Our History
The Shanghai Singapore International School (SSIS) was established in 1996 to provide quality international education to children of expatriate families in Shanghai. Its first campus was set up in 1996 at the Sun Island Golf Resort in Shanghai’s QingPu District with only 18 students and 9 teachers.
To meet the needs of its expanding student enrollment, the school relocated to the MinHang Campus at ZhuDi Road in MinHang District in 2001. With its growing recognition from expatriate families, a second campus was set up in the XuHui District in 2003 to bring the unique SSIS education one step closer to families residing in the heart of the city, especially those from the PuDong District. In 2006, SSIS celebrated its 10th anniversary with a brand new campus in the MinHang District. With a land area of 64,000m2 and state-of-the-art facilities, the MinHang Campus caters to the learning needs of our young future global citizens.
