The primary six exam is a complete diversion of all primary school graduates, and the level of grades determines the graduation destination and school of students. After the sixth grade exam, students are promoted to courses that can be read in middle school. In addition to O-level courses, several top schools use IP courses and IB courses.
Where to go to school after passing PSLE exam?
Intellectual property course
Integrated course (IP), the course of IP College is a 6-year continuous learning and university through train. It is a six-year comprehensive course for senior high school and junior college students in Singapore. In Singapore 140 middle schools, less than 20% adopt IP courses, focusing on cultivating tyrants, elites, leaders and future politicians. Students who enter the program can skip the Cambridge O-level exam, go directly to study the A-level exam, the international IB exam or other equivalent exams, and then enter local universities or apply for universities in North America, Europe and Australia.
General courses
Secondary schools in Singapore generally offer O-LEVEL courses, which is also the most widely used basic education system in the world. This is the basis for choosing junior college and science and engineering after middle school. Among them, students who study well will enter junior college or science and engineering, and enter the workplace smoothly after three years. Of course, there are also grassroots students who study ITE (equivalent to a technical school) and learn a trade before entering the workplace. Taking O-LEVEL as a springboard to replace the IELTS scores of overseas famous schools has also become an ideal choice for many students.
International diploma course
If you plan to go abroad for further study in the future, IB course has greatly absorbed the essence of educational reform in many countries in the world, promoted the creative thinking of teachers and students, and cultivated IB students with diversified and multidisciplinary knowledge. IB course pays more attention to "inquiry" and expects more hands-on projects and the integration of science, art and philosophy. More courses mean more comprehensive education and provide more help for you to choose college courses. IB curriculum design mainly focuses on the last two years of middle school. Through two years of solid education, we have cultivated elite talents recognized and given priority in universities around the world. Choosing IB middle school curriculum is easier to connect with the world.
Almost all universities in Britain accept IB diplomas, and world-class universities such as Oxford and Cambridge also welcome IB students to apply for admission. In particular, the passing rate of Singapore IB diploma is much higher than the global average, and it has achieved seven consecutive championships in the international IB exam.
