Pathlight School is the first autism-focused school which offers Singapore's mainstream academic curriculum together with life readiness skills. Invited by the Ministry of Education (MOE), it began operations in January 2004 and is regarded as one of the fastest growing and progressive special schools in Singapore. The school caters to students with ASD and related disorders aged between 7 and 18 years who are cognitively able to access mainstream academic curriculum but require additional support such as smaller class sizes, special accommodations and teaching staff trained in autism. The school started out with 41 students in 2004, and now has an enrolment of more than 700.
