| Curriculum Aims: |
Besides enabling students to use English to handle their own affairs (study, self-management, personal enrichment, problem solving), communicate and collaborate with others and examine and respond to contemporary issues from multiple perspectives (personal, social, national and global), we also offer them the chance to experience the cultures of other people, appreciate English literature and enjoy the pleasure of learning and creating in the medium of English. Our curriculum and extra-curricular activities will see to it that positive values and attitudes are inculcated in our students so they will grow up to be cultivated and civic-minded intellectuals with a strong moral fibre, cultural understanding and global vision. |
| Subject Description: |
The curriculum comprises five areas of study, namely, Reading, Viewing, Listening, Speaking, and Writing. Three Electives are chosen for F. 4 to 6 students.
