Thank you so much mommyNg, phtthp, and cilipadi for the encouragements and sharing of experiences and info!! Once PSLE is over, will discuss with my boy and let him decide which school he wants to put as first choice. Will also try to find out more during the welcome tea sessions of both schools!
@Apriljas and @phankao, congratulations to your DC for receiving CO too!!! -

The NJC AEP is an established MOE program since 1985. In the first 4 years, they let the students try many different mediums, such as drawing, water color, acrylic painting, charcoal, animation, sculpture, clay, print making, etc., and by the 4th year, the students can choose the medium they want to produce an art work. NJC has quite a number of well-equipped art studios/rooms (e.g., ~30 computers for digital art/animation, kiln for pottery, paint, brushes). The school regularly organizes trips to art museums, galleries, career talks, and also hold their own and MOE-joint art exhibitions. They also encourage the students to participate in different art competitions (they even supported one of my DD's overseas competition trips). Every 2 years the school will organize an overseas trip for the AEP students, although this year's trip has been cancelled due to COVID-19. Since 2016, NJC became the AEP centre, where they offer the program to external secondary school students. Within NJC, the AEP cohort is usually small, maybe 12-18 (depending on year)? The AEP teachers are very experienced, nice, patient, helpful, and are able to give more personalized attention to each AEP student due to the small cohort. All JC AEP students in NJC will take H3 Art at A levels. At SH2, the students are given a small budget to buy art materials needed for their A level coursework.

As to how heavy the program is, I guess it really depends on individual student, how much time each student needs to take to complete certain pieces of art work, how fast they could do, what they are good at, etc.? The teachers will also set up milestones to help the students manage their progress (to ensure they don't procrastinate and cramp everything last minute). So far, my DD finds the program very manageable and enjoyed it very much. All in all, it is a really good program for those who are interested in art in an academic stream. Hope this helps!
