How the cut-off points work

Every January, MOE's Secondary 1 posting sets each school's cut-off point: the PSLE score of its last-admitted pupil. This page holds those points for 139 secondary schools — Integrated Programme, Posting Group 3, 2 and 1, plus the separate affiliated cut-offs. A score sits within reach when it is equal to or lower than the school's point, and the posting itself still depends on your child's cohort, the order of your six choices and the places left when their turn comes.

What each score can reach

Questions parents ask

Is the cut-off point a pass mark?

No. It is a record of what happened last year — the score of the last pupil posted in. A school with a cut-off of 12 may take a 13 one year and stop at 11 the next, depending on how many pupils put it down and how they ranked it.

How many schools do I submit?

Six, in order of preference. Order matters more than most parents expect: the posting runs down your list in sequence, so a realistic school placed sixth can still be missed if the five above it fill up.

My child's primary school is affiliated. What changes?

Affiliated pupils are considered against a separate cut-off, usually several points more lenient, and that place is held for them before the general intake. Tick the affiliated box above and those schools appear in the list with the affiliated point shown.

What if two pupils have the same score?

Tie-breaks run in order: citizenship, then choice order, then computerised balloting. A few schools also use Higher Chinese as a tie-break, marked in the list.

When does the option window open?

Within a few days of the PSLE results release, and it closes quickly — usually under a week. That short window is the reason to have your six schools settled before results day.

How to read this. The cut-off point is the PSLE score of the last pupil admitted in the most recent Secondary 1 posting. It is a gauge, not a guaranteed entry mark — actual postings depend on your child's cohort, school choices and vacancies. Some cut-offs are tie-broken by Higher Chinese, marked HCL. Affiliated cut-offs apply only to pupils from the affiliated primary school. Specialised and DSA-only schools (NUS High, SST, SOTA, Singapore Sports School, Crest, Spectra, NorthLight, Assumption Pathway) admit through their own exercises and are not listed. Always verify with MOE SchoolFinder.

Direct School Admission. A confirmed DSA place is offered on talent before PSLE results and is not subject to the cut-off points shown here. The next DSA-Sec application window is expected in May 2027.
