Dear Students and Parents,

We are pleased to welcome you to Lorna Whiston EAL School!

Lorna Whiston EAL School is part of the Lorna Whiston Schools Pte Ltd Group which has been established for 27 years and is well known for being at the forefront of English language education in Singapore.  To date, we have 19 classrooms in 3 branches situated across Singapore to cater to foreign students who wish to pursue their studies in Singapore. 

Lorna Whiston EAL School provides intensive full time programmes of study for overseas students who wish to gain entry into Singapore schools. In addition to providing English Language Programmes, students can study Maths, Science and Chinese (optional).  We also offer English language holiday programmes of 1 - 4 weeks duration to overseas students.

We are committed to providing top quality interactive English language programmes to young learners from countries throughout Asia.  Students will be of primary or secondary school age, should be of normal intellectual ability and not have specific learning difficulties.

All of our teachers are fully qualified teachers with Bachelor of Education degrees or an academic degree plus a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education from their own countries.  In addition to this, they are all familiar with the Singapore Education system, and the requirements.  Our teachers' qualifications, credentials and experience can be viewed from our website http://www.lornawhiston.com.sg .  The Head of School is Mr. Scott Dooley, and there is strong adminstrative support as indicated on the enclosed organisational chart.

We are also committed to openness and transparency in our dealings with students and parents, and to promoting integrity and trust in the way we run our business. All our policies are clearly stated in our advertising brochures, and information about our programmes, our policies, our billing procedures and our charges is readily available on our website.

In addition, we have put in place a Student Protection Scheme (SPS) for international students by way of a Student Tuition Fee Insurance Scheme.  Our refund policy guidelines are specified clearly in our Student Contract, and the teacher-student ratio, as well as the classroom sizes which are set down and specified by CASE and the Education Ministry, are also strictly adhered to.

Furthermore, all our branches are registered with the Ministry of Education (MOE), and our courses, as well as our teachers have all been registered with MOE.
