How to Choose a Secondary School after PSLE?

 

When choosing a secondary school after the PSLE, consider the following factors:

Child’s Interests and Strengths: Look into your child’s academic strengths, interests, and learning styles. Select a school that aligns with these factors and offers relevant programs, like special arts or science courses, or support for specific learning needs [4].

School’s Curriculum and Programs: Research the schools’ unique programs, such as sports, arts, and specific academic tracks, to find options that match your child’s interests and aspirations [6].

Distance and Location: Consider the location and commute time to avoid excessive travel, which can impact your child’s daily routine and energy levels [3].

School Culture and Values: Visit the school open houses if possible to observe the environment and see if the school’s values align with your family's expectations.

Academic and Non-Academic Support: Look into the school’s support system, including counseling services and learning support programs, which can make a significant difference in your child’s school experience [2].

Submit Choices: After the PSLE results are out, submit your school preferences to the Ministry of Education through the Secondary 1 Posting Exercise [1].
