The Journey of Glad Tidings International School At A Glance

Glad Tidings International School (formerly known as Hope International Primary School) was set up in April 2007 by Glad Tidings Church, Singapore in partnership with ICM Singapore. The school is located in a rural area in Kampong Speu. Our aim is to raise the educational standards of the children in that location as education is one of the ways to improve standards of living and also to raise the future generation of Cambodia.

​

The vision of Glad Tidings International School is to provide a holistic education for academic excellence and development of the whole person based on Christian principles.  We are committed to producing students of integrity, discipline, resilience and compassion.
