      Thereโ€™s no escaping SS in IP school I think. Itโ€™s called integrated humanities in IP schools but textbook is SS.
      There is no escaping social studies in IP stream. But each school does it in their own way (which I think is approved by moe). In ny, it is prob called Integrated Humanities. In some other IPs, it is called something else. But yes, no escaping social studies.

              TKGS girls have been doing very well in O-level (Economics) subject, for several batches already.
              Why suddenly removed Econs, in Upper Sec 3 & 4 ?

              If u say that TKGS remove Econs bec the students don't do well, we all can understand.
              But to take out Econs,
              after past batches had done well in Econs ... doesn't quite make sense. Unless, there are some other underlying reasons, behind.

                  Hi all, Iโ€™m considering TKGS for my daughter for Sec 1 next year. I would like to know where do the students go for MSP (Malay special program) classes? As I noted MSP is not part of their school subjects offered.


                  According to the website, school ends at 2.45pm, isnโ€™t this quite late compared to other schools I heard is around 1.30 - 2.15pm?
                  Thanks in advance!

                    Info for TKGS Sec 1 2019 batch:-

                    Students offering MSP will attend lessons once a week, 3 hours per session outside school curriculum time at the nearest MSP centre

                    Tampines Secondary School
                    Zhonghua Secondary School
                    MOE Language Centre (Bishan)

                    All the best.

                      If a subject is removed,
                      A few reasons why school chooses to do so,
                      Not enough students to form a class/
                      Students enrolment is dwindling/
                      Tkgs Econs result is not ideal.

                      From TKGS 2021 results, can guess the reason why.

                        fatbear,

                        If TKGS drop off Sec 3 Econs next year (2023), if your daughter still desire to study Econs, then she should enrol into Presbyterian High Secondary school , if she is Sec 1 (2023) next year,
                        because
                        over there in PHS, still have Econs.

                        Now, left only 3 schools in entire Singapore still offering Econs, ie.

                        (Temasek Secondary,
                        Presbyterian High and
                        another Secondary school in the west)
