Direct School Admission for Secondary 1

DIRECT SCHOOL ADMISSION TO MGS SECONDARY 1

Parents or students interested in participating in the 2026 DSA-Sec exercise for the 2027 Secondary 1 intake, please check the updates below. Thank you.

DSA-Sec provides a pathway for students to gain admission to MGS based on their interests, aptitude, and potential, beyond their performance at Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE). Otherwise, students will take part in the Secondary 1 Posting Exercise, whereby admission is based on their PSLE results.

As MGS is a dual track school with both the Integrated Programme (IP) and Singapore-Cambridge Secondary Education Certificate (SEC) Programme, our DSA talent areas are applicable for both tracks. 

• The MGS IP is a six-year integrated programme that leads to the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme at Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) in Years 5 and 6.

• The MGS SEC Programme is a four-year programme culminating in the Singapore-Cambridge SEC examinations, after which various post-secondary options are available.

For more information about DSA-Sec, parents can refer to the MOE website at https://www.moe.gov.sg/secondary/dsa.
