The GCE N-level results will be released next Monday (Dec 19) from 2pm onwards, the Ministry of Education (MOE) announced in a press release today (Dec 12).
Students may obtain their result slips from their respective schools.
According to MOE, private candidates will be notified of their individual results by post. The result slips will be mailed on Dec 19 to the addresses provided by the candidates during the registration period.
Students who qualify for the Polytechnic Foundation Programme (PFP) may apply when the window opens in Jan 2017, which is also the day the results of the GCE O-level Examinations are released.
The PFP is a diploma-specific foundation programme conducted over two academic semesters at the polytechnics. According to MOE, it caters to students who have decided to pursue a polytechnic education and meet the PFP eligibility requirements.
The PFP is an alternative to the Secondary 5 year as GCE N-level graduates under the programme will not sit for the O levels.
Those who are interested in applying for the PFP should first commence their Secondary 5 year on Jan 3 next year, while awaiting notification of eligibility and confirmation of a place in polytechnic, MOE said.
Alternatively, students who wish to apply for courses offered by the Institute of Technical Education (ITE) can submit their applications online via the ITE application portal upon collection of their results.
Hard copy application forms will also be available at customer service centres at each of the three ITE colleges.
For candidates who are in the Direct-Entry-Scheme to Polytechnic Programme (DPP), a copy of Form N will be given to them from their secondary schools, inviting them to apply for the DPP.
Applications for DPP can be submitted online via the ITE application portal between 2.30 pm on Dec 19 and 5pm on Dec 22.
