Comparison of Turkey's (2018) primary school science curriculum and Singapore's (2014) primary school science curriculum

The importance of Science and Technology is increasing day by day. It is important for our country that our students can solve the problems that they may encounter in daily life and produce innovations for science and technology. The science curriculum supports and guides the development of our students by incorporating these needs that are important for our country. Students' achievements are measured by national and international exams. In this regard, Singapore's success in international exams draws attention. For this reason, in this study, a comparison is made between Turkey's and Singapore's science curriculum. The aim of this study is to compare Turkey's (2018) Science Curriculum (primary and secondary school grades 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8) with Singapore's (2014) Science Curriculum for Primary Schools (grades 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) and Singapore (2021) Science Curriculum for Secondary Schools by identifying their similarities and differences in terms of their structures, program objectives, contents, educational situations, measurement and evaluation approaches. During this study, qualitative research method, comparative education and survey model were used. The data in the study were obtained through document analysis method.
