        I'm a fellow student from Anderson. Debate CCA is on Monday and Wednesday, 3.30pm to roughly 6pm.

        Your question regarding the amount of homework really depends on the teachers. Some teachers will go through notes and homework in class, while other teachers might just hand out homework and expect it to be done the next lesson.

        Lessons on Literature, Geography or History only happens at most twice a week (sometimes only once per week). Hence, students should have around 2-3 days to complete those subjects.

        For the 4 other main subjects, the teachers would normally go through the topic/chapter first before asking the students to complete the homework. Hence, students are able to finish the homework faster as they are familiar with the chapter/topic. Teachers are also lenient, they would not give so much homework at one time.

        For me, I am a Sec 2 student and can complete my homework daily by 10pm. Hope this helps.

                Anderson Sec does not provide Badminton CCA anymore but they do provide Sports CCAs like Basketball,Volleyball,Soccer,Netball(girls only),Table Tennis(most probably not accepting boys anymore) and wushu which is a club/ Sports CCA.

                  Hi, i'm a student from Anderson Sec,PE T-Shirts are only available to be bought in the school bookshop.
                  If you would like to buy PE-Tshirts,you may want to make a call to the school's General Office or come down to the school to ask if you're allowed to buy the Pe t shirts from the school bookshop.

                        Beyond the top tier schools (IP schools, brand name schools), Anderson is probably at the top of the next tier. It’s is not pure academically driven given that the school has NA and NT stream as well. Notwithstanding, the students tend to do well in O level.
