7 new schools to offer Integrated Program for upcoming new JC

The all-boys Catholic High School and the all-girls CHIJ Saint Nicholas Girls' and Singapore Chinese Girls' schools have banded together to create a new Integrated Programme (IP). The IP will begin with the Secondary 1 cohort of 2013.

The three are among seven schools that have got the approval from the Ministry of Education to give up the O levels for an IP leading to A levels or the International Baccalaureate (IB). The expansion of the IP to more schools was announced by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong at the National Day Rally on Sunday (Aug 29). MORE
