GCS Singapore is founded by a passionate entrepreneur, Madam Claire Chng, who believes in holistic learning. GCS adopts an integrated, holistic approach to teaching and learning, significantly preparing students to face academic challenges and using their academic learning as a foothold for their emotional and social development. This ensures that they encounter long-term successes in their pursuits in an ever-changing landscape.

GCS is a Private Education Institution that offers academic and (PEI-ATO) industrial focused progression to degree programmes and courses to enhance the competencies of individual learners. It facilitates students in their acquisition of knowledge and skills, enabling them to thrive in a fast-changing world. GCS educators are qualified practitioners in their respective industries, possessing credentials recognised in the industry.  GCS is registered with the Committee for Private Education (CPE) Singapore.

Besides diploma programmes, our school has prepared students for the English Language Paper for Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE) , IELTS and AEIS Intensive English Camps. Since the commencement of our weekly enrichment classes in 2015, our students have made remarkable improvements and performed beyond expectations under the tutelage of an ex-principal.

Since 2010, GCS has been organizing and hosting the SCCCE Art Festival, a component of holistic learning, based on the premise of connecting to the community. This annual event promotes traditional Chinese culture and values and provides a meaningful platform for international cultural and art exchange programmes. GCS’s initiatives to organise and pave the way for students from Singapore and other countries to learn in communion and share experiences have been highly commended by the communities.
