新加坡教育花在公民還是外籍留學生身上多？

2024年7月2日，新加坡教育部長陳振聲在國會書面答複非選區議員梁文輝有關政府用于永久居民和非居民學生的總支出。

以下内容為新加坡眼根據國會英文資料翻譯整理：

梁文輝（非選區議員）先生詢問教育部長：2022及2023 财年政府用于國小、中學和高等教育機構的永久居民學生和非居民學生的總支出明細分别是多少？

陳振聲（教育部長）先生：按每名學生計算，與永久居民學生和國際學生相比，教育部在新加坡公民學生身上的人均支出要高得多。這反映在學生的學費上，其中國際學生的學費最高。總體而言，新加坡公民學生的總支出遠遠高于永久居民學生，而永久居民學生的總支出又高于國際學生。

潘勤群（非選區議員）女士詢問教育部長，自2019年以來，新加坡政府每年：

(a)分别向多少名大專預科、理工學院和大學國際學生提供獎學金？

(b)每類獎學金的年度費用中位數分别是多少？

(c)大學國際生中，僅獲得學費補助、獲得學費補助和獎學金組合以及全額支付學費的比例分别是多少？

陳振聲（教育部長）先生：獲得獎學金的國際學生占大學預科教育和高等教育學生的不到1%。獎學金的平均名義價值取決于他們的學習水準和課程。我們不為在理工學院學習的國際學生提供獎學金。

大約一半的大學生國際學生支付扣除學費後的費用，而四分之一的學生同時獲得學費和獎學金。其餘的學生作為國際生支付全額學費。所有獲得學費補助的學生畢業後都必須在新加坡工作至少三年。

以下是英文質詢内容：

Mr Leong Mun Wai asked the Minister for Education what is the breakdown of the Government’s total expenditure in FY2022 and FY2023 on permanent resident students and non-resident students respectively in (i) primary schools (ii) secondary schools and (iii) pre-tertiary educational institutes, respectively.

Mr Chan Chun Sing: On a per student basis, the Ministry of Education spends much more on Singapore Citizen students compared to permanent resident and international students. This is reflected in the fees payable by students, with fees for international students being the highest. Overall, total spending on Singapore Citizen students is much higher than for permanent resident students, which is, in turn, higher than for international students.

Ms Hazel Poa asked the Minister for Education in each year since 2019 (a) how many (i) pre-tertiary (ii) polytechnic and (iii) university international students have been granted scholarships by the Singapore Government, respectively; (b) what is the median annual cost for each category of scholarships, respectively; and (c) what is the proportion of undergraduate international students who are (i) on tuition grant only (ii) on a combination of tuition grant and scholarships and (iii) full-fee paying.

Mr Chan Chun Sing: International students on scholarships make up less than 1% of pre-tertiary and tertiary students. The average nominal value of the scholarships depends on their level and course of study. We do not offer scholarships for international students to study at the polytechnics.

About half of undergraduate international students pay fees net of a tuition grant, while a quarter receive both tuition grant and scholarship. The remaining pay full fees as international students. All students who receive the tuition grant are required to work in Singapore for at least three years upon graduation.
