Opened on 22 October 2025, the XCL World Academy welcomes children from 18 months to 11 years into a space where bilingual learning, AI literacy and the joy of discovery sit comfortably side by side.
Members of Parliament for Nee Soon GRC Dr Syed Harun Alhabsyi and Ms Lee Hui Ying officiated the opening, alongside diplomats, partners, teachers, families, and the students who will make these hallways hum.
Head of School Tammy Murphy framed the school’s intent with refreshing clarity: “We at XWA interpret education as a pathway to lifelong learning, beyond exams and we prioritise education that equips students for life, not just academic tests.”
She added that the new campus “encourages young learners to explore ideas, use technology creatively, and connect what they learn to the world around them.”
At the heart of the curriculum is the IB Primary Years Programme, supercharged by the school’s XCLerate framework. These include Creative Arts, Global Citizenship, Student Leadership, Community Action Service, Entrepreneurship & Financial Literacy, and Digital Literacy. From as early as four, pupils are taught to ask better questions, reason critically, and use technology responsibly, skills that grow with them as learning becomes more sophisticated year by year.
