Sch has started... things have changed...

Its the second day of sch and the principal made announcement on the new changes to the sch time table/curriculum... i've been busy with my holiday assignments...

Although this week's time table is slack... it already show wat's going to be like when the full time table commence as the OGL return to classroom activities... to accommodate with MOE's call for 5 day work week... the time table have been changed... its now grouped into 2 different part... Institute Governed Programme (IGP) and Interest Development Programme (IDP)...

IGP is from 8am to 4pm... as said... its the time in sch set by the sch itself... purely academics... also... each period is changed to half an hour... most period are double period... hence 1hr period... no CCA shld be put in place within this period of time...

after 4pm... IDP kicks in... until 7pm... its mainly to develop and pursue things for ur own interest... there are over 30 enrichment course to be chosen from, each of the 10 departments organised 3, but there are another 2 compulsory course... tat are the PC(physical conditioning) and Games(sports)... the 30 enrichments are like photonics, tourism course, etc...

these 2 will be placed at any of the 4 days from monday to thursday... friday is set aside for CCA... monday and wed is for PC, tues and thurs is for Games.... PC will be normal PE lesson... while Games will be from sports like badminton, soccer, netball, basketball, T & F, tennis, outdoor, etc... there are 10 including YOGA..!!! which every class will take for at least 1 sch term... each one of us will have to choose a sports to take but each sports has limited places of 90... sch players can take up Games for practises...

the time slot for 4-7pm is 1hr each... PC and Games will take up one 1 hr period each... PC is already assigned to each class... my class kanna wed 5pm... so sian... badminton is on friday... any of the 3 slots tat day...

teach less learn more, TLLM, is taken into consideration for the time table... hence is maybe tat slack for us in the future timetable... i dunno whether these changes will be beneficial or not... hopefully it does.. hopefully i will work hard also...
