Description
Ministry of Education CSV on the percentage of PSLE students who scored A*–C in Standard English Language by year and race from 1997 through 2020 under the former T-score system. Results are not comparable with the Achievement Level (AL) series that began in 2021. Education researchers track English attainment gaps across ethnic groups in the pre-AL PSLE era.
Official description
The first year that students sat for the PSLE under the new Achievement Level (AL) scoring system was in 2021. Under the new system, there are eight ALs, AL 1-8. The new AL scoring differs from the T-score system and results from the two systems are not comparable. As such, a new series of statistics was started from 2021 PSLE. The T-score series before 2021 PSLE are available on Data.gov.sg.
