“An engaging, warm and fun learning environment that offers different opportunities and develops real-life skills in the classroom and beyond”

We have four children enrolled: one in high school, one in middle school, one in primary and our youngest one has started at the Little XCL World Academy Nursery in January 2019.

We wanted an academically strong school that was able to cater to the varied needs of our children. Had passionate educators and at the same time focused on developing a well-rounded student. We were impressed by the staff and facilities from the first visit to the school. Our children settled in surprisingly fast and enjoy the school very much.

XCL World Academy is a truly international school with diverse student and teacher population, excellent facilities and a wide range of extracurricular activities available after school. The staff and students are warm, friendly and kind.

It is an engaging, warm and fun learning environment that offers different opportunities and develops real-life skills in the classroom and beyond. The school also organises educational workshops to assist parents in understanding and supporting their children further as well as social events where you can have fun and meet new friends.

With so many good schools in Singapore to choose from, it’s important that you feel confident in trusting the quality of education on offer. For our family, we wanted a truly international school that was able to deliver programs and opportunities unavailable in the country we were living in previously.
