How Are These Schools Ranked?
These rankings are based on the number of MOE accolades that each school receives which can be seen when you visit the official website for MOE’s School Information Services (SIS). You will be able to see the awards and other achievements of the primary school you’re looking for in their “School Outcomes” tab.
Since MOE’s decision to simplify the way they recognise schools from 2014, these are the awards that have been given more emphasis for schools:
- Social Distinction Award (SDA)
- Outstanding Development Award (ODA)
- Development Award (DA)
- The Best Practice Award (BPA)
