  • School Vision

    Every ACSian a young man of character, capability and creativity.

  • School Mission

    ACS (Primary) believes in providing an all-round education in an environment which seeks to bring out the potential in every pupil to the fullest, and to develop in him a strong moral character, imbued with Christian values and principles to guide and prepare him for life ahead.

  • School Philosophy, Culture and Ethos

    The Anglo-Chinese School (ACS), a Methodist Institution, was founded on 1st March 1886 by Bishop William F Oldham, with 13 pupils in a small shophouse in Chinatown. Since 1886, ACS(P) has delivered an all-round education anchored on Christian principles and our Founder's vision which is rooted in Academic Achievement, Strength of Character and Christian Service.

    WE BELIEVE THAT GOD IS OUR STRENGTH AND OUR PROVIDER

    We continue the tradition set by our founder to seek God and honour Him in all that we do, and to be faithful in our call as educators and stewards at developing our young charges holistically.

    WE BELIEVE IN MOULDING AND NURTURING OUR BOYS TO BE THEIR BEST

    The ACSian lies at the heart of our endeavours, as we provide an all-round development for all our boys that is represented by the ACS(P) brand of education. We have programmes distinctive to the ACS(P) education experience that develops our boys in the Affective, Cognitive, Social and Physical domains, so that we can develop in them the four Traits of an ACSian- an iHOPEFUL* Leader, a Creative Learner, an Effective Communicator and a Community Collaborator.

    WE BELIEVE IN PARTNERSHIPS TO DO OUR BEST FOR OUR BOYS

    Integral to our efforts at providing the ACS(P) brand of education are our partners. We believe that partnerships enable the school to realise our common goals. Thus, every partnership that the school harnesses develops our boys in the ACS(P) brand of education. At ACS(P), we CARE-Coach, Affirm, Relate and Enthuse; it is an approach to engender a culture of innovation, care and excellence and it defines our interactions with our students, colleagues and stakeholders.

    Our school's motto, The Best Is Yet To Be, encapsulates our aspirations to continually strive for excellence. With the strong traditions of our institution, we will continue to live up to our motto, for the glory of God.

    *iHOPEFUL stands for integrity, humility, obedience, perseverance, empathy, faithfulness, unity and loyalty
