Supercurricular and Extracurricular Programme for GCSE Students

Choosing a subject to study at degree level is one of the most important decisions a student will make.  Students aiming for a top-ranked university must not only achieve the right grades, but also be able to demonstrate a wide range of skills and knowledge beyond the conventional school curriculum.

The OIC Supercurricular programme takes students well beyond the GCSE syllabus by giving them more in-depth insight into various career paths and developing more profound knowledge and skills that will set them apart at A level and later at university. These skills include critical thinking, independent research and learning,  public speaking and industry knowledge in a range of potential careers.
