PSLE cut-off point for Unity Secondary School
MOE publishes the PSLE score of the first and the last student posted into each school at each posting group. Below are Unity Secondary School's figures for the 2026 Secondary 1 intake — the 2025 PSLE cohort. The last student's score is what is usually meant by the school's cut-off point.
| Posting group | PSLE score range |
|---|---|
| Posting Group 3 | AL 12–18 |
| Posting Group 2 | AL 21–24 |
| Posting Group 1 | AL 25–28 |
Cut-off points move by a few points from year to year, and not every student who met the cut-off was posted here — some are tie-broken out. Read these as a guide to where a school sits, not as a threshold to clear.

What this intake means for the Maths your child will sit
A posting group decides the level a student takes each subject at from Secondary 1, not only which class they are in — and under Full Subject-Based Banding a student who did well enough in a subject at PSLE can take that subject at a more demanding level than their posting group's default. So the score above is the start of the Mathematics your child sits at Unity Secondary School, not the whole of it.
- Secondary 1 G3 Math syllabus
Posting Group 3 students take Mathematics at G3 by default — the fastest of the three, and the usual route into Additional Mathematics from Secondary 3.
- Secondary 1 G2 Math syllabus
Posting Group 2 students take Mathematics at G2 by default, covering most of the G3 content at a steadier pace.
- Secondary 1 G1 Math syllabus
Posting Group 1 students take Mathematics at G1 by default, building the foundations in smaller steps.
- Secondary Math syllabus, all four years

School Overview
Unity Secondary School is a government co-educational institution that began operations in 1999 in Choa Chu Kang. It runs on a single-session schedule and serves students from a wide range of backgrounds. The school offers Mother Tongue instruction in Chinese, Malay, and Tamil, though it does not hold Special Assistance Plan (SAP) status.
The school operates under the motto "Leading Self, Serving Others" and is guided by five core values: Respect, Commitment, Integrity, Compassion, and Perseverance. Its stated mission centres on nurturing students who are resilient, future-ready, and motivated to contribute to the community. The school's educational approach is grounded in the belief that each student has distinct strengths and the capacity to grow.
Two signature programmes define Unity's academic identity. The Applied Learning Programme (ALP) in STEM-Sustainability, themed around "The Future of Food," engages students in projects related to urban farming and environmental science. The Learning for Life Programme (LLP) in Sports and Outdoor Education, titled "Lead through Outdoor and Sporting Adventures," develops leadership skills through physical challenges and experiential activities.
Admission Process
Students are admitted to Unity Secondary School primarily through the annual PSLE posting exercise. Based on the most recent intake, indicative Achievement Level (AL) cut-off points for non-affiliated students were: Posting Group 3 (AL 12-18), Posting Group 2 (AL 21-24), and Posting Group 1 (AL 25-27). The school does not have formal affiliations with any primary school.
Direct School Admission (DSA) is available for students with strengths in specific sports. Categories include Basketball (Boys and Girls), Table Tennis (Boys and Girls), Volleyball (Girls), Football (Boys), and Track and Field (Boys and Girls).
Unity fully implements Full Subject-Based Banding (SBB), which allows students to take individual subjects at different levels (G1 to G3) from Secondary 2 onward. This structure provides flexibility for students to be stretched in their stronger subjects while receiving appropriate support in others. The school does not offer the Integrated Programme (IP); all students follow academic streams leading to the GCE O-Level examinations.
Curriculum and Academic Programme
The academic programme at Unity Secondary School follows the national O-Level curriculum. Core subjects include English Language, Elementary Mathematics, Additional Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, History, Geography, and Social Studies. Elective options extend to Higher Mother Tongue Languages, Art, Design and Technology, and Principles of Accounts. Subject-Based Banding enables students to study specific subjects at higher or lower levels according to their aptitude.
In its 2024 O-Level results, the school reported strong outcomes across multiple disciplines. The overall pass rate was above 97 percent. Pure Science subjects such as Chemistry, Biology, and Physics achieved a 100 percent pass rate, while Elementary and Additional Mathematics saw distinction rates of approximately 56 to 58 percent. Among the Secondary 5 Normal (Academic) cohort, over 84 percent progressed to post-secondary education, including polytechnics and junior colleges.
The STEM-focused ALP supplements classroom learning with practical sustainability projects, and bilingual programmes help prepare students for a globalised environment. Students preparing for the O-Level Mathematics papers may benefit from structured external support. DeepThink, a math tuition centre, offers programmes aligned to the O-Level Elementary and Additional Mathematics syllabuses that can help reinforce concepts covered in school.
Key Academic Highlights (2024):
- O-Level Overall Pass Rate: Above 97%
- Mathematics Distinctions: 56-58% in E-Math and A-Math
- Science Subjects Pass Rate: 100% in Pure Chemistry, Biology, and Physics
- Post-Secondary Progression: 84% for Secondary 5N cohort
Facilities and Co-Curricular Activities
The campus includes a Science Hub with dedicated Biology and Physics laboratories, smart classrooms with interactive technology, a library and media resource centre, and food laboratories for Home Economics. Sporting facilities comprise a multi-purpose hall with four badminton courts, a full-sized field, and a gymnasium.
Unity offers more than 20 Co-Curricular Activities (CCAs) across four categories:
Physical Sports: Basketball, Football, Track and Field, Table Tennis, and Volleyball develop teamwork and physical fitness.
Uniformed Groups: The Boys' Brigade, Girls' Brigade, National Police Cadet Corps (NPCC), Scouts, and National Cadet Corps (Air) build discipline and leadership.
Visual and Performing Arts: Choir, Indian Orchestra, Modern Dance, Concert Band, Speech and Drama, and Art and Crafts provide creative outlets.
Clubs and Societies: Environmental Science, Infocomm Technology (Media Production), and Audio Visual Aid clubs connect to the school's ALP and LLP programmes.
CCA participation is an integral part of student development at Unity and also serves as the basis for DSA applications in sporting categories.
Student Life and School Culture
Unity Secondary School places a strong emphasis on pastoral care and student well-being. Class sizes typically range from 35 to 40 students, with a teacher-to-student ratio of approximately 1:25. The school provides counselling services, resilience workshops, and peer mentoring programmes as part of its student support framework. Anti-bullying policies are implemented in line with MOE guidelines.
The school actively promotes inclusivity through diverse cultural celebrations and dedicated special educational needs support officers. Staff members are noted for prioritising both academic progress and the mental health of their students.
For students transitioning from primary school, the adjustment to secondary school routines can be significant. Establishing consistent study habits, joining a CCA early to build social connections, and maintaining open communication with form teachers are practical steps that can help ease the transition. The school also received the 2025 People's Association Spirit Awards (Merit) for its community engagement efforts.

Frequently asked questions
Clear answers for parents
Which Math class suits a Unity Secondary School student?
We teach Mathematics at G1, G2 or G3. We use the student's current Mathematics course, year and schoolwork to choose a class. Students learn with others studying the same course at a suitable pace.
Does the posting group determine my child's Mathematics class?
It indicates the usual starting subject level, but Full Subject-Based Banding allows students to take subjects at different levels. Tell us the Mathematics level shown on your child's timetable or assessments so lessons match what they actually study.
When should a secondary student start tuition?
Start when schoolwork reveals gaps in understanding or confidence. Earlier support can strengthen algebra and problem-solving foundations; students joining later can focus on their current topics and assessments.
What makes DeepThink different for Unity Secondary School students?
Small classes, teaching matched to the student's actual Mathematics course, and practice that develops clear working as well as correct answers. Parents are kept informed about progress and areas needing more practice.
How many students are in each class?
Four, at most. Students are grouped by learning pace, not just by year level, so each lesson moves at the speed of the students actually in it. When no class matches a child’s pace, we open a new one. In a class that size, every child answers questions, gets their working checked, and gets help the moment they need it.
Can families start with a trial class first?
Yes. A trial class helps you see whether our teaching pace and approach suit your child. Trials in existing classes are free. If no class suits your timing, we can arrange a 1-to-1 trial at another time for $30.
