O-Level & Integrated Programme

SJI is an all-boys-only secondary school for both O-Level and Integrated Programmes.

Female students may join SJI (junior college) in Year 5 under the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) after their GCE O-Levels.


• Admission Criteria For Secondary 1

Primary 6 boys are admitted into Secondary 1 at SJI based on the merit of their PSLE scores. Those with talents in sports, arts or innovation can apply to be admitted via Direct School Admission (DSA).

Those who are unsuccessful in gaining admission based on their PSLE score may appeal for a place at SJI if there are vacancies. Applicants appealing for admission to SJI MUST meet the cut-off point (COP) of the particular programme.

Unless there are exceptional circumstances, we do not admit boys into Secondary 1 who have not sat for the PSLE examinations or SPERS-Sec.

For more details, please see Entry Into Secondary 1.


• Admission To Integrated Programme Secondary 3

The SJI Integrated Programme (IP) Secondary 3 is open for application to boys in Secondary 2 who are currently in the O-level programme and are NOT admitted to their current secondary school (other than SJI), via the Direct School Admission (DSA) Exercise.

For more details, please see Admission To Integrated Programme Secondary 3.


• Transfer from Another Singapore School

Local students (boys only) wishing to transfer to SJI at Secondary 2 or 3 are required to sit for an SJI Entrance Test.

Unless there are exceptional circumstances, we do not accept any transfer of students into Secondary 4 as the 10 months duration available would not be sufficient time for the school to prepare the students admitted adequately for the GCE 'O' level examinations.

There is no vacancy for Sec 2 & 3 OP track in 2020.


• Returning Singaporeans

Returning Singaporeans (boys only) who would like to join secondary schools at Secondary 1, Secondary 2, and Secondary 3 at the beginning of the next academic year are to register for the MOE SPERS-Sec. The advantage of registering for the MOE SPERS-Sec is that the results could be used to gain admission into the best available secondary school in order of merit that has a vacancy without the need for further testing by the school.

Alternatively, boys who would like to seek admission into SJI at Secondary 2 or Secondary 3 at the beginning of the next academic year can also consider sitting for an SJI Entrance Test. Those who would like to seek admission into SJI at Secondary 1 are advised to sit for the SPERS-Sec and use the SPERS-Sec results to gain admission.
