Hi Artume, is robotics CCA training once or twice a week? ds wants to do robotics and 1 sport, not sure if the schedule allows for 2 CCA.

Hi, may I ask which day is the CCA for Infocomm club? Mon or Fri? Thanks.

Infocomm Club CCA is usually on Monday.
If Monday is a holiday, then there will be infocomm Club CCA on Friday.

Robotics is once, I think (my classmates only goes once a week).

Some CCAs allows the student to stagger if there is a clash. E.g. go for A on Monday, and go for B on Friday, even if B has two sessions a week.

"A" level have GP (General Paper) and KI (Knowledge Inquiry).


In NUS High, is there an equivalent to GP and KI ?
If have, what are they called ?

[Artume]

Well, GP is English, in essence. NUSH have English through 6 years.


In year 6 there is an elective module called "Theory of Knowledge". It is somewhat like KI, though structured to be like the ToK from the IB curriculum. It also has less content because it is only a semester long module.

[joseon]

is there any write up description on elective "Theory of Knowledge", to understand more ?

Theory of Knowledge is EL6202. It may or may not be there a few years later. It covers half (I think) of the content of IB Theory of Knowledge.
