            BSP is MOE Scholarship 4 years programme. Thus, interested students can apply through school at Sec 2 but the selection tests and interviews are by MOE, not the school itself. Successful students have to commit the programme from Sec 3, Sec 4, JC1 & JC2. Once accept the offer, the students are not eligible or/cannot apply for other MOE Scholarship programme. I think around Sept the school will organised talks to explain about the BSP MOE scholarship & CLEP scholarshipship & strongly encouraged the students to apply. Note that there is 2 different Chinese programme for the MOE Scholarship. Then the teachers will give up the application form for the students who are keen on this programme during that time before EYE at Sec 2.

            On the other hand, if students do not want to commit themselves to BSP Scholarship, the students can opt for BSP Tier 1 or 2 under the compulsory Sec 3/4 HCL culture programme. On top of this, students can opt for BSP research as SIA in Sec 3. But do take note that, this BSP short programme by NYGH is not to be confused with the BSP MOE scholarship 4 years' programme. ^-^
            Thank you Swc, Dawn and Ganjiongspider for your replies.

                I’ve just had a look at the booklist. Even I take into account some are "either or" options, it’s adding up to quite a bit. Will these books really be used? Or like Swc mentioned, students will mostly rely on notes? Cos I remember the primary school book list used to list books that were stated as compulsory, but my children said never/hardly used. It was such a waste of money.

                  Chinese, LA and Geog used extensively. History - students are expected to read the textbooks in their own as background reading. In class, teacher does not use it for teaching. However, you do have to have read the textbooks so I guess you do need a copy.
                  Maths - again, teacher uses notes to teach but some assignments come out from the textbooks/workbooks.
                  Science is the only subject that my DD din even touch the textbooks for the whole year.

                        Yes some sec 2 syllabus will be taught at sec 1. But some sec 1 syllabus will also be taught at sec 2.
