NJC has interesting curriculum. Everyone has to take HMT, regardless of whether you qualify for it or not, and exactly the same combination for Years 1-4. Very different from other IP schools.

Is this HMT compulsory for all confirmed? I could not find such info on its website. Written an email to the sch, but no reply yet.

I don't know. NJC did not go to my child's school.

My daughter received a thick red brochure during the talk in her school. In addition, there is another booklet (small, light green) given out during NJC school tour this year, Academic Programme Information for JH1. It provides more information on the modules for JH1. For example Language Arts, there are 3 modules; \"Clues, Sleuths and Inkblots\", \"Get into the Groove\" and \"Blast from the past\". It was the information provided in the booklet that made her decide to go to NJC.

Thanks so much for the info.

I suppose the HMT made compulsory is spelled out in the Academic Programme Information?

It doesn't say specifically. But in the list of subjects for JH1, it is stated HMT. There are no other options.
