We have updated our best secondary school ranking list based on the 2024 intake (which is the 2023 PSLE cohort). This is the third time that actual achievement level scores are used in the ranking.
When ranking the schools, we use their PSLE cut-off scores, along with their previous year’s ranking.
If 2 schools have the same achievement level cut-off score (or cut-off point), we further rank them by the lowest AL score they accept, then by their previous year’s ranking.
Note that in the new Achievement Level (AL) system, the lower the overall score, the better.
In our ranking list below, schools offering 6-year programmes, i.e. Integrated Programme (IP) and International Baccalaureate (IB), are highlighted in bold.
Schools under the Special Assistance Plan (SAP) are also indicated. To get into SAP secondary schools, students in the top 30% of the PSLE cohort who take the Higher Chinese subject will be accorded an advantage in the posting. Refer to the list...
