After primary school, students move on to secondary education, which is divided into Special, Express, Normal (Academic), or Normal (Technical) streams based on their performance in the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE). Secondary education lasts for 4 to 5 years, leading to the GCE 'O' Level examinations. Following secondary school, students can choose to attend either junior colleges for 2 years, leading to the GCE 'A' Level examinations, or polytechnics and the Institute of Technical Education (ITE) for vocational education.

Singapore's healthcare system is renowned for its high quality and efficiency, often being ranked among the best in the world. The system is a mix of public and private healthcare services, with the government playing a significant role in the nation's health infrastructure. Public healthcare is subsidized by the government and is available to all citizens and permanent residents, providing them with affordable and accessible services. Private healthcare in Singapore offers more personalized care and shorter waiting times, but at a higher cost. The quality of both public and private healthcare in Singapore is generally excellent, with state-of-the-art medical facilities and highly trained professionals. The cost of public healthcare is heavily subsidized and thus more affordable than private healthcare, which can be expensive. Expats and digital nomads can access public healthcare once they have established residency and have the appropriate health insurance coverage. They can also opt for private healthcare services, which may be more familiar to those from Western countries.
