, a student taking the PSLE will receive a new Achievement Level score of 1-8 in each of their four subjects, with AL1 being the highest a student can score, and AL8 the lowest.The sum of these ALs will make up the student's final score, which will be known as the PSLE Score. The range of possible scores will be from 4 to 32.Once SSB is implemented, a student with a PSLE score of 4 to 20 will be eligible for subjects at the highest G3 level, MOE said.
For those who score 26 to 30, the student would be eligible for subjects at the G1 level, if he or she has an AL of 7 and above in English and Mathematics. A student needs a score of at most 30 to have passed the PSLE. For example, a student with a PSLE score of 23 who did very well for English would take most subjects at the G2 level, but be offered English at a higher G3 level when they enter secondary school.MOE added in its response that the PSLE scores will continue to serve as a “good initial gauge” of the pace of learning that students are most suited for at the beginning of Secondary 1.
