Direct School Admission 2020

The Direct School Application will be a way for students to find a secondary school and secure their spot even before receiving their PSLE results. One way they can gain admission is if they have talents across activities such as Sports or Arts or even Uniformed Groups that the school is looking for.

Parents who are keen should be looking for a suitable school from now until the end of April. In May and June, it will be time to send in your child’s application.

The months July and August will be for auditions, trials and interviews.

Finally, at the end of October, you get to shortlist three of your preferred schools before receiving the results in late November.
 

Hmm, but which schools to apply for? And will your child have the talent that they are looking for? More importantly, would your child like the school that they are going to if they are selected?
 

Our Learning Lodge has compiled a list of schools around the Jurong area and other schools which parents might be more interested in to make it easier for you to narrow down your options for your child. Each school has a list of talents they are looking for so see what they have to offer as Co-Curriculum Activities below and we hope your decision-making process will be much easier:
