This paper reviews the historical development of bilingualism and bilingual educational policies in Singapore over the last half century. State promotion of bilingualism has received diverse responses in academia and from the public. How have the current bilingualism and bilingual educational policies in Singapore been developed and formed? What are their distinguishable characteristics over the past few decades? This paper addresses these questions by reviewing the academic literature in educational studies, linguistics and political economy on Singapore’s bilingualism and the secondary data, and explores the formation and consolidation of bilingualism from 1950s to 2000s. It also discusses the implications and challenges of the current landscape of bilingualism.
