The proxy secondary school ranking of 2012 has been compiled below. The rankings are based on the PSLE results of the 2012 intake of secondary 1 Express students. The minimum cut-off points for entry into the express streams of the schools form the basis of this proxy ranking. Please note that actual rankings from MOE are only available in banding format and are based on the 'O' level results. The following ranking only provides a proxy solely based on the academic calibre of new students accepted into schools. Some interesting observations to note are that Jurongville and Kent Ridge secondary schools jumped up 6 spots after increasing their minimum cut-off by 4 and 2 points respectively. The biggest drop was registered by St. Theresa's Convent, which fell 15 places after lowering their cut-off from 230 to 224. View Secondary School Ranking 2013

* ACS Barker accepts affiliated students only ** Cedar Girls' and Victoria School have started accepting Integrated Program (IP) students at secondary 1 level. Cedar's cut-off for the IP is 258, while Victoria's is 255. The race for brainy students will heat up when 6 other schools start accepting IP students at secondary 1 level, starting in 2013. These schools include St Joseph's Institution, Anglo Chinese School (Independent), Singapore Chinese Girls', Catholic High, St. Nicholas and Methodist Girls'. The original data provided by MOE came with the median PSLE scores of each school's new cohort, and most of them are basically additions of 2-9 points from the minimum cut-off points as shown above. The definite trend is therefore that the majority of students take cut-off points as one of their main considerations in their school selection. See the Singapore JC Ranking 2012 View more articles
