Oh nice! Our kids may become classmates if both get the combination successfully! :celebrate:[/quote]Curious. Is this like the humanities program? Do you take 9 or 10 subjects including 3 humanities? What’s the likely career path of such combination? Thanks!
History, maths and sci r all start in y3. According to my child...geo selection will be in y3 itselfshutter\" post_id=\"2045352\" time=\"1636294293\" user_id=\"5938:

Realise that the talent programmes for each subject start in different years?
Oh btw, am I right to say that there won't be subjects like FCE, Music, Digital Literacy etc in upper secondary?
We chose triple humanities too..... -

Thanks!In upper sec, students are required to take \"Singapore Studies\" as a compulsory Humanities subject. They can choose to take only \"Singapore Studies\" or take up to 2 other Humanities subjects, depending on the rest of their subject combination. A triple Humanities / triple Science combi would be 9 subjects.

For ours, LA, HMT/ MT, 2 MAs, Chemistry, (some form of) SS are compulsory in upper secondary. For one (of my kids'), (what I'd refer to as) 'triple humanities' means the class gets to choose a 2nd humanities (HI), & they study humanities more in depth/ enriched (I'm guessing, cos they don't have literally 3 humanities subjects but are active in external programs). For the other, 'triple humanities' means the class gets to pick a 2nd humanities (HI/ GE) and a 3rd (Advanced Humanities). Triple humanities is challenging -

Is it a Humanities Programme that you're referring to then for the class that does external programmes?
Oh, in RV, they cover the content of E. Math and A. Math as one subject. -

In other words, you can do Singapore studies with both history and literature. Total 3 humanities. And if you include the 2 languages, 1 math, CID and 2 science then it’s a total of 9 subjects. Correct? -

My DS just got accepted into RV. May I find out more about what kind of learning device they use, school hours and culture?
