Admissions at SJK
Admission into the Middle Years Programme
A Community Of Learners
Students in Grades 7-10 begin their educational journey at SJK in our Upper School in the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP). SJK students strive to embody the characteristics of the IB Learner Profile: Inquirer, Knowledgeable, Thinker, Communicator, Principled, Open-minded, Caring, Risk-taker, Balanced and Reflective.
SJK values high standards of conduct, academic achievement and teaching. We have respect for each other, our environment, history, traditions, and ourselves. We welcome applications from students who share those values. First and foremost, we want to admit students who want to be at SJK, who believe that SJK will help them to achieve their goals, and who want to make the most of their SJK experience, in and out of the classroom.
"SJK has a lot to offer, including simply belonging to a community that shares a set of core values and a perspective on the world. For many students, that alone is a transformative experience."

SJK accepts and reviews applications on a rolling basis, starting in August the year before entry. Our first offers of admission are typically extended in mid-October.
Admission to SJK is competitive. As such, we encourage interested candidates to submit an application early. As we attract more applicants than we have spaces available, we are not able to offer admission to all qualified candidates.
