FY2018 BUDGET

The revised FY2018 total expenditure of the Ministry of Education (MOE) is $13.09 billion. This is $399.37 million or 3.1% higher than the actual FY2017 expenditure of $12.69 billion. Of the total expenditure, $12.64 billion or 96.6% is for operating expenditure and $450.00 million or 3.4% is for development expenditure.

Operating Expenditure

The revised operating expenditure of $12.64 billion is $560.46 million or 4.6% higher than the actual FY2017 operating expenditure of $12.08 billion, mainly due to annual salary increments, normal cost increases, the transfer of preemployment clinical training (PECT) funding from the Ministry of Health (MOH) to MOE for medical degree programmes from FY2018, and increase in endowment matching grants to the Autonomous Universities (AUs) due to higher donations raised.

Development Expenditure

The revised development expenditure of $450.00 million is $161.09 million or 26.4% lower than the actual FY2017 development expenditure of $611.09 million. This is mainly due to lower cashflow requirements for information and communications technology (ICT), building projects for schools and AUs' infrastructure projects.

FY2019 BUDGET

The total expenditure of MOE in FY2019 is projected to be $13.20 billion, which is $110.00 million or 0.8% higher than the revised FY2018 expenditure. $12.49 billion or 94.6% is for operating expenditure and $710.00 million or 5.4% is for development expenditure.

The projected operating expenditure of $12.49 billion is a decrease of $150.00 million or 1.2% over the revised FY2018 operating expenditure. The projected development expenditure of $710.00 million is an increase of $260.00 million or 57.8% over the revised FY2018 development expenditure.

General Education Programme

Under our education system, every child is given the opportunity to complete at least 10 years of formal school education. The total number of students (including those in the Independent Schools) subsidised by MOE for FY2019 is 423,600. The General Education Programme undertaken by Government, Government-Aided, Special Education, and Independent Schools accounts for $6.72 billion in FY2019, which is higher than the revised FY2018 expenditure of $6.67 billion by $48.88 million or 0.7%. Operating expenditure, which accounts for $6.41 billion or 95.3%, is projected to increase by $52.05 million, while development expenditure is projected to decrease by $3.17 million. The increase in operating expenditure is mainly due to annual cost adjustments and initiatives to improve the quality of education.

University Programme

A provision of $2.75 billion has been made for the university sector in FY2019 to train high quality graduate manpower to support Singapore's economic needs, and to support the universities' research efforts. The total number of students (including both undergraduates and postgraduates) subsidised by MOE at the AUs1 in FY2019 is projected to be 76,000.

Of the total FY2019 provision, $2.49 billion or 90.6% is for operating expenditure and $256.90 million or 9.4% is for development expenditure. Compared to the FY2018 revised budget, operating expenditure will decrease by $455.30 million, while development expenditure will increase by $235.78 million. The decrease in operating expenditure in FY2019 is mainly due to lower endowment matching grants to the AUs, the completion of funding for principal and interest repayments for AU development projects and the reclassification of the funding for Continuing Education and Training (CET) programmes in the AUs to the SkillsFuture Programme. The increase in development expenditure is due to the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT)'s new Punggol campus.

1 The Autonomous Universities refer to NUS, NTU, SMU, SUTD, SIT and Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS).

73

Polytechnic Programme

A provision of $1.28 billion has been made for the polytechnic sector in FY2019 to deliver industry and technical training for employment and further education to students who have completed their secondary education. The total number of students subsidised by MOE in FY2019 at the polytechnics is projected to be 67,200.

Of the total FY2019 provision, $1.26 billion or 98.1% is for operating expenditure and $23.72 million or 1.9% is for development expenditure. Compared to the FY2018 revised budget, operating expenditure is projected to decrease by $17.50 million, while development expenditure will increase by $9.70 million. The decrease in operating expenditure is mainly due to the transfer of Early Childhood (EC) budget to the National Institute of Early Childhood Development (NIEC) from October 2018, while the increase in development budget is mainly due to higher cashflow requirement for the Temasek Polytechnic campus rejuvenation project.

Institute of Technical Education Programme

A provision of $473.26 million has been made for ITE in FY2019 to deliver technical and vocational training to students who have completed secondary education. The total number of students subsidised by MOE in FY2019 at ITE is projected to be 26,400.

The total FY2019 provision of $473.26 million is for operating expenditure. Compared to the FY2018 revised budget, operating expenditure is projected to decrease by $12.09 million, mainly due to lower student enrolment.

SkillsFuture Programme

The national SkillsFuture movement promotes a culture of lifelong learning and strengthens the system of quality education and training in Singapore. A provision of $413.99 million has been made for SSG in FY2019 to implement plans, policies and strategies to support lifelong learning and skills development under SkillsFuture.

Other Consolidated Fund Outlays

Advances for FY2019 are projected to be $215.10 million, mainly for Tuition Fee Loan and Study Loan to students from polytechnics and AUs.
