Prepare Your Child's
AEIS Journey
With KLC
Securing a spot in a Singapore mainstream school requires strategic planning. KLC Language Centre provides the complete Cambridge English certification pathway — preparation and official exam — right here in Johor Bahru.
Understanding the Process
What is the AEIS and S-AEIS?
(And Why English Matters First)
The Admissions Exercise for International Students (AEIS) and Supplementary AEIS (S-AEIS) are centralised admission processes by the Singapore Ministry of Education (MOE) for international students seeking enrolment into mainstream primary and secondary schools.
Eligible grades: Primary 2–5 & Secondary 1–3
Eligible grades: Primary 2–4 & Secondary 1–2
Your child must first achieve a specific passing score in the Cambridge English Qualifications (CEQ). This step is non-negotiable and must be completed before anything else.
Only after submitting a successful CEQ score can a student register for the MOE's AEIS or S-AEIS Mathematics test in Singapore.
MOE Requirements
Accepted Cambridge English (CEQ)
Levels by Age
Your child must take the correct CEQ test based on their age as of 1 January in the year of admission, and achieve the MOE's minimum required score.
| Age Group | School Level | Required Cambridge Exam | MOE Minimum Score Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ages 7 – 9 | Primary 2 & 3 Candidates | A2 Key for Schools (KET) | 100 – 130 |
