Short answer: MOE lists 17 institutions offering the Integrated Programme from Year 1. Thirteen lead to the GCE A-Level, three lead to the IB Diploma, and one leads to the NUS High School Diploma.
Last reviewed: 4 August 2026. MOE's current Integrated Programme page still supports the 17-institution count and the three qualification routes below. Use MOE SchoolFinder and the school's current website before submitting an application.
Nine Year 1 schools continue to one of four partner institutions:
Catholic High School, CHIJ St. Nicholas Girls' School and Singapore Chinese Girls' School continue to Eunoia Junior College.
Nanyang Girls' High School and Hwa Chong Institution (Secondary) continue to Hwa Chong Institution.
Raffles Girls' School and Raffles Institution (Secondary) continue to Raffles Institution.
Victoria School and Cedar Girls' Secondary School continue to Victoria Junior College.
Dunman High School, National Junior College, River Valley High School and Temasek Junior College operate the A-Level route as six-year institutions.
Three IB Diploma routes
Year 1 institution
Final qualification
Years 5 and 6 institution
Anglo-Chinese School (Independent)
IB Diploma
Same six-year institution
Methodist Girls' School
IB Diploma
Anglo-Chinese School (Independent)
St. Joseph's Institution
IB Diploma
Same six-year institution
Methodist Girls' School students continue to Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) for Years 5 and 6. The other two are listed by MOE as six-year institutions.
School of the Arts and Singapore Sports School also offer the IB Diploma, but MOE describes them as specialised independent schools rather than IP schools. They are therefore not added to this 17-school IP count.
One NUS High School Diploma route
Year 1 institution
Final qualification
Years 5 and 6 institution
NUS High School of Mathematics and Science
NUS High School Diploma
Same six-year institution
NUS High School of Mathematics and Science runs a six-year course leading to its own diploma. MOE states that admission is through DSA-Sec. NUS High does not participate in the S1 Posting exercise.
The count is based on institutions that admit students to IP from Year 1. A partner junior college is shown as the Years 5 and 6 destination, not counted again as another Year 1 institution.
What IP establishes, and what it does not
IP is a six-year course. Students do not need to take the Singapore-Cambridge Secondary Education Certificate in Secondary 4 and instead continue towards their route's final qualification.
The label does not mean that all 17 institutions share the same subjects, electives, assessment rules, promotion criteria, fees, support arrangements or campus model. MOE states that compulsory subjects and certifications vary across schools and that every IP school's programme is unique.
Most students enter secondary school through S1 Posting after PSLE results. NUS High is the exception in this list because it uses DSA-Sec rather than S1 Posting.
The current MOE page records the completed 2025 exercise: PSLE results were released on 25 November 2025, choices closed on 1 December, and posting results were released on 19 December. These dates are historical references, not the schedule for the next exercise.
For a future application:
wait for MOE to publish that cycle's dates;
verify that the school and IP route appear in the current S1 materials;
use the previous year's PSLE score range only as a reference;
check the student's eligibility and school-choice order; and
confirm any school-specific language or admissions requirements.
MOE explains that the cut-off point is the score of the last student posted. It can move from year to year, and meeting it does not guarantee posting because tie-breakers may apply. For dual-track schools, affiliation priority applies only to the SEC route, not the IP route.
MOE's 2026 DSA-Sec page says that the application period closed at 4.30 pm on 2 June 2026. Do not reuse that date for a later intake. Schools offer different talent areas, selection processes and schedules.
Successful DSA-Sec applicants must still qualify for a Posting Group offered by the school. They must honour their commitment for the programme duration, cannot submit school choices during S1 Posting, and cannot transfer to another school after PSLE results.
NUS High requires this route. For the other institutions, verify the active talent areas and selection details in MOE SchoolFinder and on the school website.
Appeals after S1 Posting
MOE separates appeals by reason.
Serious medical conditions or severe physical impairments: the appeal is filed through the posted school and considered only on an exceptional basis with supporting documents. The student should continue attending the posted school while waiting.
Non-medical reasons: submit the appeal directly to the preferred school. The student must meet its actual S1 Posting cut-off point and admissions criteria, and the school must have a vacancy. Meeting those conditions does not guarantee transfer.
Use MOE's current S1 transfer-appeal page and the preferred school's current instructions. Do not carry an old school's appeal window or cut-off point into a later cycle.
A verification-first shortlist
For every school under consideration, record:
the final qualification and Years 5 and 6 institution;
the current admissions route and cycle dates;
the previous score range and its tie-breaker limitations;
subjects, electives and school-specific progression rules;
language requirements and programme commitments;
current fees and applicable financial assistance;
CCAs, support arrangements and accessibility needs; and
the actual weekday journey to each campus involved.
These are comparison fields, not a ranking. The official school information should take priority over an older summary or an assumed feature of the IP label.
