The programme will focus on covering content in terms of developments in key domains of global interest. The seamless blending of content mastery and skills development throughout the programme, with a strong focus on exam skills makes our JC2 GP programme effective for your child.
Content and Language Mastery
Students continue to strengthen their content knowledge and familiarity with the A level examination components and their assessment requirements. These include:
• composition
• comprehension
• summary
• application question
Through comprehensive content packs and texts, our programme covers a wide range of general knowledge topics and current affairs to help students build their content knowledge. These topics include:
• globalisation and social issues
• politics
• the media
• arts and philosophy
Skills and Techniques
Teachers will focus on helping students to hone their analytical and writing skills. Students will learn how to:
• organise their arguments in a coherent and logical manner, providing relevant examples to substantiate their arguments
• critically evaluate information and lines of reasoning presented in written texts
• analyse and identify different composition and comprehension question types and use appropriate answering strategies to fulfil question requirements
Revision and Reinforcement
To help students prepare for the A level examinations, teachers will work closely with students to help them:
• master time management skills through practice tests in simulated exam conditions
• review key exam strategies such as question analysis and essay structures
• review errors and refine answering techniques
• recap key content points for various topics tested in the General Paper examination and learn to apply content knowledge with accuracy and relevance
In the second year of the 2-year programme, emphasis is placed on strengthening the foundation in pure mathematics and building a strong foundation in statistics. In the second half of the year, preparation for the A Level Examinations will begin and the programme refines key application skills needed for the examinations.
Content Mastery
• Students will focus on the statistical component, including topics such as Discrete Random Variable, Distributions of Random Variable, Sampling, Hypothesis Testing, Correlation and Regression.
• Students will be taught the concepts and theories behind many statistical topics to promote a deeper understanding for the topics.
Skill and Techniques
• Students will be exposed to statistics related functions that are available on the GC to help evaluate answers easily.
• Students will be taught how to create lists and plot data points with relevant regression line.
• Students will learn to identify statistics topics required for each question and integrate knowledge from different topics to clearly present answer.
• Tutorials involving real-world problems will be introduced to students to train them to integrate knowledge of multiple concepts to solve questions.
Revision and Reinforcement
• Students will focus on content mastery for all the topics through topical revision packages that include questions that test foundational knowledge and examination questions.
• Through practice tests, students will also learn examination skills such as time management and error analysis.
