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.   Â
