Q: What is the current status of APMOPS 2026?
A: The online Round 1 ran on 16 April for Singapore P6 pupils and Malaysian schools, and on 18 April for Singapore P5 pupils and other overseas centres. Round 1 results were due through the portal by 1 May. The Invitation Round and prize presentation took place at Hwa Chong Institution on 30 May. Registration is closed.
Last reviewed: 19 July 2026 against Hwa Chong Institution's current Round 1, Invitation Round, and results pages.
The two Singapore entry routes were different
The previous guide said every Singapore candidate had to be nominated and registered by a school. That was correct for P6 but not for P5 in 2026.
| Cohort | Eligibility and registration | Competition setting |
| Singapore P6 | All P6 pupils were eligible. A teacher registered pupils through the school portal from 1 to 28 February. | Participating pupil's school on 16 April, after curriculum hours |
| Singapore P5 | All P5 pupils from Singapore schools were eligible. Registration details came through the school, but parents completed registration by 15 February. | Home or another preferred suitable venue on 18 April |
The fee was S$20 inclusive of GST for both cohorts. P6 schools were invoiced after the competition. P5 parents paid during registration, and the fee was non-refundable.
Both registration deadlines have passed.
Round 1 format
