RI is notable for having produced 96 President's Scholars, three presidents, two prime ministers, four speakers of Parliament, several Cabinet ministers and Members of Parliament, as well as many chief executive officers of statutory boards, agencies and state-owned companies. Its alumni body, the Old Rafflesians Association (ORA), includes former Prime Ministers Lee Kuan Yew and Goh Chok Tong, as well as former Presidents Yusof Ishak, Benjamin Sheares and Wee Kim Wee. RI has one of the highest admission rates to the elite universities of the world such as the Ivy League and Oxbridge. It had the highest number of admissions to the University of Cambridge, with 48 students receiving offers in the 2022 admissions cycle, while 52 were accepted for Oxford and Cambridge combined in 2021, and 77 in 2022 (2nd highest of all schools).

  • O Instituto Raffles (RI) é uma escola secundária de rapazes independente, em Singapura. Fundada em 1823 como Instituição Singapura por Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, foi consistentemente avaliada como uma escola de topo na Singapura no agora extinto ranking oficial das escolas, publicado pelo Ministério da Educação singapurense. O RI foi também reconhecido pela excelência nos processos e resultados educacionais. Atualmente o Diretor do Instituto Raffles é Senhor Frederick Yeo, que tomou o posto do anterior diretor Senhor Chan Poh Meng, que deixou a escola no fim de 2017. Uma proposta de fusão com o Colégio Júnior Raffles foi também estabelecido e está atualmente à espera de aprovação pelo Ministério da Educação. A fusão sucedeu bem, e o Instituto Raffles e o Colégio Júnior Raffles eram uma só instituição desde 2009. A Escola de Raparigas Raffles foi reportada por ter rejeitado a ideia de uma fusão. Em adição, a Direção de Governadores do Instituto Raffles e do Colégio Júnior Raffles foi implementada com efeito em Junho de 2008. (pt)
  • 莱佛士书院(中学部)(Raffles Institution (Secondary))是新加坡历史最悠久的学校,是新加坡最顶尖的学校之一。该校同和一起开设直通车课程(莱佛士课程),使学生不必参加中学会考直接进入两年制高中学习。 学校由新加坡的发现者及首任总督、英国人斯坦福·莱佛士爵士于1823年6月5日创办,原名新加坡书院(Singapore Institution),1868年为纪念莱佛士爵士而更名为莱佛士书院。在该校长达180多年的历史中,培养了新加坡几乎所有重要的政商界人士,包括新加坡的两位总理李光耀与吴作栋。因其特殊的历史背景和仿效西方的办学模式,莱佛士书院一直受到新加坡英语背景家庭的欢迎,学校内学生使用的主要语言也是英语而非新加坡各種漢語;这与新加坡另一所名校华侨中学是完全不同的,华侨中学的学生大多都来自新加坡各種漢語背景的家庭,也多习惯在日常交流中使用華語或其他漢语。 莱佛士书院与莱佛士女子中学和莱佛士初级学院(两年制的高中)拥有特殊的联系,一般被合称为“莱佛士家族”(Raffles family)。莱佛士书院与莱佛士初级学院相邻、相连,两校之间没有围墙;三所学校也都共享教学资源与设备,也都拥有共同的校歌、校徽和校训。三所学校的校友都将自己称作“Rafflesian”(莱佛士人)。 2008年10月3日,新加坡教育部批准了莱佛士书院与莱佛士初院提出的合并,于2009年1月1日生效。两间学校课程上并未合并,只在行政方面合并。2008年6月,两校董事局已经合并,并有三分之一是来自莱佛士女校董事局,新加入的董事长。但是,莱佛士女校因认为学生在女校的环境中会更有冒险精神,更敢于当上领袖,而没与莱佛士书院合并。 (zh)
