PSLE Science Syllabus 2026: Topics & Weightage Guide

Achievers dream - psle science syllabus 2026

About the PSLE Science Syllabus

The  2023 Science Syllabus for current students (Primary) is implemented progressively from 2023. 

Primary 3 students in 2023 will be offered the:

  • P4 syllabus in 2026, 
  • P5 syllabus in 2026,
  • and P6 syllabus in 2026.

Unlike secondary school topics that are clearly divided into physics, chemistry and biology, the primary school syllabus is more focused on building interest and stimulating curiosity for primary school students.

Therefore, a focus on topics such as living things, plant systems, and human biology form a large proportion of the syllabus.

For Students that are applying for secondary schools for the academic year of 2026, refer to the AL levels and secondary school cut off points here: Secondary school Entry Requirements
