We are moving to Singapore. How do I arrange to homeschool my 10yr old daughter?

Question

We are moving to Singapore in July and she will have just finished grade 5 in Canada. I am not sure where to even begin to set up the option of homeschooling in Singapore. The Canadaian International School is too expensive and my daughter is very nervous about attending a local school as we have been warned that there are not many expats there. If anyone can help at all with the process of what I should do or where I can get this information, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you.

Answer 1

There is a Singapore Homeschooling Group, which seems like a good place to start. Their website is:

Other than that, I couldn't find a lot of information on homeschooling in Singapore. It appears that the compulsory education law in Singapore does not apply to expats, so you may not have to deal with the government at all.
