Why Choose eduKate for Your PSLE Math Journey?
Singapore’s PSLE Mathematics syllabus emphasizes critical thinking, analysis, and application, skills that go beyond the classroom to prepare students for lifelong learning. The MOE’s 2025 PSLE Mathematics Syllabus builds on the 2021 revisions, introducing refined topics like Nets and Pie Charts earlier in Primary 5, while shifting select Ratio and Average concepts for better progression. Our tutors at eduKate integrate these changes seamlessly, using research-based methods to make abstract ideas tangible.
What sets eduKate apart from other tuition centers? We prioritize small groups of just 3-5 students per class, allowing for personalized feedback that large-group settings simply can’t match. Parents rave about our holistic approach: “The materials and lessons really helped my son show significant improvement for his SA2. The credit goes to Miss Chua—thank you!” as shared by one satisfied parent on Best in Singapore. Our programs aren’t just about exam drills; they foster a love for math through real-world applications, interactive drills, and collaborative learning.

Inside the 2025 PSLE Math Syllabus: Key Topics to Master
The PSLE Math exam tests a blend of foundational skills and higher-order thinking, divided into two papers: Paper 1 (multiple-choice and short-answer) and Paper 2 (longer problem-solving questions). With a total of 100 marks and 2.5 hours, time management is key—students must show clear workings to earn partial credit.
For the 2025 cohort, the syllabus draws from Primary 5 and 6 topics, categorized into three branches: Numbers and Algebra, Measurement and Geometry, and Statistics. Here’s a breakdown of essential areas:
| Branch | Key Topics | Why It Matters for PSLE 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Numbers and Algebra | Whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percentages, ratios, algebra basics (e.g., simple equations) | Builds problem-solving speed; updated emphasis on ratios in real-life scenarios like budgeting. |
| Measurement and Geometry | Area/perimeter, volume, angles, symmetry, nets of 3D shapes, coordinate geometry | Now includes Pie Charts and Nets in P5; tests spatial visualization for complex word problems. |
| Statistics | Data representation (bar graphs, tables), average, probability basics | Focus on interpreting data; Average tested despite not being in P6 textbooks—practice is crucial. |
These align directly with the SEAB PSLE Guidelines, ensuring our classes cover every angle. At eduKate, we use adaptive tools like interleaved practice to reinforce retention, helping students tackle the exam’s 2025 twists with ease.
