由来

1985 年，新加坡第一任副总理吴作栋提出让学校享有更多自主权，也让校长在聘请教职人员、计划学校课程和选用课本方面有更大的权力。
1988 年三所政府辅助中学——英华中学（Anglo-Chinese School）、华侨中学（The Chinese High School, now Hwa Chong Institution）和圣若瑟书院（St Joseph’s Institution）成功申请为自主学校。
1990 年，莱佛士书院（Raffles Institution）成为第一所成功申请为自主学校的政府学校。
自主学校可自行制定学费数额。由于相较政府或政府辅助学校，自主学校的学费较高，因此政府也推出了一项经济援助计划（Financial Assistance Scheme），让来自低收入家庭的学生也能有机会就读自主学校。
2004 年，教育部推出了直通车课程（Integrated Programme），让成绩优异的学生无需参加 O 水准考试，直接参与六年的中学与初级学院课程，最终获取 A 水准考试证书或专科文凭。有六所自主学校推出了直通车课程。

ETYMOLOGY

In 1985, Singapore’s first Deputy Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong proposed to let schools have more autonomy, and let principals have greater authority in the hiring of teachers, planning of school curriculum and choosing of textbooks.
In 1988, 3 government-assisted schools—Anglo-Chinese School, The Chinese High School (now Hwa Chong Institution) and St. Joseph's Institution successfully applied to become independent schools.
In 1990, Raffles Institution became the first government school to successfully apply to become an independent school.
Independent schools can set their own school fees. Since the school fees of independent schools are higher than those of government or government-assisted schools, the government has also introduced a Financial Assistance Scheme to provide students from low-income families the opportunity to attend independent schools.
In 2004, the Ministry of Education launched the Integrated Programme, which allows outstanding students to participate in the six-year secondary and junior college courses without having to take the GCE O-Level examinations, and ultimately obtain a GCE A-level examination certificate or a specialist diploma. Six independent schools have launched the Integrated Programme in their syllabus.
