Top Guitar Ensemble Schools in Singapore (SYF Distinction) and All 30 Schools by Cut-off
30 secondary schools in Singapore offer Guitar Ensemble as a CCA. They are grouped below by their 2025 PG3 non-affiliated cut-off point: find the band around your child's score, then look at school type and area.
A cut-off is the score of the last student admitted, so a smaller number is harder to get in. At exactly the cut-off, ties go to citizenship and choice order, so PRs and international students should leave a margin.
