About Meridian Primary School
Founded: 2000
How DeepThink supports Meridian Primary School students
Lessons follow the MOE Primary Math syllabus exactly — the same topics, heuristics, and model-drawing methods your child uses at Meridian Primary School
Small group classes so your child can ask questions, get feedback, and is never lost in the crowd
From P5 onwards, every class is structured around PSLE technique — not just content, but how to show working clearly and pick up method marks
Parents are kept in the loop on what was covered and where their child needs more practice — so you're never in the dark between sessions
The programme
What your child gets at DeepThink
Each weekly session builds directly on the last. Your child works through new concepts, revisits gaps, and practises exam-style questions — in a group small enough that the teacher actually knows them.

Frequently asked questions
Clear answers for parents
Does DeepThink follow the same syllabus my child is on at Meridian Primary School?
Yes. All Singapore primary schools follow the MOE Primary Math syllabus, and our P1–P6 classes are built around that curriculum — the same topics, the same model-drawing and heuristics approach, and the same exam format your child sits at Meridian Primary School.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Parents are kept informed on what was covered and where their child should focus. We also flag any persistent gaps as soon as we spot them — not just before exams.
When should my child start tuition?
There's no single right answer, but earlier is generally better. Gaps in foundational topics like fractions and ratios compound as children move through primary school. A free trial class is a good way to find out where your child actually stands.
What makes DeepThink different from other math tuition centres?
Small group classes, parents kept in the loop on progress, and a curriculum focused on the exact skills MOE examiners test — including how to structure solutions, not just whether the answer is correct.
School Overview
Meridian Primary School opened in 2000 as the seventh primary school in the western part of Pasir Ris New Town, welcoming an initial cohort of 180 students. The school was officially opened in 2002 by then-Senior Minister Teo Chee Hean. It operates as a government co-educational single-session school under school code 1764, and follows the Ministry of Education (MOE) curriculum framework.
The school's vision centres on building a community of learners, leaders, and innovators, guided by the belief that every child can learn and succeed. Meridian Primary offers mother tongue instruction in Chinese, Malay, and Tamil alongside English, supporting bilingual development across its student body.
Meridian Primary's Applied Learning Programme (ALP) focuses on Eco-Environmental Studies, an interdisciplinary programme that engages students in sustainability-related projects. The school also runs a Learning for Life Programme (LLP) in Values-Based Student Leadership, which integrates character development into the broader school experience.
Admission Process
Admission to Primary 1 at Meridian Primary School follows the MOE Primary 1 Registration Exercise. Registration takes place in phases: Phase 1 is for children with siblings already enrolled in the school, Phase 2A covers children of alumni and school staff, Phase 2B is for children of parent volunteers and those with community or church connections, and Phase 2C is open to all remaining Singapore citizens and permanent residents.
Applications are submitted online through the MOE portal during the designated registration window. If the number of applications in any phase exceeds available places, balloting is conducted. For Phase 2C, priority is given based on home-to-school distance, with places allocated by ballot where necessary.
No tuition fees are charged for Singapore citizens attending government primary schools. Monthly miscellaneous fees of approximately S$13 to S$15 apply. Fee schedules for permanent residents and international students are published on the MOE website.
Curriculum and Academic Programme
Meridian Primary delivers the standard MOE primary curriculum, covering English, Mathematics, Science, Mother Tongue Languages, Art, Music, Physical Education, and Social Studies. Students may take foundation or standard-level courses depending on their abilities, and higher mother tongue options (Higher Chinese, Higher Malay, Higher Tamil) are available for eligible students.
The school runs a Math Olympiad Enrichment Programme for students in Primary 3 through Primary 6, which introduces advanced problem-solving techniques using inquiry-based approaches. Students from Meridian Primary have performed well in external mathematics competitions. At the 2024 Hwa Chong Institution Primary Mathematics World Tournament, Primary 6 students Liao Qi Rui and Feng You Cheng received silver medals, while Bawar Aron earned a silver at the Raffles Institution Primary Mathematics World Tournament. In 2025, Meridian teams achieved top results at the International Singapore Maths Competition. The school also participates in the National Mathematical Olympiad of Singapore (NMOS) and organises its own internal Meridian Mathematical Olympiad (MMO).
Science enrichment is supported through the E2K Science Programme, which develops higher-order thinking in selected students. The ALP in Eco-Environmental Studies provides hands-on, interdisciplinary learning tied to real-world sustainability topics.
Families seeking additional support in mathematics outside school hours may consider DeepThink, a math tuition centre that offers structured programmes for primary-level students.
