What is the Integrated Programmes (IP)? Is it any different from the local O/A level syllabus?

While the GCE ‘O’ Levels serve as a valuable intermediate benchmark for the majority of our pupils, those who are clearly university-bound can benefit from engaging in broader learning experiences during their Secondary and JC years.

The Integrated Programmes (IP) will provide an integrated secondary and JC education where secondary school pupils can proceed to JC without taking the GCE ‘O’ Level Examinations.

Schools offering IP will optimise the time freed up from preparing for the GCE ‘O’ Levels to stretch pupils and provide greater breadth in the academic and non-academic curriculum. However, these schools will continue to have school-based assessments to measure pupils’ progress.
