Raffles Institution is an independent school in Singapore offering the Integrated Programme for exceptionally gifted and talented boys (aged 13 to 18) and girls (aged 17 to 18). Founded in 1823 by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, it is Singapore’s oldest school and shares the same founder as that of its country. However, for reasons far more important than its age and founding father, Raffles Institution is most well-known for its long tradition of excellence and scholarship. It is where Singapore turns to for outstanding leaders in diverse fields. It is also the place from which fine men and women will continue to come forth to be our country’s Hope of a Better Age or Auspicium Melioris Aevi which is our school motto in Latin.

We have a Heritage Centre on the school campus and it is open to Old Boys and Girls as well as interested members of the public. Please note that tours of the Heritage Centre are strictly by appointment only. Please contact Mrs Gerardine Koh at (65) 63549 118 for more information.

The school is located at 1 Raffles Institution Lane, Singapore 575954, near the Bishan MRT Station. For general enquiries, please contact us at 6353 8830 (telephone) or 6353 8357 (fax).
