Abstract: The Singapore education system was created nearly from the scratch, and in the last 45 years it managed to reach a high level of efficiency and international recognition. Singapore school students routinely show the best results in international knowledge tests. Singapore has left behind developed countries in the quality of the education institution development, its educational infrastructure is compact and well integrated into the overall economic structure. The article summarizes the findings of a working visit of a group of senior education managers from Tatarstan to Singapore. It lays out the main stages of development of the education system in this country. A particular emphasis is given to the specifics of the administrative work and education management.DOI: 10.17323/1814-9545-2010-4-227-246
