SECONDARY 1

Admission for students with PSLE qualification

Students who have sat the PSLE are normally posted into schools in December. This is according to both merit and the choice of Secondary School made by the individual students. After posting, students who have not been posted into the school may still appeal directly to the school for consideration for admission.

Admission for students without PSLE qualification

Singaporeans returning from abroad and foreign students who have not sat the PSLE level will be offered an admission test by the school in English, Mathematics, Science and MT / HMT (if applicable). Applicants will be informed of when they will be required to sit for the tests and have to register and pay the administrative fees for these. The administration fee for the tests is SGD 50.00 for the 1st subject and SGD 25.00 for each additional subject tested i.e. SGD 125.00 for a maximum of four subjects tested.

Application for Admission based on Special Talent / Achievement

The school will also consider applications of those who seek to be admitted to Sec 1 based on their special talent. Such applications come under Direct School Admission (DSA) (More information for 2012 intake will be available in 2011) .

SECONDARY 2 & 3

Admission tests will be held for vacancies to be filled and as part of the Talent Management Programme of the school. Those on the waiting list will be informed if there are suitable vacancies. Places are awarded by merit and subject to the number of places in the various subject combinations available. The administration fee for the tests in English, Mathematics and Science is SGD 100.00 for the three subjects.

The school does not accept new students for entry to any of its graduating classes as they must be suitably prepared for the O-Level Examinations.

Returning Singaporeans and Singapore Permanent Residents (SPR)

Applications by returning Singaporeans and Singapore Permanent Residents (SPR) who are not on Leave of Absence from or registered in another Singapore school will be considered for admission to the Secondary division if there are available vacancies from time to time. In such cases, the applicant(s) may be required to sit for admission tests set by the school in order to qualify placement in the appropriate level and class.
