curriculum

"Singapore is one of the world's most discerning education markets, and we believe families here deserve a school that delivers the full promise of British education - academically rigorous, holistically rich, and genuinely accessible. Heath House International School Singapore is exactly that," GSG Chairman Mr Atul Temurnikar said.

The 'Global Advantage' Network

As part of the Global Schools Group - which educates over 45,000 students worldwide - Heath House students benefit from a unique Knowledge Exchange programme which allows students to collaborate with peers across GSG's award-winning campuses in Japan, UAE, the UK and beyond.

"At Heath House Singapore, we aim to nurture children who are confident, capable and curious about the world. They will be academically strong, emotionally resilient and adaptable to meaningfully engage with the global future," said Mr Mark Pearce, Advisor to Heath House Singapore and Principal of Heath House Preparatory School London.

Heath House promises to stand out by offering a "thoughtfully priced" structure without compromising on quality of education like the promise of holistic learning, inclusivity and care and global advantage.

"Heath House will be genuinely accessible to families who deserve the full promise of a British education," said Mr Temurnikar.
