For ACS (Primary), it would not be tenable for the school to remain boys-only after moving to Tengah because it would constrain school options for families in the area, says the Ministry of Education.
SINGAPORE: The Ministry of Education does not have a plan to proactively convert single-gender schools to co-ed schools, Education Minister Chan Chun Sing said on Tuesday .
But new schools opened by MOE are generally co-ed to ensure that they meet local demand for school places for both boys and girls. For ACS , MOE explained to the ACS board of governors that"it would not be tenable" for the school to take in only boys at its Tengah location because it would constrain school options for families in the area.
The ministry takes a “customised approach” and holds discussions with key decision-makers in a school to facilitate the transition and provide support when converting a school from single-gender to co-ed.
