PSLE

PSLE, known as Primary School Leaving Examination, is the final examinations for most of the Primary Six students, in which Primary Six is the last year of primary school. There are subjects for every PSLE in standard stream, such as English, Mathematics, Mother Tongue, Higher Mother Tongue, and Science. There are also subjects for every PSLE in foundation stream, such as Foundation English, Foundation Mathematics, Foundation Mother Tongue, and Foundation Science. Because of PSLE examinations, most of the Primary Six students will take part to decide whether they can go to Secondary School, or to stay back for one more year in primary school. Whenever they can go to Secondary School, there are two streams where students will take part in only one stream. They are the Express stream and the Normal stream. Once students are posted to take part in the Normal stream, the Normal stream is divided into two smaller streams, where students will take part in only one smaller stream. They are the Academic stream and the Technical stream. The Express stream is the hardest of all the other streams, where there are more new topics than the ones in other streams. The Normal stream is easier, with the fewer number of topics than the ones in the Express stream, where some questions made in the Express stream are harder for the students in the Normal stream. Because of that, PSLE is the final examinations for the Primary Six students.
