In Brief
The Winstedt School Singapore is a specialized inclusive school founded in 2008, serving students from Reception to Year 13 with learning differences through a WASC-accredited High School Diploma programme. With a remarkable 1:4 educator-to-student ratio and integrated therapy support, it offers personalized education for neurodiverse learners at fees ranging from S$37,600-60,495 annually.
Founded by third-generation Singaporean Sharon Solomon in 2008, The Winstedt School addresses gaps in Singapore's traditional education system by creating an inclusive environment specifically designed for students who learn differently. Located in Kallang at 1208 Upper Boon Keng Road, the school operates with The Winstedt Way™ - a model combining differentiated instruction, inclusive practices, and whole-child development. The school maintains an exceptional 1:4 educator-to-student ratio, ensuring each child receives personalized attention while working closely with an in-house Therapy and Pastoral Care team.
The school offers education from Reception through Year 13, culminating in a WASC-accredited High School Diploma that enables graduates to progress to universities and careers worldwide. Recent curriculum additions include the eXplore pathways: Young Explorers Programme for Years 1-2 and EXPLORE for Years 3-6, integrating Occupational Therapy, Speech and Language Therapy, and social-emotional learning tailored to individual student profiles. Unlike Singapore's mainstream international schools that typically offer IB or IGCSE programmes, Winstedt focuses on flexibility and therapeutic integration rather than standardized examination pathways.
