Polytechnics Courses are market driven and career oriented Students graduate with a Diploma Ready to enter the workforce

Poly olytechnic Fou oundation Programme (PFP (PFP) • One-year programme that offers a practice- oriented curriculum taught by polytechnic lecturers, to better prepare polytechnic-bound N(A) students for entry into relevant Polytechnic Diploma courses. • Provides an alternative to the Sec 5 year. • Polytechnic FP students are given provisional places in diploma programmes, subject to them passing all modules in the one-year Polytechnic FP.

Poly olytechnic Fou oundation Programme (PFP (PFP) • Requirement for students to at least pass all modules is to ensure that students continue to work hard during their FP year and enhance their preparedness for polytechnic studies. Students who apply effort should have no difficulties in meeting the requirement. • Cater to students in the top 10% of the Sec 4N(A) cohort.

Poly olytechnic Fou oundation Programme (PFP (PFP) • Eligibility Criteria • ELMAB3 (English, Math, Best 3 Subjects) raw aggregate score of 11 points or better (excluding CCA bonus points) at the GCE ‘N’ - Level examination • Specific Subject Requirements for Courses in Group 1 and 2 11

Poly olytechnic Fou oundation Programme (PFP (PFP) • The PFP is also available to Secondary 4 Normal (Academic) students who have sat for GCE ‘O’ -Level subjects. • These students are allowed to combine their ‘N’ - and ‘O’ -Level examination results to compute their eligibility. • If a student takes the same subject at both ‘N’ and ‘O’ Levels, only the better grade will be computed into his or her aggregate.
