Subjective question - esp since Singapore has moved towards not publishing results of schools, in an attempt to make it a more equal society. However, if we look at historical data, you can grade schools based on the PSLE scores produced by the kids for primary school as well as the number of awards the school has gotten. I reckon the 5 best primary schools in Singapore are 1. Raffles Girls - 8 awards. PSLE Top score for 2013 was 275 2. St. Hilda’s Primary School - 8 awards. PSLE Top score for 2013 was 274 3. Catholic High School - 8 awards. PSLE Top score for 2013 was 272 4. Rulang Primary - 8 awards. PSLE Top score for 2013 was 268 5. Pasir Ris Primary school - 8 awards. PSLE Top score for 2013 was 268 For preschool, I guess I would rank it according to the waiting line for entry? So that would definitely be Nanyang Kindergarten. The waiting list can be over 700 kids in que! It's not unusual for parents to register their babies 3-4 years in advance for a spot. Prime Minister Lee Hsien Long and celebs like Jim Rogers, sent their kids to Nanyang. Other top preschools in Singapore include St James Church Kindergarten, Barker Road Methodist Church Kindergarten, and Maris Stella Kindergarten. I believe the most expensive preschool is Eton House though. :)
