What Happens After Matokeo Darasa la Saba?

Once the results are out, the next step is allocating students to Form One.

Form One Eligibility and Selection Criteria

• Students must meet a minimum grade threshold, often “C” or its equivalent, to be eligible for secondary school.
• Students with higher grades (A, B, C) tend to get preference for more competitive, well-resourced schools.
• All eligible students will be placed somewhere, but a better score brings more options.

Form One Timeline and Allocation Process

Here are the steps that show how allocation usually works:

1. Scores are gathered. All PSLE scores and ranking data are collected.
2. Choices and capacity are considered. Student choices, if applicable, and school capacities are reviewed.
3. Allocation is done. Students are assigned to schools according to their performance and available slots.
4. Placements are shared. Schools and students are informed of placements.

Secondary schools have limited seats, especially top institutions, so competition can be intense. Some students may not get their first-choice school but will still receive a placement.
