Learning Journey of A Child in Singapore
At the age of 12, Singapore children take the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE), an important placement examination. Is your child able to enjoy his or her childhood and still do well in the PSLE?
Learning is a journey for your developing child and the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE) is an important milestone in your child's life.
* At a tender age of 6, your child enters the primary school.
* At age 10 or primary 4, his/her results will decide if he/she will take a subject at the foundation
or standard level.
* At age 12, he/she sits for the PSLE.
Why is the PSLE performance important?
The PSLE results will decide
* the course your child will be in for the next 4 or 5 years;
* the secondary school your child will be in.
Based on the PSLE results, the PSLE cohort will be streamed to a 4-year Integrated Programme or Express course or to a 5-year Normal Academic or Normal Technical Course.
