Institute of Technical Education (ITE).
2 Eligibility
2.1 The following groups of students are eligible to participate in the JAE :
2.1.1 All Singapore Citizens or Permanent Residents (SC/PR) with valid GCE ‘O’ Level
Examination results. However, any SC/PR who was previously admitted to a JC, MI,
Poly, ITE* should not apply for an institution in the same category through the JAE.
2.1.2 International Students studying in a Government School, Government-Aided School or

Independent School in Singapore with valid 2009 Singapore-Cambridge GCE ‘O’ Level
Examination results.
2.2 All students successfully admitted to a school through the Direct School Admission-JC (DSA-
JC) / Direct Poly Admission (DPA) Exercises will not be able to participate in JAE. They will be
informed of the school they have been admitted to under the DSA-JC/DPA together with the
release of the GCE ‘O’ Level Examination results.

in the JAE but who wish to apply for admission to a JC, MI, ITE or polytechnic course, as
follows:

may participate in the Joint Intake Exercise (JIE) for National ITE Certificate (Nitec)
courses conducted by ITE annually. For courses offered under JIE and application
instructions, please see ITE’s admission booklet or website www.ite.edu.sg.
3.3 To apply for a Polytechnic Course
3.3.1 Students with special talents and aptitude may also participate in the Joint Polytechnic
Special Admissions Exercise (JPSAE) which is accessible at
www.polytechnic.edu.sg. The JPSAE application period coincides with that of the
JAE. Students may participate in both the JAE and JPSAE. Consideration for
admission under both the JAE and JPSAE would be separate, and successful
applicants may be offered a course under the JAE and another course under the
JPSAE. Students who are offered courses under both JAE and JPSAE can decide to
accept one of the 2 offers. For acceptance of posting to polytechnics under either JAE
or JPSAE, students are to enrol in the chosen course during the common enrolment
period for JAE/JPSAE postings set by the polytechnics.
3.3.2 Students may, in addition, participate in other application exercises conducted

individually by the polytechnics [called the Direct Admissions Exercise (DAE)]. Students
interested to participate in the DAE should contact the relevant polytechnics directly.
* Current Higher Nitec students and recently dismissed students who wish to seek readmission to ITE should approach ITE
directly instead of participating in JAE. Any JAE posting of these students to ITE could be invalidated by ITE.

(School Candidates) and are eligible for JAE will receive Form A from the secondary

Other School Features

Founded in 1984 and located centrally in Ang Mo Kio, Anderson Junior College has grown from its humble beginnings into the top
junior college of the North Zone. The college is built on and sustained by a strong caring ethos as reflected in the college motto “Non
Mihi Solum” (Not for Myself Alone). This caring culture motivates AJCians to reach for greater heights, achieve their fullest potential
and empower them to serve their community, while supported and guided by a team of nurturing and committed teachers and school
leaders.
Academic Excellence
Our student-centred learning approaches focus on quality innovative teaching and academic excellence. The college seeks to
stretch students beyond the confines of the classroom in their learning experience. Students who are strong in academics are
enrolled into the Alpha Programme which seeks to stretch them beyond the academic field to leadership and service and groom
them to be scholars and leaders.
The Science Research Programme is well-established in the college. Science students are exposed to science research at various
levels in their time with the college. As Anderson JC is the North Zone Centre of Excellence for Science, our Elementz Lab,
equipped with high-end science research equipment is located onsite. The college also has its own Nanotechnology Lab. Our
students are involved in the MOE Science Research Programme (SRP), the Nanyang Research Programme (NRP), the Institute of

The AJ experience is further enhanced by well-integrated customised programmes that aim at the holistic development of AJCians.
These programmes stretch AJCians in Student Leadership and Community Involvement through Service Learning while developing
their character through the acquisition of critical Lifeskills and Values. AJCians are also given the opportunity to pick up a new skill,
acquire a new hobby or simply learn something new about themselves – in this, they are allowed to exercise choice in their selection
of modules in the college’s Civics Electives programme, Festival of Life for the aesthetics and Sports Education Programme. To help
AJCians realise their potential and ambitions, they are exposed to Career Guidance to prepare them for study and career after their
time with the college.
The college has a wide array of quality CCA programmes to suit student interests. The college is renowned for its excellent
performing arts group such the college Choir which has been in the Choral Excellence Programme since 2002 and regularly
achieves top honours at national and international competitions. In 2008, at the 10th Concorso Corale Internazionale in Riva del
Garda, Italy, not only was the Choir awarded the Gold V Diploma and was the Champion in the Mixed Youth Choirs category, it was
also crowned the winner of the Public Prize and the Grand Prize. The college Symphonic Band was awarded Gold with Distinction at
the 2008 National Band Competition and was placed 2nd overall. The college’s Chinese Orchestra, Dance and cultural groups have

The Anglo-Chinese School (Independent), founded in 1886, is one of the premier educational institutions in Singapore. It is a Methodist
institution with a strong foundation in Christian values and principles, a tradition of excellence, and a global perspective. The school
philosophy is firmly grounded in the belief that the students are serious in intent and are therefore expected to work hard to achieve
excellence in their studies as much as in non-academic pursuits. Every staff member provides learning opportunities for each child and is
strongly encouraged to help in the achievement of these expectations by the parents and supporters of the school (Old Boys’ Association,
Church, Alumni, Board of Management and other stakeholders). Our vision is that every ACSian will be A Scholar, Officer, and Gentleman
for Year 1 to 4 and A Scholar, Leader and Global Citizen for Year 5 and 6 - a person who shows excellence in learning, in leading and in
living. With these aspects of character fully-developed, the ACSian will be equipped and educated to serve society well in his later life.

Other School Features
1. NJC Integrated Programme with Boarding

NJC provides a seamless 6-year Integrated Programme with Boarding. We firmly believe in the holistic development of our students
in the moral, cognitive, physical, social and aesthetic domains. Being a school with a rich and illustrious history, our programmes are
anchored in values and culture and are, at the same time, forward looking, to prepare our pupils to successfully meet the challenges
of the future. The major thrusts of our Integrated Programme with Boarding are:
Sustained development of character

NJC will adopt a holistic and developmental approach towards character education, by integrating and infusing values across
into the academic and non-academic domains of the curriculum starting from Secondary 1. This will provide students with
seamless learning of content knowledge, skills and values, for example, during science and literature lessons, outdoor activities,
and other enrichment activities.
140
Leadership development in all domains - intellectual, social, physical and aesthetic
Students will experience different aspects of leadership development to develop their individual abilities. For example, students
will be exposed to leadership theory, strategic thinking and philosophy and learn from inspiring role models. They will have
opportunities to conceptualise, plan and organise, manage and participate in special activities that will help them and their peers
develop as leaders.
Opportunities to nurture rootedness and community awareness

NJC places great emphasis on National Education. Students will have more time to develop strong relationships with peers,
seniors and form a close attachment to the College. There will be more opportunities to serve, contribute and give back to the
community. Such bonds contribute towards a heightened sense of rootedness to the nation. Through the diversity of
experiences made possible by the 6-year IP, students will also be exposed to the thinking and principles behind social/economic
policies as well as future leadership challenges.
Modular Curriculum from Secondary 1 to 4

Apart from the foundational modules, students will get to choose from a range of elective modules. Block scheduling will enable
students to engage in a choice of collaborative and research projects with varied opportunities to work with their seniors.
Boarding Experience
All students who join NJC from Sec 1 will get to experience boarding at different junctures of their school life at NJC. Student
leaders in JC will also have the opportunity to experience boarding. This diverse mix of students will allow for a rich boarding
experience for all students.
For more details about the NJC Integrated Programme, please visit our website at http://www.njc.edu.sg
2. Science Training and Research Programme

The College hosts Sigma Labs - South Zone Science and Technology Centre. This Centre of Excellence aims to create an
awareness of and cultivate a research culture in the sciences through a variety of activities that cater to students of different abilities
and interests. We have the state-of-the-art equipment, normally found only in universities and research facilities.
Sigma Lab’s flagship programme is the Science Training and Research (STaR) Programme. This is a six-month enrichment
programme that equips selected students with basic scientific research skills and opportunities to conduct science research projects
under the mentorship of scientists. It is exclusive to our College and is offered to outstanding Science students. Students will be
involved in advanced research and scientific training using sophisticated instruments and equipment, as well as engage in full-time
research attachment with our partners from renowned A*STAR research institutes and other institutes of higher learning, such as
Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (IMCB), Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology (IBN), Institute of Material Research
and Engineering (IMRE), Institute of High Performance Computing (IHPC), Institute of Chemical Engineering and Science Ltd (ICES),
NUS and NTU and many more.
The College also provides overseas research attachment for selected students to the Korea Science Academy (Korea), Intellectual
Boarding School (Russia), Moscow Chemical Lyceum (Russia) and Waseda University Honjo Senior High School (Japan). Numerous
student participants graduate annually in the STaR Symposium to mark the end of their research attachment. Those who excel are
highly encouraged to participate in the Singapore Science and Engineering Fair (SSEF) and A Star Talent Search (A*TS).
The NUS-A*STAR-NJC H3 Research, also known as H3-Science Training and Research (H3-STaR) Programme is a H3 subject that
takes the mode of a scientific research project. This programme is designed for academically able NJC students who are inclined
towards science research. It aims to develop, in these students, scientific inquiry skills, advanced laboratory techniques, and critical
thinking. The programme requires the students to extend their H2 Science subjects in a 6-month research study in a specific area in
Science.
Each student will undertake a individual research study and would be mentored by qualified scientists from the Research Institutes
(RIs) and supervised by Science teachers from NJC.
3. Sapphire Scholars Programme – Every Student a Leader

Our Sapphire Scholars Programme seeks to prepare motivated NJCians for scholarships and entry into prestigious universities
through a systematic programme of enrichment activities. The Programme aims to develop:
Well-rounded individuals who excel in their studies and also possess a strong portfolio on their CCA involvement;
Confident and discerning individuals who are knowledgeable about geopolitical issues and can conduct themselves well in any
situation;
Committed individuals who have a strong sense of dedication and sharing towards the community and nation.
All Sapphire Scholars are given the flexibility to chart their own development. However, guidance is always close at hand if needed.
Each Sapphire Scholar is allocated an experienced tutor (called a Sapphire Mentor) who will advise and guide his/her charge so that
they constantly shape their personal targets and overall portfolio towards attaining the scholarship of their choice. Apart from this
guidance, students on the Sapphire scheme will also be given further leadership opportunities and exposure to give them the added
competitive edge in their applications for top scholarships and universities.
4. Accelerated Mathematics Programme

The Accelerated Mathematics Programme provides capable Mathematics students with opportunities to develop a deeper
understanding of Mathematics. The Programme includes a more rigourous and challenging Mathematics curriculum, Mathematics-
related Research opportunities, participation in Mathematics competitions as well as Mathematics-related enrichment activities.
141
5. Art Elective Programme
NJC is the first junior college to offer the Art Elective Programme (AEP). With a rich and varied curriculum, artistically talented
students are offered the opportunity to experiment and develop their interests through various media which will deepen and widen
their knowledge and appreciation of Art and Design. These include drawing and painting, sculpture, graphic design, ceramics,
photography, printmaking, 3D computer modelling and animation, and video editing. The programme also emphasises the theoretical
aspect of art education - students have to undertake a course in the critical and historical aspects of Southeast Asian and Western
Art so as to provide them with the foundational knowledge for art criticism. Our AEP students have participated in external exhibitions
and received numerous accolades for their outstanding work.
6. Humanities Scholars Programme

The Humanities Scholars offer H2 Literature in English and other humanities subjects as part of the requirement of the scholarship
awarded by MOE. As part of the holistic development of the scholars, they are directly involved in 2 overseas programmes:
1. Overseas Enrichment Programme (OEP) - The programme is designed to enhance their appreciation and understanding of
History, Geography, Economics and socio-political-cultural aspects of our neighbouring countries. The programme is partly
funded by the Ministry as part of the award of the Humanities Scholarship.
2. The Humanities Scholars Programme in NJC also extends the OEP to a twinning programme with a top Vietnamese High
School for the first part of the exchange programme.
7. NJC Music Programme

The NJC Music Programme provides musically talented students with the opportunity to acquire a higher proficiency in music,
thereby building the foundation for further music studies at higher levels. It aims to develop critical thinking, listening and creativity
through music studies and interpretative activities like composing and performing. At the same time, it aims to cultivate keen
awareness of local and global musical cultures.
8. Attachments, Immersion & Exchange Programmes

In line with the College's vision to nurture our student's passion for knowledge in a vibrant learning environment, we provide
opportunities for our students to have firsthand experience through attachment programmes with the local as well as overseas
tertiary educational institutions, companies and grassroots organisations. The attachments aim to deepen our students' interest in
particular disciplines (like law and medicine) and professions, and also to increase their awareness of their role as members of
society and how they can contribute to it. Similarly, cultural exchanges with reputable overseas institutions serve to enable our
students to gain an understanding of the culture as well as to improve their proficiency in the language of the host country. Deserving
particular mention are the Memoranda of Understanding (MOU) the College signed with Korea Science Academy (KSA), the premier
education institution of science and technology in Korea in 2005, and with Waseda University Honjo Senior High School in Japan in
2007. The MOUs establish sustained partnerships with these overseas schools to allow NJC students to go on research attachments
or engage in collaborative projects and exchange programmes. Our Attachment Programmes comprises:
A total of about 70 research placements with renowned institutions of higher learning both local and overseas in fields such as
mathematics, chemistry, electronics and material engineering.
Cultural / sports student exchange programmes with schools in China, Germany, Japan, Korea, Russia, Taiwan and Vietnam.
Work attachments with various private companies, law firms, hospitals and other organisations.
