For students studying in:

The Express and Normal (Academic) streams
In Secondary One, the focus is on Physics and Biology topics. In Secondary Two, the focus is on Physics and Chemistry topics. In Upper Secondary level, students have a combination of choice within the three disciplines.

The Normal (Technical) streams
In Secondary One, the focus is on Physics and Chemistry topics. In Secondary Two, the focus is on Chemistry and Biology topics. In Secondary Three, the focus is on Physics Topics. In Secondary Four, the focus is on Chemistry and Biology topics.

Some of our approaches are:

Self-directed learning aided with information technology through inquiry-based learning and online learning programme, e.g. sciberdiver, modules involving usage of dataloggers

Enhanced Learning Experience through learning journeys and competitions.
