Southville International School Affiliated with Foreign Universities (SISFU), the Philippines’ premier international school offering UK degrees, recently strengthened its leadership role in transnational education through a strategic courtesy visit to Commission on Higher Education (CHED) Commissioner Ethel Agnes Valenzuela.
The SISFU Executive Committee and Management Team—including Mr. Rex Wallen Tan, Dr. Jocelyn Tizon, Dr. Melva Diamante, Dr. Nancy De Guia, Mr. Daniel Steel, Mr. Leo Anoche, Mr. Gio Pastor, and Ms. Zheela Montecillo—engaged in meaningful discussions on expanding world-class educational opportunities for Filipino students and advancing transnational higher education in the country.
SISFU showcased two flagship partnerships that enable students to earn globally recognized credentials locally: its 10-year academic collaboration with De Montfort University (DMU) in the United Kingdom, renowned for business and creative programs, and its 18-year alliance with Pearson BTEC, a leading provider of career-focused international qualifications.
The visit reinforced SISFU’s mission to deliver quality global education while preparing Filipino graduates for success in international careers and communities. By maintaining strong relationships with CHED and international partners, SISFU continues setting the benchmark for international schools in the Philippines, effectively bridging local learning with global opportunities.
