 SINGAPORE EDUCATION AT A GLANCE.....

PRIMARY EDUCATION
A child in Singapore undergoes six years of primary education, comprising a four-year foundation stage
from Primary 1 to 4 and a two-year orientation stage from Primary 5 to 6.At the foundation stage, the core
curriculum comprising English, the Mother Tongue and Mathematics are taught, with supplementary subjects such as Music, Art & Craft, Physical Education and Social Studies. Science is included from Primary 3. To maximize their potential, students are streamed according to their learning ability before advancing to the orientation stage. At the end of Primary 6, students sit for the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE).Singapore's primary school curriculum has been used as a model internationally, especially its teaching methods in mathematics.Foreign students are accepted at primary schools subject to availability of vacancies.

SECONDARY EDUCATION
Secondary schools in Singapore can be government funded, government aided or independent. Studentsattend four or five years of secondary education under the Special, Express or Normal Course. The Special and Express Courses prepare students for the Singapore-Cambridge General Certificate of Education 'Ordinary'(GCE 'O') Level examination in four years. Students in the Normal Course can opt for the Academic or Technical stream, both of which prepare students for the Singapore-Cambridge General Certificate of Education 'Normal' (GCE 'N') Level examination after four years of study and upon satisfactory completion, the GCE 'O' Level examination in the fifth year.
