FURTHER EDUCATION in SINGAPORE in 2000 The
FURTHER EDUCATION IN SINGAPORE In 2000 the Compulsory Education Act codified compulsory education for children of primary school age, and made it a criminal offence for parents to fail to enroll their children in school and ensure their regular attendance. Compulsory Education (CE) was implemented in Singapore in 2003 for children born between 2 January 1996 and 1 January 1997 who are residing in Singapore. The Ministry of Education (Singapore) (http://www.moe.gov.sg/) formulates and implements the policies related to education in Singapore and has developed a world- leading education system comprising the following levels: Pre-School; Primary; Secondary; Pre-University; and Post-Secondary. In the recent Global Competitiveness Report Singapore was ranked first in the world for the quality of its educational system (http://www3.weforum.org/docs/WEF_GlobalCompetitivenessReport_2010-11.pdf). 1. Pre-University Education Upon completion of secondary school education, students will participate in the annual Singaporean GCE 'O' Level, the results of which determine which pre- universities or post-secondary institutions they may apply for. Pre-university centres include junior colleges for a two-year course leading up to GCE 'A' Level, or the Millennia Institute for a three-year course leading up to GCE 'A' Level. Both junior colleges and the Millennia Institute accept students on merit, with a greater emphasis on academics than professional technical education. Students who wish to pursue a professional-centred diploma education go on instead to post-secondary institutions such as the polytechnics and the Institute of Technical Education (ITE). 1.1 Pre-University centres The pre-university centres of Singapore are designed for upper-stream students (roughly about 20%-25% of those going into further education) who wish to pursue a university degree after two to three years of pre-university education, rather than stopping after polytechnic post-secondary education.

Open Learning in Singapore
Open Learning in Singapore Alvin SAW and Thiam Seng KOH Educational Technology Division Ministry of Education, Singapore Abstract Although Open Learning is not a concept that is widely used in Singapore public education institutions, we shares that Open Learning is of strategic importance to Singapore education as the country prepares to meet the challenges of a knowledge-driven economy. We propose three principles that form the wheel of Open Learning, which can be “turned” by ICT as a driver. The three principles are the ‘minimising of constraints to access to learning’, ‘Learner-Centred’ learning that include the recognition of ‘prior learning and experience’ and ‘flexible learning’. We shares that there are already examples of Singapore public educational institutions implementing aspects of Open Learning. These institutions have already a good ICT infrastructure in place to minimise access constraints to learning beyond the physical “classroom” boundaries. The challenge ahead for the Singapore public educational institutions in Open Learning is to be able to more fully articulate the latter two principles of Learner-Centred” learning and flexible learning. Introduction Singapore is a compact island city with a population of about 4.2 million people over an approximate land area of merely 700 sq km. Distance Learning as in correspondence education, home study or external studies is not very well developed historically especially when compared to countries such as the US, Canada, Australia and SEAMEO countries such as Indonesia or Malaysia. Distance Learning in Singapore is generally associated with private educational institutions offering distance learning degree programmes of foreign universities. Generally, students on these distance learning programmes are taught by local teachers or lecturers from the foreign universities based in Singapore during office hours or in the evening depending on whether the students are full-time students or working adults studying on a part-time basis.
