Odyssey Math Tuition Releases Complimentary Singapore Parent's Guide to FSBB, PSLE AL Grading, and the SEC Exam — and Expands Online Math Tuition with Standalone E-Learning Courses

Jun 3, 2026

Odyssey Math Tuition, a math tuition centre in Eunos, Singapore, has released a complimentary parent's guide to FSBB, PSLE AL grading, and the SEC examination, and expanded its online math tuition through standalone e-learning courses for Secondary 1 to JC levels.

Singapore, June 3, 2026 -- SINGAPOREOdyssey Math Tuition, a provider of math tuition in Singapore located in Eunos, has released a complimentary parent's guide to Singapore's math education system and expanded its online math tuition through standalone e-learning courses.

The new resource, A Parent's Guide to Singapore's Math Education System, is now available at no cost on the tuition centre's website. The guide documents three areas of Singapore's restructured secondary education system: the Ministry of Education's Full Subject-Based Banding (FSBB), which replaced the Express, Normal (Academic), and Normal (Technical) streams with G1, G2, and G3 subject levels; the Singapore-Cambridge Secondary Education Certificate (SEC), which replaces the GCE O-Level and N-Level with a first examination cohort in 2027; and the PSLE Achievement Level system, which reports primary results in bands from AL1 to AL8. The guide also sets out how a student's secondary mathematics level relates to Additional Mathematics and, subsequently, to H2 math tuition at the junior college level.

Alongside the guide, Odyssey Math Tuition has made its online math e-learning courses available as a standalone option covering Secondary 1 through Junior College H2 Mathematics. The courses include video lessons mapped to the MOE syllabus, practice sets, and an AI math tutor that answers student questions outside class hours. They can be accessed without enrolment in weekly onsite classes.

The centre operates from 160 Changi Road in Eunos, in eastern Singapore. Its location places it within reach of families seeking math tuition in Eunos and the neighbouring areas of Bedok, Kembangan, Paya Lebar, and Geylang, all served by the East-West MRT line. The onsite small-group classes and the online courses both follow the same teaching approach, and the centre serves students across primary, secondary, and junior college levels from this single location.



Odyssey Math Tuition was founded in 2013 by Justin Tan, a National University of Singapore Mathematics graduate with Distinction. The centre provides primary school math tuition, secondary school math tuition spanning Elementary Mathematics and Additional Mathematics, and junior college H1 and H2 Mathematics tuition, alongside its standalone online learning courses. Students enrol from Primary 3 through Junior College 2.

The guide additionally documents the Sec 1 Posting Group system that replaced secondary school streaming, the mapping between the former Express, Normal (Academic), and Normal (Technical) standards and the new G3, G2, and G1 subject levels, and the timeline for the SEC examination, whose first cohort sits the papers in 2027 with results in January 2028. It notes the relationship between Additional Mathematics at the secondary level and H2 Mathematics at junior college, the latter being a common requirement for university courses in engineering, computing, the sciences, and economics. These sections are presented as a factual reference for parents tracking the changes to Singapore's secondary and pre-university mathematics pathways.

The complimentary guide and full details of the online math e-learning courses are available on the Odyssey Math Tuition website. Complimentary trial classes are offered to new students, and enquiries can be made through the centre's website or by WhatsApp.

Inside the Singapore Parent's Guide to Singapore's Math Education System

The guide is a structured reference covering the restructuring of Singapore's secondary education and the role mathematics plays within it. Authored by Justin Tan, founder of the math tuition centre Odyssey Math Tuition, it runs across nine sections and documents the system as it stands for the 2026 academic year.

It opens by explaining why streaming was retired: the Express, Normal (Academic), and Normal (Technical) streams were replaced by Full Subject-Based Banding (FSBB), under which students take each subject at one of three levels — G1, G2, or G3 — mapped from the former Normal (Technical), Normal (Academic), and Express standards. A dedicated section examines what these levels mean for mathematics specifically, since the mathematics level a student takes determines later access to Additional Mathematics and to H2 Mathematics at junior college.

The guide then sets out the Singapore-Cambridge Secondary Education Certificate (SEC), the unified leaving examination that replaces the GCE O-Level and N-Level from the 2027 cohort, including its grading scales and the bodies that co-certify it. A further section explains PSLE Achievement Level grading, the AL1-to-AL8 bands, and how PSLE totals map to secondary Posting Groups. The guide includes a table linking each PSLE Mathematics AL to the mathematics level a student is initially offered.

Two later sections trace how mathematics performance gates the pathway from Primary 6 through to A-Level, and outline what is relevant at each stage from Primary 1 to Junior College 2. An extensive FAQ answers common questions on FSBB, the SEC, PSLE scoring, and subject eligibility.

The reference reflects the math tuition centre's stated aim of helping families understand the changes accurately. It is maintained as a math tuition resource and reviewed regularly to reflect current MOE policy.

Kelana Jaya LRT route disruption: Rapid Rail restoring service

KUALA LUMPUR: Repair works are being carried out following a service disruption on the Kelana Jaya LRT Line, involving the track between Wangsa Maju and Sri Rampai Stations, which was caused by an unusual flow of rainwater that damaged several track components, said Rapid Rail Sdn Bhd (Rapid Rail). Rapid Rail as the operator of the Rapid KL rail service in a statement said that the incident occurred at 10.20 am which forced the operation to stop the power supply in the area involved to allow inspection and repair work to be carried out. “Repair works are being actively carried out by Rapid Rail’s technical team to ensure that services can be restored soon,“ according to the statement. For now, a feeder service has been activated between Gombak Station and Wangsa Maju Station. Trains from the direction of Putra Heights will turn back at Wangsa Maju Station. A total of 12 free feeder buses at a frequency of every 15 minutes are operating to ensure that passengers can continue their journey. “We hope that this repair work can be completed before the evening peak hour,“ said Rapid Rail. In addition, operation staff and auxiliary police personnel have been stationed at the stations involved to help facilitate the movement of affected passengers. Continuous announcements on the development of service status will be delivered through Rapid KL’s social media, at all stations, and on trains. Rapid Rail also informed that the latest development of service status will be announced at 3 pm. “Passengers are advised to plan their journeys and refer to Rapid KL’s social media to get the latest information on the service status of the Kelana Jaya LRT Line,“ said the statement. For more information, the public can contact Rapid Rail’s communications officer, Noor Natasha Mohd Irwan at 013-332 2900.

12,519 cases under Weights and Measures Act recorded as of September - KPDN

SHAH ALAM: A total of 12,519 cases involving offences under the Weights and Measures Act (ATS) 1972 were recorded by the enforcement division of the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN) nationwide from 2020 to September this year. KPDN deputy-director of Enforcement (Prevention) Aris Mamat said the statistics reflected the ministry’s ongoing and proactive efforts to ensure that traders adhered to the integrity of weights and measures in buying and selling for the benefit of consumers. “KPDN is committed to protecting consumers and consistently ensuring that traders adhere to established standards. Those found to have committed irregularities or non-compliance will not evade strict enforcement actions. “A violation of the provisions under the ATS 1972 could result in a maximum fine of RM40,000, imprisonment for up to three years, or both, and the court may also order the forfeiture of the weighing instrument,” he said today. He said this after heading a team of 20 KPDN enforcement officers to perform spot checks at three petrol stations around Kuala Selangor to ensure that the fuel charged to consumers matched the amount supplied through pump dispensers. Elaborating, Aris said that the ATS 1972 enforcement compliance inspections at petrol stations led to actions against the misuse of subsidised diesel fuel under Ops Tiris, resulting in the seizure of diesel valued at approximately RM16.5 million from January to September this year. “This brings the total amount of diesel seized from 2020 to 2024 to RM52.68 million,” he said. Commenting on today’s operation, Aris said that it focused on several key aspects, including the accuracy of oil pumps and meters, testing the volume of fuel dispensed, and reviewing the maintenance records of weighing and measuring equipment. He added that checks revealed all the petrol stations involved complied with the weighing and measuring regulations set. “Regarding the enforcement actions under the ATS 1972 in Selangor, we recorded a total of 283 cases from January to September last year, with confiscated items amounting to RM2.6 million,” he said.

Skills-related underemployment shows declining trend

Skills-related underemployment shows declining trend

KUALA LUMPUR: The skills-related underemployment (SRU) rate has continued to fall in line with improvements in the country’s education level, said Deputy Economy Minister Datuk Hanifah Hajar Taib. SRU is defined as tertiary-educated individuals working in semi-skilled and low-skilled jobs. Hanifah said the SRU rate stood at 37% in the second quarter of 2024, in line with high-income nations such as South Korea (38%), Australia (32%), the United Kingdom (28%), and the United States (30%). “The underemployment rate of STPM holders is 55.8%, while for degree holders, the rate is lower at 26.9%,” she said during the question-and-answer session in the Dewan Rakyat today. She was responding to a supplementary question from Datuk Mohd Shahar Abdullah (BN-Paya Besar) on the government’s efforts to address the mismatch between labour supply and demand, particularly among graduates with a cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of 3.5 and above who qualify for jobs in high-growth sectors. Hanifah explained that the government is actively trying to boost investments in key sectors to create more high-skilled jobs, with initiatives such as the KL20 Action Plan, the National Energy Transition Roadmap, and the New Industrial Master Plan 2030. “These measures will ensure that the country’s economy does not only rely on (just providing) low tax rates but also can meet the demand for high-quality jobs,” she said. Hanifah also emphasised the government’s commitment to developing a comprehensive ecosystem that encourages skilled workers abroad to return home, such as from Singapore where the cost of living is rising. “If the cost of living in Singapore becomes too high, skilled workers might consider returning to Malaysia, where the job ecosystem and quality of life better suit their needs,“ she noted. She added that the government is ready to strengthen upskilling and reskilling initiatives to ensure the workforce meets the needs of high-value and high-growth industries.

National Strategic Plan addresses child malnutrition with comprehensive approach

KUALA LUMPUR: KUALA LUMPUR: The 2022-2030 National Strategic Plan to Combat the Double Burden of Malnutrition Among Children in Malaysia will ensure a more comprehensive approach to addressing issues such as stunting and obesity, said Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad. He expressed hope that the plan would expedite efforts to tackle child malnutrition in order to build a healthy nation and nurture healthy Malaysians from a young age. Dzulkefly said the plan, encompassing five core strategies and 31 initiatives, took into account the functions and policies of all ministries and agencies while emphasising the involvement of various parties and the strengthening of existing strategies through cross-cutting approaches. “The plan prioritises strengthening the governance of nutritional well-being through legislation, political commitment, and stakeholder involvement, while also improving the quality and accessibility of nutritional services and creating a more conducive society. “Efforts to strengthen capacity development and human capital for the well-being of children’s nutrition, along with the synergy of child nutrition advocacy, are also emphasised,” he said during the oral question and answer session at Dewan Rakyat today. Dzulkefly said this in response to a question from Datuk Dr Alias Razak (PN-Kuala Nerus) regarding the ministry’s plan to create a master document, such as the Child Nutrition Action Plan, to address the issue of child nutrition. He said the plan aimed to have a specific impact on children, teenagers, women of reproductive age, and vulnerable groups, designed to mobilise energy effectively among all stakeholders in the implementation of strategies, programmes, and outlined activities. “One of the efforts being strengthened is the initiative to support the first 1,000 days of a child’s life, beginning with the first day of pregnancy and lasting until the child is two years old,” he said. Dzulkefly said among the activities conducted were engagement and advocacy sessions for private pharmacies and health clinics to facilitate early screenings. He said that this included conducting blood haemoglobin tests for women and pregnant mothers to reduce the risk of pregnancy complications, enabling them to plan for a healthy pregnancy.
