Students who have accepted their DPP offers in December should not continue with Sec 5. Please inform the school General Office and 4NA CCs so that we need not reserve a place for you in Sec 5 in 2020.

21. Pathways for 4NA
For students who are uncertain and/or interested in both PFP and DPP:
If you are certain that you do not want to continue with Sec 5 and pursue the GCE O-Level, you SHOULD apply for the DPP in December. Upon the release of the GCE O-Level results in January, eligible students may apply for the PFP. If you are offered and accept a PFP place, you can then withdraw from the DPP.
Alternatively (Not Advisable)
You may progress to Sec 5 first. Upon release of the GCE O-Level results in January, you may then apply for the PFP and DPP concurrently (however, DPP chances will decrease after 1st round in Dec)

26. Pathways for 4NT (3) Retention at Sec 4NT
To cater to students who have applied but were not successful in securing any ITE course (including the e-NFP) by end January 2019, school can consider requests from such students to repeat their GCE N(T) examinations on a case-by-case basis.
