部分考生可报读工院
教育部在公文告发表说，考生可在当日17日下午2时起回校领取成绩单，有意报读工艺教育学院课程的学生，可向学校索取申请表格。新加坡考试与评鉴局将邮寄成绩单给私人考生。因为N水准会考成绩将在下星期一（2012年12月17日）放榜。配合教育部从明年起为普通源流学生拓展更多元的升学管道，今年部分考生在领取成绩单时，将获得申请“理工学院基础课程”和“理工学院直接入学计划”的邀请。与此同时，有资格加入工院基础课程（Polytechnic Foundation Programme，简称PFP）或工院直接入学计划（Direct-Entry-Scheme to Polytechnic Programme，简称DPP）的学生，也将分别获得P表格或N表格。
P或N表格附有个人密码（PIN），学生必须使用密码上网提交申请表格。PFP的申请截止日期是本月19日（星期三）下午4时，而DPP的申请截止日期则在20日下午5时。
PFP和DPP的录取结果将在12月24日（星期一）早上9时公布，如果学生提供手机资料，将通过手机简讯获得通知。学生也可以上网查阅录取详情。但是，学生必须在本月12月26日（星期三）下午4时之前上网回应录取通知。若他们选择不加入PFP或DPP，他们得在明年1月3日回到中学，开始中五课程。另外，若获得PFP和DPP双重录取，学生只能选择其一。

About the PFP/DPP
13.At the 2010 National Day Rally, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced that the Ministry of Education (MOE) will be creating more progression pathways for secondary school students from 2013. These included the PFP and DPP, which provide students with additional progression pathways in the areas of applied learning.
14.The PFP is a one-year programme that offers a practice-oriented curriculum taught by polytechnic lecturers, to better prepare polytechnic-bound N(A) students for entry into the relevant Polytechnic Diploma course. The PFP takes into account the strong demand for a polytechnic education, and is an alternative to the Secondary 5 year as GCE ‘N’ level graduates under the PFP will not sit for the ‘O’ levels.
15.The DPP is another option for students who have performed well in the ‘N’ Levels and would like to benefit from more hands-on preparation at the ITE. The programme takes into account the consistent good performance of Higher Nitec graduates and their aspirations for a polytechnic education. Students can take up a Higher Nitec programme at the ITE and subsequently be assured of either a first- or second-year place in a related polytechnic course, provided they achieve the qualifying GPA scores in the Higher Nitec programme. This option builds on the ITE Direct Entry Scheme (DES) which was introduced in 2008 as a pathway for students who do well in their ‘N’ Levels to progress to ITE, instead of taking their ‘O’ Levels in Secondary 5.
