BlueSky In Singapore
With its green environment, incredible food, first class schools and amazing
medical care, Singapore is hailed by many as a modern utopia. Here are some
of the reasons to join BlueSky Education Programmes in Singapore:
Singapore is one of the world leaders in education and is home to some of the world’s top
20 universities* such National University of Singapore (NUS), and Nanyang Technological
University (NTU). NUS has also been named the Best University in Asia for few years in a
row.
Singapore is a great place to learn English because it has the highest English proficiency
level in Asia. English is the language of instruction in its schools and universities, as well as
being Singapore’s official business language.
Singapore is the only country in Asia where you can have a real life English conversation
with local people
The teachers at BlueSky camps in Singapore are native English teachers
Singapore is one of the world's safest countries.
Singapore is also one of the cleanest and least polluted cities in the world and enjoys a
warm tropical climate all year round, making it the perfect place for outdoor excursions.
Singapore is a world class tourist destination with many renowned museums, shopping
centres and attractions which are all easily accessible by coach and public transport.
Visitors to Singapore get to experience life in a multicultural cosmopolitan city. This gives
our students the opportunity develop a deeper understanding and respect for other
cultures and traditions. BlueSky students can take the opportunity to sample all the
delicious cuisine from the region during weekly visits to Singapore's famous hawker
centres.
* QS 2019 World University rankings: NUS ranked 11th and NTU at 12th
