Hwa Chong International School (HCIS;) is a co-educational international school in Singapore that offers high-school education. It is an affiliated school of Hwa Chong Institution.
Founded in 2005, Hwa Chong International School (HCIS) is part of the Hwa Chong family of schools. As a local international school, half of the students are Singaporeans or Permanent Residents, a requirement of the Ministry of Education (Singapore).[1] The rest of the student body comprises international students from over 20 countries.
In November 2007, Hwa Chong International School hosted an International Youth Forum on Global Warming, attended by students from several countries.[2]
HCIS was one of the three IB schools in Singapore chosen to host the International Baccalaureate Asia Pacific Regional Workshop in March 2009.[3]
In 2020, a video went viral of a bullying case in HCIS. One student was shown pushing another boy towards a mirror in a toilet, holding the boy by the shoulders. He then told him to "laugh at yourself" and "laugh like hell". There was "no malice intended" in the case of a boy who was filmed taunting and beating up a fellow student in a toilet, Hwa Chong International School (HCIS) said, adding that the clip in question was over a year old.[4]
