The school uses the Direct School Admissions (DSA) Exercise, including a written test and a selection camp, to obtain its cohort of about 200 students. The school does not take part in the Secondary 1 Posting Exercise, and extra slots are filled in by the Supplementary Intake Exercise (SIE).
The school is also the sixth school in the FutureSchools@Singapore Programme, relying fully on Information and Communications Technology (ICT) for its specialised curriculum.[1][2]
