Primary Schools
Schooling in government and aided primary schools is free. About 10 per cent of parents prefer to send their children to private primary schools. Admission to Primary 1 aided and government schools is through a centralised system, established to eliminate pressure on children caused by intense competition for entry to popular schools. In September, 442 000 children were enrolled in 721 government and aided primary schools.

Many primary schools operate bi-sessionally but the Government aims to implement whole-day primary schooling progressively. Schools are encouraged to convert to whole-day operation where feasible. Since 1993, all new primary schools are operated on a whole-day basis. The Government's interim target is to enable 60 per cent of places in government and aided primary schools to be operated on whole-day basis in the 2002-03 school year. The Government plans to build about 70 schools between 1999 and 2002. The longer term aim is for virtually all primary school students to enjoy whole-day schooling from the start of the 2007-08 school year. In pursuing this aim, the Government recognises constraints such as the availability of sufficient school sites in individual districts and possible shifts in population growth and distribution.
The Government regularly updates and improves the design for primary schools. In parallel, works to improve facilities in existing schools have been carried out under the School Improvement Programme since 1994. By the end of 1999, 165 schools had received additional facilities under this programme.
