International schools across Singapore are preparing for a new academic year, and ESB International is looking forward to joining the conversation.<\/strong>

This September, ESB International’s Chief Executive, Adrian Gallagher<\/strong>, and Head of Commercial, Jonathan Smith<\/strong>, will visit Singapore as part of the ESB Singapore Roadshow<\/strong>, a week-long programme of meetings with international schools and education stakeholders from 21-25 September 2026<\/strong>.

The roadshow has been created to strengthen existing relationships, develop new partnerships and explore how schools can further support learners through oracy, public speaking, debating, enrichment opportunities and English language development.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Supporting Learners Through Communication<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For more than 70 years, English Speaking Board (ESB) has been helping learners develop the communication skills they need to succeed in education, employment and life.

As a UK educational charity and awarding organisation, ESB has built a reputation for delivering qualifications that place communication, confidence and progression at their heart. From Early Years through to post-16 education, our qualifications support learners in developing the skills required to express themselves effectively, participate confidently and thrive in an increasingly interconnected world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, schools and centres around the globe use ESB qualifications to support:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Oracy and spoken communication<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Public speaking and presentations<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Debating and critical thinking<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Performance and self-expression<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • EAL and ESOL provision<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Enrichment and learner development<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    These areas are becoming increasingly important as schools look to prepare young people for future study, employment and global citizenship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Building on Our Work with Tanglin Trust School<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    The roadshow also builds upon ESB’s growing presence within Singapore’s international education sector through our relationship with Tanglin Trust School, one of the region’s most respected international schools.

    Tanglin Trust School has long been recognised for its commitment to educational excellence, learner development and enrichment. The relationship has provided valuable insight into the priorities and opportunities facing international schools in Singapore and further reinforces ESB’s commitment to supporting communication-focused education within the region.

    As we continue to develop our work in Singapore, we are keen to engage with schools that share our belief in the importance of communication skills and learner confidence as foundations for lifelong success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Why Meet ESB During the Singapore Roadshow?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    The start of the academic year presents an ideal opportunity for schools to review and enhance areas such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
