Expat parents looking for well-established primary schools that offer premium education at pocket-friendly fees have limited choices. Especially those with more than one child are burdened with exorbitant school fees. **Why are international primary schools in Singapore expensive?** On an average, international primary schools in Singapore cost somewhere in the range of SG$ 18,000 – SG$38,000 per annum. However, for ninety percent of the schools this amount is only indicative of the Annual Tuition Fee on top of which parents have to pay for extracurricular activities that the child pursues at school.  Thus, the total cost of sending the child in an international primary school in Singapore turns out to be hefty for expat parents who have no choice but to select a private international school for their children. *Looking for an affordable international primary school in Singapore that offers quality education? Check out the* [*Annual Tuition Fees*](https://singapore.globalindianschool.org/admissions/fees) *at GIIS that offers a robust primary school education.* **How does GIIS stand out as a premium but affordable primary school?** The mission of [GIIS](https://singapore.globalindianschool.org/) is to provide equal educational opportunity to all. With Excellent education, outstanding facilities and a nurturing environment, the primary education at GIIS is an impressive package with fees that are 40% lower than other international schools in Singapore.

Hence, we offer a choice of curricula to the students who can choose between IB PYP, the most recognised international framework for primary years and CBSE, the national curriculum of India that equips primary grade students with deep academic knowledge. ![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/6W-ehIxnWqSL2h1qCqfU5nEkO0RQiwFZlgq-KyKp8lPoVNE67PVuOiem2ce4TGX7RPj1d4VyhYiu77CC_Fw-gld9lFBtZeWZOzYTlTOXld0259LGvUjcQEENSj5wSyz1CqEK4z5D) *Students can choose and switch between two curricula* GIIS is the only school in Singapore that offers an international curriculum like IB PYP at a fee which is 40% lower than other international schools in Singapore.
