The Evolution of Singapore's Education System: From 1965 to the Present
Singapore's education system, integral to the nation's success, has transformed significantly since 1965. Initially focused on providing basic education and reducing dropout rates, it evolved in the 1980s to emphasize efficiency and quality.

Recent years have focused on student-centric, values-driven education, reducing exam stress, embracing technology, and ensuring inclusivity. Understanding this evolution helps us appreciate the current dynamic education landscape that continues to adapt to future challenges while maintaining core values.
