Learners by stage

Which primary maths learner is this tuition for?

Primary maths learners arrive at three stages, and each stage asks for a different kind of lesson from P1 counting to P6 ratio and algebra.

Lower primary learners, P1 and P2

A P1 learner meets whole numbers to 100 and first picture graphs, and P2 stretches to numbers up to 1000 and a fraction of a whole. With no weighted assessments at these levels, lessons build counting habits and careful reading at a calm pace.

  • Counts on fingers for facts that should feel automatic
  • Mixes up the two steps in a take away then add story

P3 and P4 learners

From P3 the first weighted assessments arrive, at most one per subject per term. P3 brings equivalent fractions and area, P4 adds factors, decimals and nets, and P4 school results then set the P5 Standard or Foundation recommendation.

  • Finds equivalent fractions by guessing a denominator
  • Swaps the area and perimeter formulas under time pressure

P5 and P6 learners, Standard or Foundation

A P5 learner moves into percentage, rate and the area of a triangle, and P6 adds ratio, algebra, circles and average before the PSLE paper. Foundation learners revisit key P1 to P4 ideas while meeting new content drawn from the Standard list.

  • Takes the percentage of the whole when the question means the remainder
  • Leaves out the working steps that structured questions ask to be shown

Why Eduprime

Why learners choose Eduprime for primary maths

Primary maths tuition at Eduprime is built on the 2021 syllabus by year, with one tutor and one learner in every session.

Lessons mapped to the learner's exact year

Each lesson plan follows the 2021 syllabus topics for the learner's year, from P1 to P6.

Standard and Foundation taught as two paths

Upper primary lessons are pitched at the child's Standard or Foundation track, and Foundation work loops back to P1 to P4 ideas by design.

Written working trained for the PSLE paper

On a one-part 2-mark short answer the correct method earns 1 mark when the answer slips, and structured questions ask for working shown, so tutors train both habits.

Experienced, skilled tutors

Our primary maths tutors know bar models and heuristics from long practice, and our team picks for each child from a bench of 12,000+ tutors.

A different maths tutor on request

Swapping maths tutors costs the child nothing, however often the child or the registrant asks.

Notes after every session

After each maths lesson the tutor leaves a short note on the work covered, and every month a progress report goes to the adult who registered the child.

P1 to P6 topics

What does primary maths cover from P1 to P6?

Primary maths on the 2021 syllabus runs from numbers to 100 at P1 to ratio and algebra at P6, with one question per stage solved in full.

P1 and P2: numbers to 1000 and the first stories

P1 works with whole numbers up to 100 and addition and subtraction within 100, and P2 stretches to 1000 with a fraction of a whole. Sample question: a shelf holds 46 books. 18 books are taken away, then 25 books are put on. How many books are on the shelf now? Solution: 46 take away 18 leaves 28 books, and 28 add 25 gives 53. Answer: 53 books. Saying each action aloud keeps both steps in the working.

Whole numbers to 1000 · addition and subtraction within 100 · multiplication and division · fraction of a whole · length, mass, volume, time · picture graphs

P3: fractions that match and the first angles

P3 takes numbers up to 10 000 and brings the first equivalent fractions, angles and area. Sample question: rename 2/3 and 5/6 so they share a denominator, then say which is greater. Solution: 6 is a multiple of 3, so 6 is the common denominator. Multiplying the top and bottom of 2/3 by 2 gives 4/6, and 5/6 stays as it is. Answer: 4/6 and 5/6, so 5/6 is greater. Drawing both fractions on one strip shows why the bottom number matches first.

Numbers to 10 000 · equivalent fractions · area and perimeter · angles · perpendicular and parallel lines · bar graphs

P4: factors, decimals and the shapes behind area

P4 brings factors, decimals to three places, nets and pie charts in the year before banding. Sample question: a rectangle has a perimeter of 36 cm, and its length is twice its breadth. Find its area. Solution: half the perimeter, 18 cm, is one length plus one breadth, which is 2 units plus 1 unit. So 3 units make 18 cm and 1 unit is 6 cm. The breadth is 6 cm, the length is 12 cm, and the area is 12 times 6, or 72 square centimetres.

Numbers to 100 000 · factors and multiples · mixed numbers and improper fractions · decimals to 3 places · rectangle and square · nets and symmetry · line graphs and pie charts

P5 Standard: percentage, rate and triangles

P5 Standard reaches numbers up to 10 million and opens percentage, rate and the area of a triangle. Sample question: 800 learners attend a school, and 35% of them travel by bus. How many learners use another way to get to school? Solution: the other group makes up 100% minus 35%, which is 65%. 65% of 800 is 520. Answer: 520 learners. A check through the bus group gives the same: 35% of 800 is 280, and 800 minus 280 is 520.

Numbers to 10 million · fraction and division · four operations on fractions and decimals · percentage · rate · area of triangle · volume of cube and cuboid · angles in triangles and quadrilaterals

P6 Standard: ratio, algebra and circles

P6 Standard adds ratio with whole numbers, simple linear equations, circles and average. Sample question: find the area of a semicircle with a diameter of 14 cm, taking pi as 22/7. Solution: the radius is half of 14 cm, which is 7 cm. A full circle has area 22/7 times 7 times 7, which is 154 square centimetres, and half of that is 77. Answer: 77 square centimetres. Halving the diameter before squaring is the step to check.

Dividing fractions · percentage increase and decrease · ratio with whole numbers · algebra and simple linear equations · circles and composite figures · special quadrilaterals · average

P5 and P6 Foundation Mathematics

Foundation Mathematics revisits key P1 to P4 ideas and adds rate, percentage and average from the Standard list. Sample question: the average mass of 4 parcels is 2.5 kg. A fifth parcel is added, and the average becomes 2.8 kg. Find the mass of the fifth parcel. Solution: 4 parcels at 2.5 kg weigh 10 kg in total, and 5 parcels at 2.8 kg weigh 14 kg. Answer: the fifth parcel weighs 14 kg minus 10 kg, which is 4 kg.

Four operations · fractions and decimals · rate · percentage · area of triangle · volume of cube and cuboid · pie charts · average

Lesson formats

Home or online: where does primary maths tuition take place?

Primary maths tuition runs both ways: one tutor at the learner's home desk or online, chosen with one box on the registration form.

Home lessons in the learner's own town

A maths tutor travels to the learner's home, chosen for the learner's town and school timetable. A parent or guardian registers, consents to the home lessons and arranges who is at home with the young learner.

  • One-to-one, 60-minute sessions
  • Tutor matched by town and timetable
  • Maths worksheets and a lesson plan
  • Tutor notes after every session

Online lessons from home

Online maths lessons suit a learner at ease on a screen, picked on that same form.

  • One-to-one, 60-minute sessions
  • Tutor notes after every session
  • Same registration form, mode online
  • Monthly progress report

From form to first lesson

How does primary maths tuition start?

Primary maths tuition opens with one form, a talk with our team about the child's gaps, and a maths tutor near home or online.

  1. 1

    Register on the form

    A parent or guardian registers the primary learner, naming the year, the level where it applies and home or online lessons, and gives consent for the lessons.

  2. 2

    First consultation with our team

    Our team talks through recent weighted assessments, shaky topics and the school timetable. This first consultation is free and shapes the tutor brief.

  3. 3

    A maths tutor matched to town and timetable

    For home lessons, our team picks a maths tutor who reaches the learner's town and fits the school timetable; online lessons just fit that timetable.

  4. 4

    Starter package of 4 lessons

    The Starter gives the child four one-hour maths lessons, each built on a lesson plan and worksheets for that school year, with tutor notes after every session.

  5. 5

    Monthly report and the next package

    Each month a progress report measures the maths covered against the next weighted assessment, or, in P4, against the school examinations that inform the P5 recommendation. The next step is to continue with a new package or adjust the lesson plan with our team.

In their words

What primary maths learners say

Primary maths learners describe their lessons below; names follow a privacy style and these accounts are illustrative.

I used to count on my fingers for every take away sum. Now my number bonds to 20 come quickly.

Hana L.

P2 learner · Home lessons · Lower primary maths

My tutor made me draw every fraction on a strip. When the term test came, I got every fraction question right.

Wei Jie T.

P3 learner · Online lessons · P3 maths

Area and perimeter kept swapping in my head. Now I check my formula card before every question.

Arjun P.

P4 learner · Home lessons · P4 maths

Percentage questions about the rest of the group always caught me. Now I underline who is being counted first.

Siti R.

P5 learner, Standard Maths · Home lessons · P5 Standard maths

Ratio with a transfer used to scare me. Now I start every ratio question by finding what stays the same.

Ethan C.

Student journeys

Three primary maths journeys, one per stage

Primary maths progress looks different at P2, P4 and P6; these three illustrative journeys show what changed and how.

Challenge

Two-step story sums with numbers to 100 often ended with one step left out, and counting by ones took most of each worksheet.

  1. Number bonds to 20 recalled without fingers
  2. Took away tens first in mental subtraction
  3. Retold each story sum before writing a number

Two-step story sums now come with one short sentence per step, and worksheets finish with time to check.

A P2 learner · One school term

Challenge

Fractions, decimals and area questions with two unknowns lost marks on each weighted assessment in P4.

  1. Drew fraction strips for mixed numbers
  2. Used units to link length and breadth
  3. Checked perimeter answers by adding all sides

P4 results rose across the year, and the learner entered P5 with Standard Mathematics in the chosen combination.

A P4 learner · Two school terms

Challenge

Structured questions in Paper 2 were left with a bare answer, and ratio and percentage of a remainder caused repeated slips.

  1. Wrote out the working steps on each structured question
  2. Found the constant before each ratio diagram
  3. Practised written fraction work without a calculator

Working now shows clearly on long questions, as the paper asks, and the learner kept steadier stamina through both PSLE papers.

A P6 learner · P5 and P6

The 2021 syllabus

What the 2021 primary maths syllabus changes

The 2021 primary mathematics syllabus is the MOE syllabus that began with the 2021 Primary One cohort and covers P1 to P6 in three content strands. It reached P1 to P5 by 2025 and P6 from 2026, so learners in MOE primary schools now study it, with the document last updated in October 2025.

  • 01Three content strands: Number and Algebra, Measurement and Geometry, Statistics.
  • 02Mathematical Problem Solving sits at the centre of the MOE framework.
  • 03P1 to P4 content is common to every learner.
  • 04From P5, maths splits into a Standard track and a Foundation track.
  • 05Foundation revisits key P1 to P4 ideas and adds a subset of Standard.
  • 06Speed has left the P6 list and now begins in Sec 1.

P1 to Sec 1

How does P1 maths lead to a Sec 1 maths level?

Primary maths runs on one common path to P4, splits at P5 into Standard or Foundation, and ends in a Sec 1 maths level set partly by the maths AL.

  1. 1

    P1 to P4: one common syllabus

    Every learner covers the same P1 to P4 content, so lessons secure place value, fractions and diagram habits.

  2. 2

    End of P4: school results

    P4 school examination results lead the school to recommend a subject combination for P5. A parent or guardian then returns the option form with the preferred combination.

  3. 3

    P5: Standard or Foundation

    Within the five subject combinations a school can offer, which run from all four subjects at Standard to all four at Foundation, maths sits at one of the two levels. P5 school results are reported in ALs.

  4. 4

    P6: ratio, algebra and circles

    Standard learners meet ratio, algebra and circles; Foundation learners meet percentage, pie charts and average. P6 is on the 2021 syllabus from 2026.

  5. 5

    PSLE Mathematics

    The Standard paper 0008 or the Foundation paper 0038 gives the maths AL. Four subject ALs add up to the PSLE Score, from 4 to 32.

  6. 6

    Sec 1 maths level

    Any PSLE Score between 4 and 20 leads to Posting Group 3 at Sec 1. Learners placed in Posting Group 1 or 2 still reach G3 or G2 Maths with Standard Maths at AL5 or above.

Before P5 and P6

Four primary maths facts to check this year

Read the maths AL for its Sec 1 options

In its PSLE results release of 25 Nov 2025, MOE set out the subject-level rule for learners in Posting Group 1 or 2. Standard Maths at AL5 or above opens G3 or G2 Maths. Standard Maths at AL6 or above, or Foundation Maths at AL A, opens G2 Maths.

P6 meets the 2021 syllabus from 2026

P1 to P5 were on the 2021 syllabus by 2025, and P6 joins from 2026 with ratio, simple linear equations and circles. Rate stays at P5, and speed now begins in Sec 1, in both G2 and G3 Mathematics.

Paper 1 is written without a calculator

In PSLE Mathematics 0008, Paper 1 allows no calculator, and the syllabus marks order of operations and fraction division as calculator-free. Lessons keep written methods sharp from P5.

No mid-year exams, so weighted assessments carry the feedback

With mid-year examinations gone, P3 to P6 maths now has at most one weighted assessment a term. Each maths assessment becomes a clear checkpoint for lessons.

Standard or Foundation

How do Standard and Foundation Mathematics differ at P5 and P6?

Standard and Foundation Mathematics differ in content, PSLE paper and AL range, and the table sets the four decisive facts side by side.

Syllabus, paper and AL bands

The primary maths syllabus and the PSLE paper it leads to

Primary maths follows three strands to P6, then the PSLE Mathematics 0008 paper of 45 questions and 100 marks turns the year's work into an AL.

01

Three strands from P1 to P6

The 2021 syllabus groups primary maths into three content strands. Number and Algebra and Measurement and Geometry add topics every year, while the P5 Standard list carries no Statistics topic and average returns to Statistics at P6.

Number and Algebra

Whole numbers from 100 at P1 to 10 million at P5; the four operations; factors and multiples; fractions, mixed numbers and fraction of a set; decimals to three places; percentage, including percentage increase and decrease; rate; ratio with whole numbers; algebra up to simple linear equations

Measurement and Geometry

Length, mass, volume and time; area and perimeter; angles, perpendicular and parallel lines; rectangle, square, triangle, parallelogram, rhombus and trapezium; nets and line symmetry; volume of cube and cuboid; area and circumference of circle, semicircle, quarter circle and composite figures

Statistics

Picture graphs at P1, then with scales at P2; bar graphs at P3; tables, line graphs and pie charts at P4; average at P6

02

PSLE Mathematics from 2026, Standard and Foundation

Both papers are sat on one day with a break. Paper 1 is calculator-free and worth half the Standard marks, so written methods decide a large share of the AL.

A P6 question, solved

Primary maths worked example: ratio after a transfer

Primary maths ratio at P6 uses whole numbers only, and a 3 : 5 transfer question shows how the unit method keeps the total steady.

01

P6 ratio: one gives, both end equal

The problem

The ratio of the number of marbles Aiman has to the number Ben has is 3 : 5. Ben gives Aiman 12 marbles, and then both boys have the same number. How many marbles did Aiman have at first?

Worked solution

  1. 1The total stays the same because marbles only move between the two boys. 3 units plus 5 units gives 8 units in total.
  2. 2At the end both have the same number, so the 8 units split into 4 units each.
  3. 3Aiman goes from 3 units to 4 units, so he gains 1 unit. That 1 unit is the 12 marbles Ben gave him.
  4. 4So 1 unit is 12 marbles, and Aiman had 3 units at first, which is 3 times 12, or 36 marbles.
  5. 5Check: Ben had 5 times 12, or 60 marbles. After the transfer Aiman has 48 and Ben has 48, so both match.

Answer: Aiman had 36 marbles at first.

Find what stays the same before drawing anything. Here it is the total, so both ratios share 8 units, which is the habit the pitfall on ratio scope builds.

02

Where primary maths marks leak, and the routine that fixes each

Each pitfall below ties to a rule in the 2021 syllabus or the PSLE 0008 paper, so each fix is a routine a learner can rehearse.

A wrong final answer on a one-part 2-mark short answer, with no working written down.

The method earns 1 mark when the answer slips, so lessons train a learner to write the key line for every one-part 2-mark question.

An answer given in a different unit from the one printed in the answer space.

The unit is printed in the answer space, so the learner converts the answer into that unit before writing it.

Paper 1 order of operations and fraction division done slowly, as if a calculator were coming.

These skills are marked calculator-free in the syllabus, so the learner rehearses fraction division and order of operations by hand from P5.

Hours spent on ratios with fractions and decimals that sit outside the P6 syllabus.

P6 ratio uses whole numbers in a:b and a:b:c, so practice time goes to unit changes, transfers and constant totals.

Taking the percentage of the whole when the question asks about the remainder.

The learner underlines who is being counted, writes the matching percentage first, and then multiplies once.

Averaging the averages when a new item joins a group.

Average questions go through totals: average times count gives each total, and the difference between totals gives the new item.

Method and school rhythm

How a primary maths lesson builds problem solving

Primary maths lessons follow Polya's 4 steps, which the MOE framework names, and plan around a school year with no mid-year exams.

01

Polya's four steps in a one-to-one lesson

The 2021 syllabus places Mathematical Problem Solving at the centre of its framework and names Polya's four steps. One-to-one, the tutor hears each step, so a gap shows where it starts.

Polya's 4 steps to problem solving, with heuristics for non-routine questions
  1. 1

    Understand the problem

    The learner retells the question in their own words and circles what is known and what is asked. A misread question shows here, before any working begins.

  2. 2

    Devise a plan

    The learner picks a heuristic such as drawing a diagram, listing systematically or working backwards, and says why it suits the question.

  3. 3

    Carry out the plan

    Working goes down line by line, since PSLE structured questions ask the learner to show the method of solution clearly. A stall shows the exact line where help is needed, and one guiding question moves it on.

  4. 4

    Look back

    The learner checks the answer against the question, as in the marble check, and notes the heuristic for the next similar problem.

02

How the Singapore school year shapes primary maths tuition

MOE has reshaped primary assessment since 2019, and the school calendar decides when lessons push and when they consolidate.

P1 and P2 without weighted assessments

Weighted assessments and exams at P1 and P2 were removed from 2019, and schools report with qualitative descriptors. Lessons use these two years to secure number sense at an even pace.

A single graded maths checkpoint each term from P3

From P3, each subject carries at most one weighted assessment a term, so tuition plans each term around that single maths checkpoint.

No mid-year examinations

Mid-year exams have been removed, so feedback comes from weighted assessments and classroom assignments. Tutor notes after every session fill in the weeks between.

P4 results inform the P5 recommendation

The school recommends Standard or Foundation from P4 school examination results, and the option form states the preferred combination. That makes P4 the year where a steady maths base pays off most directly.

Accountability

How is primary maths progress reported?

A parent or guardian follows each child's maths through notes written after each lesson and a fuller report once a month.

Tutor notes after every session

Names the topic, the questions worked and the step where the learner paused.

Monthly progress report

Sums up topics secured and planned next, by syllabus strand.

Weighted assessment checkpoints

From P3, the plan names the next weighted assessment and its likely maths topics.

Worksheets kept with the notes

Lesson worksheets stay with the learner, so revision starts from real work.
