Free tool · 2026 intake cut-off points

Which secondary schools can your child enter?

Enter a PSLE AL score and see every school whose latest cut-off point it meets, across the Integrated Programme and Posting Groups 3, 2 and 1. Figures come from MOE SchoolFinder, from the most recent S1 posting exercise (2025 posting, 2026 intake).

A cut-off point is last year's closing score, not a promise. Use this to shortlist, then confirm on MOE SchoolFinder.

We will list every school whose latest cut-off point your child's score meets, grouped by track, most competitive first.

Mind the gap

A point or two of AL score can change this whole list.

Math is where most of that movement happens. A free diagnostic tells you exactly where the marks are leaking, and what it would take to close the gap to your target school.

Cut-off points, questions parents ask

What exactly is a cut-off point (COP)?

A school's COP is the PSLE score of the last student admitted in the previous year's S1 posting. Your child is eligible to be considered if their score is equal to or better than it, but because it moves with each cohort's demand, treat it as a guide rather than a promise.

What happens if my child scores exactly the COP?

If more students tie at the cut-off than there are places, MOE breaks ties by citizenship first, then by the order the school was listed in the child's six choices, then by computerised balloting. Choice order genuinely matters.

How does affiliation change the numbers?

Schools that reserve places for students from affiliated primary schools publish a second, more lenient cut-off for them. It applies only to that specific pairing, and the child must list the school as a choice to use it. Tick the affiliation box above to see these.

Why does a school show 30 as its cut-off?

A figure of 30 usually reflects MOE's "30*" marking: the school still had vacancies after posting, so every eligible applicant in that posting group was admitted. In practice the school was open at that group.

How current is this data?

The tool uses cut-off points from the 2025 S1 posting exercise (the 2026 intake), the most recent MOE has published, compiled from MOE SchoolFinder in May 2026. Always confirm on SchoolFinder before finalising school choices.
