Education System In Singapore

The education system in Singapore is perfect. I am unable to find any flaws in the education system.

Firstly, teenagers as young as 16 are forced to make a decision on which diploma they want to study in polytechnics. Usually, if one is studying the diploma, one will stay in that industry. In this way, the education system ensures that there are enough workers in most industry to support the economy in Singapore. There will not be shortage of workers in any of the sectors. Students with lower grades go to the less demanded industry and students with higher grades go to the sunrise industry.

Secondly, the A-levels are marked in Cambridge. This ensures that students who have taken the A-levels are able to enter overseas universities and having their certificates recognized. In this way, a student with weak communication skills but good examinations technique will also be able to do well in A-levels and have a very nice certificate, increasing their chances of entering a good University. Many Junior College also provide students with long answer keys to memorize before the examination. The perfect education system have ensured that many top students are produced and the Singapore brand is well-known in the world.

Thirdly, the cornerstone of education is to inculcate in student values and knowledge that will aid them in their life. As the society progress, there are more and more cases of divorce, underage pregnancy and disowning of parents. I guess this is the ideal result of the perfect education system in Singapore. By spending minimal time on Civics and Morale Education, students are not enforced with the correct values. This is perfect because student will have the working knowledge required and will do better than their parents or spouse. If everybody tries to out do one another, the competition will result in a good Singapore economy.

Education system in Singapore is perfect and should not be changed anymore. Looking forward, many countries will adopt our education system, and have their own education system replaced.
