      Or kid did not get the third language of his choice due to demand exceeding supply.


      Kid did not get offered third language.

      Could someone explain how this situation would be possible?

      Its not possible. The offer would be on the result slip.

      What is possible is the kid did not take it up, or selected course ran out of places.

        Hmm, the course running out of places sounds possible. How do they decide who gets to take the third language?

          (Jap need higher chinese pass, i think)

          Top 30% - Regional Languages

            Yes, and also based on demand and supply for Japanese, German and French.

                Not sure what the deciding factor is for allocating 3rd lang in high demand. Just know that some students who opted for popular 3rd lang didn’t get their choice. Maybe language abilities play a bigger deciding factor than overall T-score.

                  I think the Regional Languages (Malay (Special Programme), Chinese (Special Programme), Bahasa Indonesia and Arabic) are offered to all S1 students in the Express and NA stream.

                    From MOE website :

                    Eligible top 10% pupils can apply for French/ German/ Japanese online upon the release of their PSLE results. Pupils opting for Japanese Language are required to have passed Higher Chinese/ Chinese at the PSLE as the standard written form of Japanese uses Kanji (Chinese characters). In the event that the number of applicants exceeds that of vacancies, selection will be based on their PSLE results. To be eligible for the Foreign Language Programme, the applicant OR his father OR his mother must be a Singapore Citizen or Singapore Permanent Resident.
