CHANGES TO THEPSLE SCORING & S1 POSTING IT’S PART OF A BIGGER STORY

© MINISTRY OF EDUCATION, COMMUNICATION AND ENGAGEMENT GROUP, 2016

https://www.moe.gov.sg/microsites/psle/

WHAT DO OUR CHILDREN NEED TO THRIVE IN THE FUTURE?

61

VALUES

For example:

• Resilience

• Integrity

• Care

21ST CENTURY COMPETENCIES

For example:

• Global awareness

• Critical and Inventive thinking

• Communication and Collaboration

STRONG FOUNDATION

For example:

• Literacy

• Numeracy

• Social-emotional Competencies

OUR EDUCATION SYSTEM AIMS TO:

62

NURTURE WELL-ROUNDED INDIVIDUALS

• Develop students holistically in every domain of learning

• Equip students with knowledge, skills, values and competencies for life

PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHILDREN TO DISCOVER AND DEVELOP THEIR STRENGTHS & INTERESTS

• Diversified school landscape

• Multiple pathways at various stages

Over the years, we have been fine-tuning the education system to help our

students discover and develop their strengths and interests while moving

away from an

over-emphasis on academic results. This will better enable them to lead

fulfilling lives.

THE PSLE CHANGES AREPART OF A BIGGER STORY

1. The changes to the PSLE scoring and S1 posting

are another step in this direction.63

THE PSLE REMAINS A USEFUL CHECKPOINT

It gauges the level of students’ learning

in the core subjects at the end of six

years of primary school and guides his

future choices.

64

HOW PSLE SCORING WORKS

CURRENT SYSTEM

HOW THE T-SCORE AGGREGATE AFFECTS STUDENTS

• It finely differentiates students.

• It shows how well students have done relative to their peers.

66

WHY CHANGE?

• Reduce fine differentiation of students at a young age based on exam scores.

• Recognise a student’s level of achievement in each subject, regardless of how his peers have done.

WHAT THE NEW PSLESCORING SYSTEM AIMS TO DO

67

NEW SYSTEM

STUDENTS WITH SIMILAR SCORES IN EACH SUBJECT WILL BE GROUPED INTO THE SAME ACHIEVEMENT LEVEL

68

PER SUBJECT

AL 1(BEST)

AL 2

AL 3

AL 4

AL 5

AL 6

AL 7

AL 8 (UNGRADED)

NEW SYSTEM

• The PSLE Score replaces the T-score Aggregate.

• The PSLE Score ranges from 4 to 32, with 4 being the best.

• Compared to the T-score Aggregate, students are less finely differentiated.

4 SUBJECT ALs WILL BE ADDED TO FORM THE PSLE SCORE

OUR HOPES FOR OUR CHILDRENLOOKING BEYOND ACADEMIC RESULTS

72

• Level of achievement regardless of how

his peers have done.

• Replaces T-score Aggregates, reducing

fine differentiation.

• Choice order in making school choices.

REDUCE OVER-EMPHASIS ON ACADEMIC RESULTS
