Languages emphasis is placed on developing all skills, such as listening, speaking, reading, writing and thinking in a balanced manner.

Science and Technology focus is on developing the key concepts which cut across all the disciplines of science and on encouraging learners to improvise simple equipment and design experiments.

Social Science emphasis is placed on the processes of learning and developing academic and social skills rather than mere acquisition of facts.The pace of academic demands is slowly accelerated and, while holistic growth is always the focus, our students are gradually prepared to accept challenges. Our students become aware of the need to set goals and have long-term objectives.
