Special School Placement

School Placement Exercise for Returning Singaporeans - Junior Colleges / Millennia Institute (SPERS–JC/MI)

SPERS-JC/MI is a centralised placement exercise conducted at the end of the year for RS who wish to join the Pre-University 1 level at the beginning of the next academic year.

RS who wish to pursue the pre-university course in a JC/MI should take note that the pre-university course is an intensive and rigorous course and only those who have been assessed to be suitable for the course will be offered a place.

As admission to JC/MI is merit-based, RS who wish to participate in SPERS-JC/MI will be required to sit for SPERS-JC/MI papers comprising English, Mathematics and General Ability papers. Based on their performance in the SPERS-JC/MI papers, the RS will be provided with a list of JCs/MI where students with similar abilities are already studying. RS may then approach any of the JCs/MI on their list to apply for admission.

Participating in SPERS-JC/MI does not guarantee eligibility for admission to JC/MI as admission is dependent on the candidates overall performance in the SPERS-JC/MI papers. Unsuccessful candidates can approach their JC/MI of choice directly, after the exercise. Alternatively, they may consider other post-secondary courses offered by the Polytechnics, Institute of Education (ITE) or Privately Funded Schools.

SPERS-JC/MI is not compulsory and is targeted at RS who return at the end of the year and prefer the convenience of a centralized placement exercise. As such, RS who require flexibility in timing or who have strong preferences for specific JC/MI are encouraged to approach their JC/MI of choice directly for consideration. They may do so before or after the SPERS exercise.

SPERS-JC/MI is conducted in two phases:

(i) Eligibility Phase

(ii) School Admission Phase

Eligibility Phase

Under the Eligibility Phase, RS will sit for English, Mathematics and General Ability papers to determine their eligibility for admission into JC/MI.

School Admission Phase

Based on the overall performance of RS in the Eligibility Phase, successful candidates will each receive a list of schools that they are eligible for. RS may approach any of the JCs/MI on their lists (that they are eligible for) for admission, and can choose any course/subject combination offered by the JC/MI approached, provided they meet the subject pre-requisites (e.g. Additional Mathematics for H2 Mathematics). RS without the subject pre-requisites for the course/subject combinations may be further assessed by the JC/MI.
