We are all quite clueless, even into 2nd week. Son sms me at 1030h informing me of it. So i think it is made known to them a while ago. Last min, which means got to cancel all programs later in the afternoon.

I just called the admin office to check. The man said definitely has cca orientation 2 to 5 pm. Students have been told to remain in class after sch.

Yup, I have also asked my DS to submit the transfer form. Hope it will not clash with his CCA, or else got to ask for class transfer again. :xedfingers:

Anyone knows whether the Sec 5 IP program students are in school now ?


If yes, then when the intake from O Levels come in, how are they gonna catch up ?

If no, that means holiday for Sec 5 IP students are so long ?

My DS brought back a piece of paper entitled : 中一语特课程（算一科目的分数）。 Anyone here knows what is this all about. My DS says is LEP (chinese), but I thought LEP is part of CSE which starts in year 3. According to him, if you do well in it, it will help in your chinese language marks and vice versa. I would like to know how long do they have to stay on this course (i.e. Year 1 only or throughout the 4 years or …)? What if they can’t cope, can they drop-out?


If you have any details about this, appreciate if you can share it here.

Thank you.
