Do P1 to P5 students still go to school during PSLE marking days?

It depends on your school. Some primary schools adjust operations - for example, shortening school hours or converting to self-study days. Check with your school for the exact arrangement. MOE publishes school term and holiday details in its annual press release.

Are PSLE marking days a public holiday?

No. PSLE marking days are not a gazetted public holiday. They are an internal exercise where teachers mark PSLE papers. Primary schools may adjust their schedule, but it is not a day off for all Singaporeans. For the official list of public holidays, see MOM's gazette.

What happens to student care during PSLE marking days?

Most school-based student care centres remain open during marking days, but hours may change. Contact your student care provider directly for the confirmed schedule.

When are PSLE results released after marking?

PSLE results are typically released in late November, about 5 to 6 weeks after the marking exercise ends. MOE will announce the exact date closer to the release. Watch SEAB's important dates page for the confirmed date. ---
