Schools with Specialised Programmes

Schools offering specialised programmes have a place in a diversifying education system, said Minster for Education Ong Ye Kung. Schools that only take in N(T) students or express students, for instance, help cater specifically to different segments of learners, such as those with high academic ability, strengths in specific areas, or who prefer a more technical education. These schools therefore complement the plan to move beyond streaming.

Minister Ong was speaking in Parliament at the Committee-of-Supply Debates 2019 on 5 March 2019.
