Trust by Design

Compliance built around your institution

Our strategic consulting services focus on developing robust strategies that align with your business objectives, ensuring long-term success and competitive advantage

About Us

Firth & Pillar Strategy is an independent education quality assurance and compliance consultancy based in Singapore.

Founded and led by a seasoned education leader, who brings 8+ years of PEI leadership and multiple EduTrust 4-Year Award certifications

We work as an embedded partner, not an outside vendor - bringing senior-level expertise directly into your institution

Vision

Misson

Transforming regulatory compliance into a sustainable driver of long-term growth.

We bring senior-level compliance leadership to Singapore's private education institutions through flexible, embedded support. Our engagement is shaped around your pace and resources — because compliance support should fit the institution, not the other way around.

Where Institutions Get Stuck

The barrier is rarely the requirements themselves, it's unfamiliarity and cost.

Unfamiliarity

Compliance frameworks are dense, and the terms are rarely explained in plain language

Cost

The usual fix is a full-time hire, or an outside team that leaves once the project ends.

​

Momentum stalls before it starts, or budgets stretch further than expected.

You shouldn't need a costly translator to build compliance and keep on improving
