Introduction

The Aesthetics, Craft & Technology Department (ACT) consists of four subjects – Art, Design & Technology (D&T), Food & Consumer Education (FCE) and Music. We are committed to equip students with critical and inventive thinking skills through our academic and non-academic programmes.

Besides our academic programme from the subjects offered, we also have non-academic programmes, namely the Arts Education Programme. There are three segments in the Arts Education Programme (AEP) - Exposure, Experience and Excursion.

AEP Exposure provides our students with the opportunity to understand different types of arts performances during assembly programmes

AEP Experience provides our students opportunities to learn an art form through workshops held during the post-examination period.

AEP Excursion provides our students opportunities to attend external arts-related exhibitions and performances
