Is it too early to study abroad after the middle school entrance exam?
Studying abroad at a young age helps students gain the advantage of bilingual learning earlier, enjoy a globalized environment and perspective, and develop multiple skills. Whether staying abroad for further education or returning to China for employment, they have greater advantages.

What are the advantages of studying in Singapore?
- Diverse Education System
Singapore’s advanced education system allows students to choose the most suitable path for their academic advancement at different stages, rather than being determined by a single exam result.
- Comprehensive Education Assessment, Not Just Scores
In China, a small difference in exam scores can have a huge impact on students. Singapore’s O-levels and A-levels exams have a scientific and humane grading mechanism. Even with a slight difference in scores, it will not greatly affect the final result.
- Bilingual Education
Singapore adopts a bilingual education system that combines Chinese and Western elements. While emphasizing proficiency in the mother tongue, it also focuses on Western integration, effectively helping students improve their English proficiency.
- Convenience of Living
Singapore has always been one of the safest countries in the world, with high social efficiency and convenience in daily life. After the middle school entrance exam, children basically have the conditions for independent living. This is a great opportunity for them to study in Singapore.
- Cost-Effectiveness
Compared to other countries, the cost of studying abroad in Singapore is relatively low and more affordable. Singapore’s education and living expenses are about 30% cheaper than those in Europe.
Furthermore, the approval rate for student visas in Singapore is very high. They can continue to work in Singapore after graduation. The relatively minor cultural differences compared to China and the ease of integration into the local environment for younger children are all unique advantages that make Singapore the top choice for studying abroad.
