Transition of Primary Schools to Single Session
In April 2009, the Ministry of Education (MOE) accepted the recommendations of the Primary Education Review and Implementation (PERI) Committee to enhance the quality of primary education.
As part of PERI’s recommendations, MOE will move all primary schools to a single-session model progressively over the next few years so as to provide teachers with additional time and space to deliver a more holistic education as well as to allow pupils to benefit from a wider range of academic and non-academic activities.
MOE targets to facilitate the transition of the majority of government primary schools to single-session by 2016. Government-aided schools will be given more flexibility in their transition timeline as they have to take into account stakeholders’ concerns.
The information below reflects the operation mode of all the primary schools in Singapore in Academic Year 2012, as of Jan 2012.
