2024年5月8日，新加坡教育部長陳振聲在國會書面答覆阿裕尼集選區議員嚴燕松關於2018 年至 2023 年各教育機構護理課程的入學人數相關問題。
以下內容為新加坡眼根據國會英文資料翻譯整理：
25 嚴燕松（阿裕尼集選區議員）先生詢問教育部長，2018 年至 2023 年期間，每年：
(a) 各教育機構國家工藝教育局護理證書（Nitec in Nursing）、高級國家工教局護理證書（Higher Nitec in Nursing）以及護理專業文憑（Diploma in Nursing）課程的學額分別有多少？
(b) 有多少學生申請這些課程？
(c) 有多少學生被錄取？
(d) 有多少學生符合最低入學要求，但因為課程超額報名而被拒絕入學？
陳振聲（教育部長）先生：工藝教育學院 (ITE) 和理工學院課程的學額是根據不同行業的人力需求和學生興趣等因素確定的。
2018 年至 2023 年期間，工藝教育學院每年為國家工藝教育局護理證書 (Nitec) 預留約 500 個名額，並已全部報滿。每年約有900名學生申請該課程作為他們的第一志願，其中約有一半申請者被錄取。由於高級國家工教局護理證書（Higher Nitec）課程於2024 年新推出，因此沒有相關數據。
同期，南洋理工學院和義安理工學院為護理專業文憑預留了約 1,400 個名額，每年約有 1,300 名學生被這些課程錄取。其中一半是符合入學要求並將護理作為第一志願的申請者。
以下是英文質詢內容：
25 Mr Gerald Giam Yean Song asked the Minister for Education in each year from 2018 to 2023 (a) how many places were available for (i) Nitec in Nursing (ii) Higher Nitec in Nursing and (iii) Diploma in Nursing programmes respectively at all educational institutions; (b) how many students applied for these courses; (c) how many were accepted; and (d) how many students met the minimum entry requirements but were denied admission because the courses were oversubscribed.
Mr Chan Chun Sing: The number of places set aside for courses at the Institute of Technical Education (ITE) and polytechnics is determined by taking into account factors such as manpower needs of the different sectors and students』 interests.
Between 2018 and 2023, about 500 places were set aside for the Nitec in Nursing at the ITE each year, with all places filled. About 900 students per year applied to the course as their first choice, with about half of these applicants admitted. There is no available data for the Higher Nitec in Nursing, as the course was newly introduced in 2024.
Over the same period, about 1,400 places were set aside for the Diploma in Nursing at Nanyang Polytechnic and Ngee Ann Polytechnic, with about 1,300 students admitted to these courses each year. Half of these were applicants who met the admission requirements and placed nursing as their first choice.
