That Fast Tracks Your Child for General Paper (GP) in JC

A Comprehensive IP English Syllabus That Includes English Literature and Language Arts

We understand that the IP English syllabus is robust, so as to prepare students for General Paper (GP) at the A levels, since IP students do not sit for the O levels.

Our curriculum mirrors this objective by infusing elements unique to the IP syllabus, such as 'Application Questions' (AQ), Literature Analysis, Language Arts (eg. Poetry) and Expository Writing.
