释义

名词

新加坡一年一度的统一考试之一，由新加坡考评局、教育部及剑桥大学国际考评部联合主办，为新加坡高中文凭。简称“A水准”。

DEFINITION

Noun

An annual national examination for a pre-university certificate, jointly organised by the Singapore Examinations and Assessment Board (SEAB), Ministry of Education (MOE) and Cambridge Assessment International Education in Singapore. Abbreviated as “A水准” in Mandarin.

由来
  • 1975年，新加坡教育部推行了A水准考试，统一取代了当时的高中文凭，并由教育部与剑桥大学国际考评部 (Cambridge Assessment International Education) 主办。除了母语考试，其他科目都由剑桥大学国际考评部监管。
  • A水准的考生包含在校学生和私人考生。学生可以用A水准的成绩申请进入大学。
  • 教育部为了取得更大的自由和监管，决定不再受英国A水准考试的限制。在2002年，教育部成立了专属于新加坡的独立A水准考试制度，考试的范围和新加坡教育制度基本一致。
  • 2007年，新课程的第一批考生步入考场。改革后，A水准科目分为H1、H2及H3三个等级 (不是所有科目都有三级)。一般上，H1内容为H2的一半但难度相等; H3内容则是H2科目的延伸，除此之外，学生还可参与科研报告并修读大学单元。
  • 新课程规定A水准在校学生需选修至少三个H2和一个H1科目，其中一个科目必须是其他三个科目的对比科目 (contrasting subject)。必修课为H1英文理解与写作 (General Paper)、H1专题作业 (Project Work) 及母语。
ETYMOLOGY
  • The A-Level examination was introduced by MOE in 1975, in replacement of the existing pre-university certification, and was organised by MOE and Cambridge Assessment International Education. All subjects, apart from Mother Tongue, fall under the purview of Cambridge Assessment International Education.
  • The A-Level examination is offered to students enrolled in schools as well as private candidates. A-Level results can be used to apply for university.
  • In order to have greater autonomy and control over the examination, MOE decided to delink the A-Level examinations from the United Kingdom’s GCE A-Level examination. In 2002, MOE established an independent A-Level examination system for Singapore, which was closely aligned with the Singapore school curriculum.
  • The first batch of candidates sat for the revamped A-Level examination in 2007. The new examination is divided into three levels: H1, H2 and H3 (H3 only available for some subjects). In general, the content of H1 subjects is half that of H2 subjects but of the same level of difficulty, while the content of H3 subjects builds on the corresponding H2 subject. Additionally, students taking their A-Levels can also participate in research and take university modules.
  • The new curriculum stipulates that A-Level students must take at least three H2 subjects and one H1 subject. They must also take H1 General Paper (GP), H1 Project Work and Mother Tongue, as well as a contrasting subject. 
例句

参加去年A水准会考的考生及格率达93.4%，比前年略高0.1个百分点，是新A水准课程自2006年推出以来的最佳表现。(《联合早报》，21/2/2020)
