This edited book is a comprehensive resource for understanding the history as well as the current status of educational practices in Singapore. It is a one-stop reference guide to education and educational issues/concerns here. There are three sections: Part 1 provides a sectorial overview of how education has been organized in this country such as preschool, special needs, primary and secondary, and adult education divisions. In Part 2, contributors critically delve into issues and policies that are pertinent to understanding education here such as underachievement, leadership, language education, assessment, and meritocracy to question what Part 1 might have taken for granted. Part 3 contains the largest number of contributors because it offers a scholarly examination into specific subject histories. This section stands out because of the comparative rarity of its subject matter (history of Physical Education, Art, Music, Geography Education, etc.) in Singapore.       

Yew-Jin Lee is Associate Professor at National Institute of Education, Nanyang Technology University in Singapore. As a trained science educator, he has done extensive work on comparative curriculum research and science education in East Asia, especially at the elementary level of schooling. He has also been consulted by various international organizations such as the World Bank, the Asian Development Bank, and the Singapore Temasek Foundation for development projects around the world. In 2008, he received a Fulbright Academic Exchange award to study urban science education in New York with the City University of New York and he is currently part of the Science Expert Group planning for the OECD PISA 2025.
