CHANGING EDUCATION LANDSCAPE With a v olatile, u ncertain, c omplex and a mbiguous world, we will need to be adaptable and be willing to learn. “…education is not what we do TO our children. Rather, it is what we do WITH them, and FOR them, to bring out the best IN each of them, so that they grow up to embrace the best of the human spirit – to always be better, to always strive harder and build deeper wells of character.” Minister Heng Swee Keat, MOE WPS 2013
ADJUSTMENTS TO THE EDUCATION SYSTEM PSLE and Secondary 1 posting, move away • from T-score, to scoring students in broader bands. Secondary school Subject-based Banding. • Broadening DSA and ensuring a more • variegated school landscape, including distinctive areas (niches).
PSLE- A PLACEMENT EXAM reflects the relative achievement level of students within their peers. Places students into different streams (Express/NA/NT) according to their academic ability Enables posting to secondary schools by merit and as far as possible into a school of their choice.
PSLE T-SCORE • It gives the relative position of a student’s performance as compared to the performance of all the other students in that subject. • The raw mark obtained in the exam only shows how good the student is in that subject, not how good he is as compared to others.
