Welcome to Tanglin Trust

A MESSAGE FROM CRAIG CONSIDINE, CEO

At Tanglin, school life is not simply preparation for something in the future. Every day of a child’s school life is important and should be looked forward to with excitement and anticipation.  

Each child is unique and their needs change as they grow. Knowing them, inspiring them, caring for them, challenging them and collaborating with them is our work. This responsibility requires a purposeful and creative approach that respects everyone's needs. Individuals matter as do communal experiences that create camaraderie and connectedness ...
