SECTION I: GENERAL INFORMATION 1 OVERVIEW 1.1 Primary Six (P6) students from mainstream primary schools can seek secondary school admission through the Secondary One (S1) Posting Exercise or the Direct School Admission-Secondary (DSA-Sec) Exercise. This booklet provides information on how to participate in the S1 Posting Exercise. 1.2 All students who pass the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE) are eligible to participate in the S1 Posting Exercise. This is with the exception of those who are successful in the DSA-Sec Exercise and do not qualify for any eligibility such as Third Language and/or Course Option based on their PSLE results. Students are posted to secondary schools based on merit according to three criteria: student s PSLE results, their choices of schools and the vacancies available in the schools. 1.3 The DSA-Sec Exercise provides students the opportunity to demonstrate a more diverse range of achievements and talents which could be considered by the participating schools in their application for secondary school admission. The DSA- Sec Exercise aims to promote holistic education by giving participating schools greater flexibility in selecting students while holding to the key principles of transparency and meritocracy. For more information, please refer to the MOE website at www.moe.gov.sg/education/admissions/dsa-sec. 2 S1 POSTING EXERCISE 2.1 The S1 Posting Exercise comprises the following three phases: a. S1 Option Phase this phase is for parents to submit their child s S1 options and/or secondary school choices. b. School Posting Phase this phase is for the posting of students to secondary schools taking into consideration their PSLE results, choices of schools and available vacancies. c. Posting Results Release Phase this phase is for the release of the school posting results. Students are to report to their posted secondary schools on the next working day after the release of the posting results. 2.2 P6 students who have applied to the Singapore Sports School (SSP) must participate in the S1 Posting Exercise as well. Upon release of the S1 posting results, these students may then seek a formal school transfer from their posted mainstream secondary school to the SSP. This will facilitate their re-admission to the posted mainstream secondary school provided to them under the S1 Posting Exercise, should they decide to leave the SSP subsequently. MORE PATHWAYS FOR SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS 2.3 With the expansion of the Integrated Programme (IP) 1, a greater variety of secondary schools are offering the IP at Secondary One. 2.4 The following schools offer both the IP and General Cambridge Examination (GCE) Ordinary ( O ) Level Programme. Students can opt for either of the programmes (IP or O Level) in these schools. Each of these programmes will have its specific cut- 1 MOE announced an expansion of the Integrated Programme to more secondary schools on 1 September, 2010. The press release is at http://www.moe.gov.sg/media/press/2010/09/more-pathways-secondary-schools.php. The IP secondary schools will offer both IP and O Level Programme. 1

off points (COP). Note that affiliation considerations will only be given for admission into the O Level Programme, and not the IP. Secondary School Name Option Code Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) 7001 Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) Integrated Programme 9161 Catholic High School 7102 Catholic High School Integrated Programme 9131 Cedar Girls Secondary School 3004 Cedar Girls Secondary School Integrated Programme 9152 CHIJ St. Nicholas Girls School 7118 CHIJ St. Nicholas Girls School Integrated Programme 9134 Methodist Girls School (Secondary) 7030 Methodist Girls School (Secondary) Integrated Programme 9162 Singapore Chinese Girls School 7014 Singapore Chinese Girls School Integrated Programme 9132 St. Joseph s Institution 7020 St. Joseph s Institution Integrated Programme 9141 Victoria School 3014 Victoria School Integrated Programme 9151 2.5 Students who are interested in both the IP and O Level Programmes offered by dual track schools are required to choose the option codes from both programmes respectively. For a student who has chosen IP from School A as his/her first choice but is unsuccessful, he/she will not be posted automatically to the O Level Programme in School A unless the student chooses School A s O Level Programme as the second choice and meets the COP. Similarly, for a student who has chosen O Level Programme from School A as his/her first choice and is successfully posted, he/she will not be considered for the IP in School A even if he/she meets the IP COP. 2.6 Spectra Secondary School (SSS), the second Specialised School for Normal (Technical) (SSNT) students, will admit students from January 2014. Together with Crest Secondary School (CSS), there are now two SSNT (see Reference H). Students who are interested to enrol in CSS or SSS should apply to the school directly. Students who have applied to CSS or SSS will still be required to participate in the S1 Posting Exercise to opt for their school choices. Students who are successfully admitted into CSS or SSS will be informed via letter and Short Messaging System (SMS) and will not be posted to another school under the S1 Posting Exercise. Students who have applied to CSS or SSS but are not successful will continue to be posted to a secondary school under the S1 Posting Exercise. 2

3 DSA-SEC EXERCISE - SCHOOL ALLOCATION OUTCOME 3.1 P6 students who have participated in the DSA-Sec Exercise will be informed of the school allocation results, together with the release of the PSLE results. SUCCESSFUL STUDENTS 3.2 Successful DSA students will be informed of the DSA school they have been admitted to through their primary schools. They will not be allowed to participate in the centralised S1 Posting Exercise. Students who have been successfully allocated to a secondary school under DSA-Sec Exercise are also not allowed to transfer school after the release of the PSLE results as they are expected to honour their commitment to their posted DSA schools for the duration of the programme that they are admitted into. Similarly, successful SSP DSA students are not allowed to transfer to another school, except to their posted secondary school provided to them under the S1 Posting Exercise. 3.3 Successful DSA students who are eligible for and wish to offer a Third Language must exercise their Third Language options by submitting their S1 Option Form via the S1 Internet System (S1-IS) or through their primary school. 3.4 Successful DSA students with PSLE results within the Express/Normal (Academic) course option band or the Normal (Academic)/Normal (Technical) course option band must opt for a course by submitting their S1 Option via the S1-IS or through their primary school. If no options are made, it would be assumed that the student would like to be admitted to the more academically-demanding course i.e. Express course for the Express/Normal (Academic) course option band and Normal (Academic) course for the Normal (Academic)/Normal (Technical) course option band. UNSUCCESSFUL STUDENTS 3.5 During the release of the PSLE results, unsuccessful DSA students will be notified that none of the DSA schools they had indicated a preference for are able to offer them a place. Hence, they will be able to participate in the centralised S1 Posting Exercise to opt for their choices of schools. They must indicate their school choices in the S1 Posting Exercise by submitting their S1 Option via the S1-IS or through their primary school. These students will be able to opt for their preferred schools, including schools that had not been able to offer them a place under the DSA-Sec Exercise. 3

SECTION II: S1 OPTION PHASE 4 S1 OPTION FORM & ELIGIBILITY LETTER S1 OPTION FORM 4.1 P6 students who pass the PSLE will each receive a personalised S1 Option Form (see Reference A for a sample) together with their PSLE results slip. This is with the exception of those who are successful in the DSA-Sec Exercise and do not qualify for any eligibility such as Third Language and/or Course Option based on their PSLE results. 4.2 Students are required to complete the S1 Option Form together with their parents. The form must be sealed when first received as it contains a unique password (S1 PIN) for parents to submit their child s S1 options through the S1 Internet System (S1-IS). Parents should inform their child s primary school immediately if the form is not sealed. To prevent any unauthorised access to the S1-IS, parents should keep the S1 PIN confidential. 4.3 Parents and students who are not in Singapore to collect their child s PSLE results slip and S1 Option Form may authorise a proxy to collect them from their child s primary school. ELIGIBILITY LETTER 4.4 Students, including those successful in the DSA-Sec Exercise, who are eligible for any of the following will automatically be informed of their eligibility via their personalised Eligibility Letter, which they will receive together with their S1 Option Form. a. Express/Normal (Academic) and Normal (Academic)/Normal (Technical) Students who just meet the qualifying PSLE aggregate for the Express course will be given an alternative option to take up the Normal (Academic) course. Students who just meet the qualifying PSLE aggregate for the Normal (Academic) course will be given an alternative option to take up the Normal (Technical) course. PSLE students who are in these categories must exercise their course options in the S1 Option Form and submit the form either electronically via the S1-IS or physically to the child s primary school. b. Bonus Points for Admission to Special Assistance Plan (SAP) Schools - Students in the top 30% of the PSLE cohort who take Higher Chinese at the PSLE will be given bonus points for admission to SAP schools according to the following table: Higher Chinese Grade Bonus Point Distinction 3 Merit 2 Pass 1 c. Higher Mother Tongue Language (HMTL) - Students may opt to offer HMTL (viz. Higher Chinese/ Higher Malay/ Higher Tamil) from S1 onwards if they offer MTL or HMTL at the PSLE and are in the Top 10% of the PSLE cohort; or Top 11% - 30% of the PSLE cohort and meet the language criteria i.e. an A* grade in the MTL or at least a Merit in HMTL. Interested students can apply to offer HMTL when they report to their secondary school in late December. They will attend HMTL lessons at their school if the school offers the course, or in a designated centre if the school 4

does not (see Reference B for the list of schools and designated centres offering HMTL). [For information: A student who obtains a grade of A1 to C6 for both English and HMTL at the GCE O Level Examination and qualifies for admission to a Junior College (JC)/Millennia Institute (MI) will be given a concession of two points in his/her application to the JC/MI of his/her choice via the Joint Admissions Exercise (JAE).] d. Third Language - Eligible students may apply to offer a Third Language viz. Chinese (Special Programme) [CSP]/Malay (Special Programme) [MSP]/Bahasa Indonesia (BI) /Arabic/French/German/Japanese/Spanish from S1 onwards. Interested students should exercise their Third Language option(s). In the event that the number of applicants for the Third Language exceeds the vacancies available, selection will be based on each applicant s PSLE results. [For information: A student who obtains a grade of A1 to C6 for CSP/MSP/BI at the GCE O Level Examination and qualifies for admission to a JC/MI will be given a concession of two points in his/her application to the JC/MI of his/her choice via the JAE. A student who offers CSP/MSP/BI in the GCE O Level Examination will be allowed to use the respective CSP/MSP/BI grade in lieu of a Humanities subject grade for admission to the JC/MI.] e. Edusave Entrance Scholarships for Independent Schools (EESIS) - Students who are Singapore Citizens (SC) and meet the academic requirements based on their PSLE results will be offered the EESIS if they are successfully admitted to an Independent School (IS) at S1. P6 Gifted Education Programme (GEP) students who are SC and have met the GEP promotion criteria will be offered the EESIS if they are successfully admitted and enrolled in the Integrated Programme (IP) of an IS at S1 (refer to http://www.moe.gov.sg/initiatives/edusave/funds-grants-awards/eesis/ for these IS/IP). f. Singapore-MOE Award (SMA) P6 GEP students who are not SC and have met the GEP promotion criteria will be offered the SMA if they are successfully admitted and enrolled in the IP of an IS at S1 (refer to http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/scholarships/moe-preu/singapore-moeaward/ for these IS/IP). g. GEP Fees Subsidy P6 GEP students who have met the GEP promotion criteria will be eligible for the GEP Fees Subsidy tenable at these ISs offering the dual track: Anglo-Chinese School (Independent), Methodist Girls School (Secondary), Singapore Chinese Girls School and St. Joseph s Institution. They will be offered the subsidy if they are successfully admitted to the O Level Programme of the mentioned ISs at S1. 5 CONSIDERATIONS WHEN MAKING S1 OPTIONS & CHOOSING SCHOOLS 5.1 In making S1 options and choosing secondary schools for their child, parents may consider the following factors amongst others: a. Academic Performance of the Child and Previous Year s Posting Aggregate Ranges of Schools - Parents may wish to opt for schools that take in students with an academic ability comparable to that of their child s. They may refer to the PSLE aggregate ranges of the previous cohort of PSLE students posted to S1 in each school as a guide (see Reference I). The PSLE aggregate ranges for schools are not pre-determined before posting, and can vary from year to year, depending on students PSLE results and their school choices. Parents may wish to include secondary schools that offer the respective HMTL in their school choices, if their child is eligible based on PSLE performance and wishes to offer HMTL in secondary school (see Reference B for a list of schools/designated centres and Language Centres offering the respective HMTL). 5

b. Distance - Parents may want to consider schools near their home so that it will be more convenient for their child to travel to and from school (see Reference C for the schools listed by area). c. Affiliated Schools - Some secondary schools have affiliated primary schools. Students of such primary schools, who want to continue education in the affiliated secondary school, must indicate that school as their first choice in order to enjoy priority for admission to that school. Being accorded priority for admission to affiliated secondary schools does not guarantee admission, as it is subject to the availability of places in these schools. Furthermore, some secondary schools may set additional qualifying criteria for admission of students from their affiliated primary schools. [Note: For dual track schools offering both IP and O Level Programme, affiliation considerations will only be given for the O Level Programme. Affiliation will be given for the O Level Programme if the student indicates: i. O Level Programme of the affiliated dual track school as the first choice or ii. IP of the affiliated dual track school as the first choice and the O Level Programme of the affiliated dual track school as the second choice An example of the affiliation priority for dual track schools is shown. Assuming that Primary School A is affiliated to Secondary School A: Scenario School Choices Made by Affiliated Primary School Students Affiliation Priority? 1 1 st Choice: Secondary School A Yes 2 nd Choice: Secondary School A Integrated Programme No 2 1 st Choice: Secondary School A Integrated Programme No 2 nd Choice: Secondary School A Yes 3 1 st Choice: Secondary School B Integrated Programme No 2 nd Choice: Secondary School A No d. Special Assistance Plan (SAP) Schools - SAP schools nurture students to be proficient in both English Language (EL) and Chinese Language (CL), and to have a good understanding and appreciation of Chinese culture. Students who have taken both EL and CL at the PSLE may opt for SAP schools during the S1 posting exercise, and they may be posted to these schools if they meet the school s cut-off PSLE aggregate. Students posted to SAP secondary schools should offer HCL (or CL, if available) to enable them to participate meaningfully in SAP school programmes (see Reference C for the list of SAP schools). e. Programmes/Schemes Offered by Secondary Schools - There are various programmes and schemes offered in the secondary schools (e.g. Music Elective Programme, Art Elective Programme). Students may wish to include schools that offer the programmes/schemes that they are interested in as their school choices. Please refer to the Secondary School Education booklet for more information on these programmes/schemes. For example, students who wish to 6

offer Tamil Language (TL) within curriculum time should include schools offering it (see Reference D for the list of schools offering TL). f. Special Needs of the Child - Some secondary schools have special facilities and/or resources to support students with special needs (e.g. physical disabilities, hearing impairment, visual impairment, and mild special educational needs like autistic spectrum disorder and dyslexia). Parents may wish to include such schools in their choices, if their child requires such special support (see Reference E for the list of such schools). 6 SUBMISSION OF S1 OPTION 6.1 Parents are advised to indicate all the six secondary school choices, in order of preference. 6.2 Parents are advised to complete their child s S1 Option Form by indicating the secondary school and eligibility options, where applicable, prior to submission. 6.3 Parents can submit the completed S1 Option either electronically via the S1-IS or physically to their child s primary school during the S1 Option Phase (see paragraph 10.1 for important dates). SUBMISSION ONLINE VIA S1 INTERNET SYSTEM (S1-IS) 6.4 Parents can submit their child s secondary school and eligibility options via the S1- IS accessible at www.moe.gov.sg/education/admissions/secondary-one-posting/. They can log on to the S1-IS anywhere (with internet access) and at anytime within the S1 Option Phase; such parents need not make a physical trip to their child s primary school (see Reference F for a step-by-step guide on using the S1-IS). 6.5 Parents are strongly advised to print and retain a copy of the Verification Slip (VS) after submitting their child s options on the S1-IS. Parents should note that if they are unable to view the VS, their child s options may not have been submitted. In such cases, parents should log on to the S1-IS again to confirm the status of their submission. SUBMISSION PHYSICALLY VIA PRIMARY SCHOOL 6.6 Parents, including those without internet access, may also submit the completed S1 Option Form to their child s primary school during the S1 Option Phase. Parents are advised to ensure that the entries in the S1 Option Form are correct and legible. 6.7 Parents who require assistance in completing the S1 Option may seek assistance from their child s primary school. The school staff will key in the options into the system and issue a Verification Slip (VS) endorsed with the school stamp. Parents should check the VS to ensure that the options entered are correct and inform the school staff immediately if there are any discrepancies. Parents are to sign on the VS after checking. 6.8 Parents who are not in Singapore to submit their child s secondary school and eligibility options may authorise a proxy to submit the completed S1 Option Form to their child s primary school on their behalf. 7

SECTION III: SCHOOL POSTING & POSTING RESULTS RELEASE PHASES 7 SCHOOL POSTING PHASE 7.1 Students are posted to secondary schools based on merit first according to their PSLE aggregate scores rounded to the nearest whole number. A student with better rounded aggregate score will be considered for admission first, subject to the availability of vacancies in the selected school. If there is no more vacancy, then the student will be considered for his/her next choice school(s). 7.2 In situations where there are two or more students with the same rounded aggregate score vying for the last place in a school, they will be posted based on their citizenship status (i.e. Singapore Citizens, then Singapore Permanent Residents, then International Students). If there is still a tie, say between two Singapore Citizens, the one with the higher unrounded aggregate score will be posted into the school first. If there is still a tie between two citizens with the same unrounded aggregate score, then posting into the school will be determined by a computerised ballot where each candidate is given an equal opportunity. 7.3 Students who fail to get a place in any of their choice of schools will be posted to a school near their home which still has vacancies. However, they must have met the school s lowest PSLE aggregate. As such, parents are advised to update the primary school of any changes in official residential address by the end of PSLE. 7.4 Students who indicate their affiliated secondary school as their first choice will enjoy priority for admission to that school. Being accorded priority for admission to affiliated secondary schools does not guarantee admission, as it is subject to the availability of places in these schools. Furthermore, some secondary schools may set additional qualifying criteria for admission of students from their affiliated primary schools. 8 POSTING RESULTS RELEASE PHASE 8.1 The school posting results will be released in late December. Students are to report to their posted secondary schools on the next working day after the release of the posting results. 8.2 Parents and students will be able to check the posting results via any of the following channels: a. Short Messaging System (SMS) via applicant s local mobile number (if provided by applicants during the S1 Option Phase) b. S1-IS (www.moe.gov.sg/education/admissions/secondary-one-posting/) c. Going to the child s primary school 9 APPEAL FOR TRANSFER AFTER POSTING 9.1 MOE will consider appeals for transfer after the S1 Posting Exercise. Such transfers are subject to availability of vacancies and will only be considered for students with: a. Serious medical conditions (e.g. chronic heart conditions, kidney problems) b. Dyslexia and Autistic Spectrum Disorder c. Physical disabilities (e.g. using wheelchair, crutches) 8

9.2 Such students should first report at the secondary school that they were posted to on the next working day after the release of posting results, and apply for school transfer there. All applications must be accompanied with the relevant supporting documents. 9.3 The results of the appeals will only be made known to applicants in early January. Applicants should continue to attend lessons at their posted school while waiting for the results of the appeal. Applicants may check the outcome of their appeals with the secondary school that they were posted to. 10 IMPORTANT DATES 10.1 Below are some important dates (tentative) for 2013 PSLE students: Key Event Date Release of PSLE Results Between 22 November 2013 and 25 November 2013 Submission of Options a.

Students offering HMTL/CSP/MSP will attend lessons at their own secondary school during curriculum time, if the school offers it (schools denoted by and # in table below). Otherwise, they will attend lessons in a designated centre outside curriculum time (schools denoted by # are the designated centres). Secondary schools have the flexibility to allow students who do not meet the criteria to offer HMTL to do so, if such students are assessed to have exceptional ability in MTL and are able to do HMTL without affecting their performance in other subjects. Schools/Designated centres offering CSP and MSP conduct lessons twice a week for two hours per session outside curriculum time. S/No School/Centre HCL HML HTL CSP MSP 1. Admiralty Sec Sch 2.

Students with PD or mild SEN who are not posted to an appropriate-resourced school listed above may apply for a transfer. Such students should first report at the secondary school that they were posted to on the next working day after the release of posting results, and apply for school transfer there. All applications must be accompanied with the relevant supporting documents, as follows: a. PD - An assessment of the student s condition and needs from a qualified medical professional. It should clearly describe the extent of disability (e.g. temporary, permanent) and the type of assistive device that the child is currently using (e.g. wheelchair, crutches). b. Mild SEN - A comprehensive report written by a relevant professional (e.g. psychologist, speech and language therapist). It should indicate the nature of the disability with supporting evidence for the diagnosis and provide clear description of the student s current functioning and limitations, together with recommendations for support and intervention. Other documents may include a school report from the student s primary school providing additional background to his/her condition and any other relevant documents. MOE will consider appeals for transfer to a school resourced to support mild SEN only if that school is included as one of the student s original choice of secondary schools.
