Administrative and Operational Matters:

Education hours: Depending on availability, you can choose to attend classes in the mornings, afternoons or evenings: 10.45 am – 12.45 pm, 1.45 pm – 3.45 pm, 7.30 pm – 9.30 pm (Not all these sessions will be utilized in a single day).
Education calendar: In terms of weeks, terms, months and semester of study as well as no-lesson days, SLA generally follows the same academic calendar as those of government secondary schools and junior colleges in Singapore, so that families and staff with children in public secondary schools can better align their social activities. However, graduating students may be asked to attend extra lessons or take internal examinations in the June holidays.
