For families choosing an international school in Asia, independent recognition can offer valuable perspective. The Little Steps Asia Education Travel Awards celebrate outstanding schools through expert assessments and parent votes.
Little Steps Asia is a leading family media platform helping parents navigate family life, education and opportunities across Asia. Its annual Education Awards recognises international schools across Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia in 19 categories, combining expert judging with parent votes.
In 2026, Stamford American International School was recognised in four::
- 🥇 Gold – American Curriculum School Award (Experts’ Vote)
- 🥇 Gold – Best School for Learning Support (Experts’ Vote)
- 🥈 Silver – Bilingual Programme of the Year (Readers’ Choice)
- 🥉 Bronze – International School of the Year (Experts’ Vote)
For our community, these awards affirm our commitment to giving every child the freedom to explore, the support to grow and the courage to shape their own path. See all our awards and accreditations.
A school built around choice
Our recognition across American curriculum, international education and bilingual learning reflects a commitment to academic excellence with flexibility.
Students benefit from a strong American curriculum alongside a choice of pathways, including Advanced Placement (AP), BTEC and the International Baccalaureate (IB).
From designing solutions in our Innovation Center to exploring complex questions through Theory of Knowledge, students are encouraged to discover what challenges and inspires them.
Because there is no single definition of success and no single path to achieving it.
Support that helps every child thrive
Our Gold award for Best School for Learning Support reflects our belief that high expectations should always be matched by exceptional care.
From the Early Years onwards, support is woven into everyday learning. Our Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) brings together more than 20 specialists, including occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists and counsellors.
With the right support, challenges become opportunities to build confidence, resilience and courage.
Bilingualism that goes beyond language
Our Silver Readers’ Choice award for Bilingual Programme of the Year is particularly meaningful because it reflects the voices of families themselves.
Through our translanguaging approach, students use English and Mandarin naturally as tools for thinking, communicating and understanding different perspectives.
The result goes beyond bilingual proficiency. Students develop the flexibility, empathy and confidence to navigate diverse cultures and find their voice in an increasingly interconnected world.
The Stamford difference
At the heart of every recognition is a simple belief: every child should have the freedom to discover who they are and the confidence to become who they want to be.
We don’t define the path for your child. We help them build the confidence to make it their own.
