You can appeal for a school transfer if your child has a serious medical condition and you assess that the posted secondary school is unable to accommodate your child’s physical health. Appeals must be filed at your child’s posted secondary school by 12pm on the following working day after the release of S1 posting results.

Note: If you are seeking a school transfer due to other reasons, you can check the preferred school’s website for more information. Your child’s PSLE score must meet the school’s cut-off point for that year. School transfers will be subject to available vacancies and meeting the school’s admission criteria. As schools will need time to process the appeals, the outcome may be available only from mid-January. While schools have the discretion to consider appeal requests, they may not be able to accept appeals due to limited vacancies.

It is crucial to consider the potential disruption to your child’s learning. Allowing your child to settle into their current education environment without interruption can facilitate a smoother transition into their newly posted secondary school.
