Epsom International Boarding School fosters a positive and ambitious ethos within a nurturing, supportive, close knit community. Our students combine a love of learning and the pursuit of academic excellence.
When my daughter was about 13 or 14, she expressed a desire to study in an international school and she was pushing this idea of moving away from a Singapore environment, an international environment.
Eventually we decided that Epsom was going to be a good choice for her. I felt that she grew as a person and I could see her pounds and her stride and we felt that she was really genuine into the education stream with a lot more confidence and more importantly she looked forward to the class. And she said to me, rather impressively, that she was now learning rather than just studying.
I remember in my years discussions with my daughter in the initial stages of finding out how she felt at Epsom, the one thing that struck me was that she said to me, "Daddy, when you give a wrong answer, it doesn't translate into a criticism, it translates into a discussion" and then the teachers engage you and try to understand what made you give that answer that you did and they're trying to understand you from all aspects.
She found that journey very enjoyable but I must say that with the help of her teachers in Epsom, they gravitated her towards her potential. They provided her the right journeys to reach the destination that my daughter wants because at the end of the day, it is the channel that is integral, not the parents' aspirations or the teachers' aspirations.

I have a son in Year 11 in Epsom. My son's always been quite good at sport, and he gets huge opportunities here to do that. But also with things like the Interhouse Choral Competition, he got a chance to sing, which is not something that he would normally do, and he really enjoyed it.

I have a 16 year old and she's currently in Year 12. I need to highlight the fact that in Epsom she was able to demonstrate and to grow into a leadership position. She has honed her creativity and in Epsom there are ample opportunities for her to perform.
