Programmes and Outcomes

To help us achieve our goals, the Science Department lives by the motto “The World, Our Classroom”. We want our teachers and students to leverage on daily experiences as teaching and learning opportunities, so that authentic and meaningful learning can take place.

We live by the motto through:
