Academics

edit

The school provides secondary education which generally lasts five years. Students begin their studies in Year 7 and for two years they are assessed through Student Progress Assessment. This assessment will determine what streams they will proceed for the remaining years, in which they may differ in the range of subjects. Students in the 'Express' stream may also be able to complete secondary after Year 8 in only two years.

At the end of Year 11 (Year 10 of the 'Express' stream), students will sit for GCE 'O' Level examination. Some may also have subjects which are assessed under IGCSE qualification. Regardless, the grades obtained from the examination will factor for entry to sixth form or technical and vocational education.
