Committee of Supply 2022 debate, Day 4: Hazel Poa on through-train programme to bypass PSLE
PSLE remains the most stressful examination for local parents and students despite changes in assessment, said NCMP Hazel Poa in Parliament on Monday (Mar 7). She reiterated a call to the Ministry of Education to consider implementing a pilot 10-year through-train programme for primary and secondary school students, giving them a choice to bypass the PSLE. Ms Poa also asked about self-initiated learning in secondary schools, junior colleges and Millennia Institute. She wanted to know how many schools have implemented it and if so how, and what the outcomes have been.
