The Singapore International Primary School Examination (š¯‘–PSLE) is the international version of Singapore's Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE). The š¯‘–PSLE was introduced with the aim of allowing overseas schools to benchmark their academic standards against Singapore's standard.
A total of four subjects are offered to students taking the š¯‘–PSLE, namely English Language, Mathematics, Science and Chinese Language. Students may register for a minimum of one subject. The formats are similar to those of the Singapore PSLE.
Good performing š¯‘–PSLE candidates may have the opportunity to be considered for the ASEAN Scholarship (opens in new tab). Join the mailing list (opens in new tab) to receive further updates.
