(Secondary 3 students looking to enrol in 'O' Level Art )
The EAP in St Andrew's Secondary school is offered to Secondary 3 students who are interested in furhering their love for art and design after experiencing the foundational lower secondary art curriculum. EAP students are exposed to different art practices to help them build a strong foundation for art making and art appreciation. They will be equipped with the necessary aptitude while nurturing their creativity and technical skills for the future.
