Foundation English for Secondary Level
The Secondary Foundation English Course is designed for international students who require additional support in building a solid foundation in English before progressing to secondary-level mainstream or preparatory courses. The program focuses on enhancing core language skills in reading, writing, listening, and speaking, with greater emphasis on academic vocabulary, grammar accuracy, comprehension strategies, and essay writing techniques.
This course also prepares students for entry-level secondary assessments (e.g., AEIS Secondary 1–3) and builds their confidence to actively participate in subject learning across the curriculum.
