The Language Arts subject that students take in JH1 and JH2 is continued in JH3 and JH4, with a greater emphasis on advanced language and literature skills.

The Language Arts subject in JH3 and JH4 is designed to build on the foundation laid in JH1 and JH2, with a greater focus on critical reading, analysis, and interpretation of literary texts. Students will study a range of literary genres, including poetry, drama, and prose, and will be expected to demonstrate an understanding of literary techniques and devices, as well as the historical and cultural contexts in which texts were written.

Sorry to barge in. Coolcat, from your replies, I am guessing you have a child currently in NJC.

Would appreciate if you could share your/your child's views of the school, culture and also reasons for choosing the school please? If you prefer, you can also PM me. Thanks.

My parent friends shared this AI chatbot that apparently can answer any questions a kid has, not sure if legit or not.

The site is askmeedu com

hi, I know someone posted this answer before but I need more detailed answers. my gal in JH1 now and till now they have not started any essay writing yet. and from what I see from the booklet, it seems like no essay writing will be done this year. I am concerned if the school preps them well for the A level GP in terms of essay writing and comprehension. I still think kids still need practice and whether the school is teaching them to skills to write well and if there is sufficient practice in school. their website also does not state much explicitly about the LA syllabus. if not I may have to outsource to tuition centre.

Hi Parents.

Can anyone share their experience as to the kind of commitment (or workload) is expected of kids going in through DSA STEM? What extra commitments are expected of them?
Thanks

Hi, have your child gone for the selection test recently at NJC?
My child is shortlisted for an interview. But now we are not sure whether to accept IF she gets a CO…
This forum has been rather quiet since 2020. Am trying to find out more about NJC culture and how the school is like.

Hi Parents,

Anyone has experienced NJC DSA AEP interview after being shortlisted after Aptitude Test?

Please do share your child’s experience regarding NJC DSA AEP interview. The email indicates to bring any "relevant certificates or documents" but no need to bring school records.

What kind of certificates or documents usually one brings? She does not have any certificates actually related to art but only certificates on Eng, Math, and Sci.
I was wondering if it helps to bring her daily sketches or printout of her other digital design but I wonder if this is not necessary anymore as e-portfolio was already submitted during initial stage.

And what are the usual questions during interview?

If there’s another link related to this topic, please share also.

I would really appreciate any inputs. Thanks for the time.

Hi Eva,
Did your girl went for the interview last friday 25 Aug ? Seem like not much response from this forum on DSA or the culture of NJC. Seem like quite big group was selected for the interview and i was wondering how many will be selected
