First, the characteristics of primary education in Singapore
1. Primary education in Singapore is six years. Singapore's fourth grade primary school has a school-level unified examination as the first diversion, which is language flow. This diversion divides students into three grades: em 1, em2 and em3, which gradually reduces the requirements for language learning. Diversion education not only cultivates senior elite talents, but also provides reliable vocational training. Without wasting resources, people in society can do their jobs well and achieve social harmony and stability.
2. Singapore's education system follows the British education system, so it pays attention to cultivating students' innovative thinking and practical ability. The perspective of primary education in Singapore, the ways to solve things and so on. Primary schools in Singapore have many advantages. For China people, Singapore is one of the few bilingual countries in the world that actively advocates English and Chinese. Students can receive both British education in line with the world and traditional education of China culture since childhood.
3. Primary schools in Singapore pay attention to quality training. Primary and secondary school students in Singapore have half-day classes, half-day in the morning or half-day in the afternoon, and the remaining half-day is quality-oriented extracurricular activities, such as design and craft, art and labor, civic and moral education, sports and music. Almost every school has dozens of extracurricular activities.
4. Singapore attaches importance to education supervision. The Singapore government has a special education supervision department to evaluate schools, principals, teachers and classroom teaching. The evaluation strategy is scientific and rigorous. For example, the quality evaluation of teachers should examine their ability to cultivate students' all-round development, master subject knowledge, win people's hearts and cooperate with others.
Education in Singapore is fair, with no power or money. As long as children get good grades, they may enter famous schools. Although there is a back door, it is really insignificant compared with China. Therefore, if parents want their children to have a relaxed and happy childhood and play after school, then go to Europe and America. If a child is unwilling to study or his parents don't have enough energy and financial resources to help him, he should go to China and ask a teacher to teach him. If children are talented and love learning, or parents have enough energy to help their children with their lessons, or have enough financial resources to ask their children to do so, they can choose to go to primary school in Singapore.
