But when the student takes part in activities not arranged through the school, he needs to fill a form and get it signed etc, and those requirements will vary from school to school. And some schools may be stricter about what is recognised.<br /><br />The new system that applies to this year's sec 1 students:<br /><a href="http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/seconda">http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/seconda</a> ... /leaps.pdf<p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/topic/76075/cip-hour</link><generator>RSS for Node</generator><lastBuildDate>Fri, 08 May 2026 14:18:33 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link href="https://forum.kiasuparents.com/topic/76075.rss" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><pubDate>Mon, 30 Jun 2014 00:11:11 GMT</pubDate><ttl>60</ttl><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to CIP Hour on Sun, 29 Jun 2014 09:21:47 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">CIP stands for Community Involvement Programme. Your school may arrange for some of these activities for the students to participate in. Otherwise, you can source for external ones to volunteer your services - it can be charity organisation or others. How you submit your volunteering hours you need to check with your school. Usually most schools require that you have organisation verification in the form of a letter or form stating the date, time, hours or even events you have volunteered for services at the organisation. Best is to check with your school on the submission.</p>

How to make sure school recognized it if it’s done outside the school?<br /><br /><br />Is there any relationship between the CIP hour and the CCA?<br /><br />How does CIP help towards calculation of L1R5?<br /><br />Heard that CIP points would need to be completed by end Sec 3.  Is that true?<br /><br />Thanks.</p>
