PEC 1

PEC 1 is basically designed to cater for students towards attaining junior secondary level English / ‘Form 3 English’. However, we put heavy emphasis in quality syllabus sourced from overseas and the ‘older’ SRP and LCE systems. Most importantly, the class provides an ideal environment for English learning.

PEC 'O' Level is designed to cater for students towards attaining 'O' level English / ‘Form 5 English’. Emphasis is exerted on the preparation of students towards excelling in their examinations and preparation for tertiary studies.
