Through this Lower Secondary programme, students will have opportunities to show their creativity in their designs, learn technology topics and go through the whole design process.
Key Learning Experiences in Upper Secondary
- Design Project
For the Upper Secondary Programme, Design & Technology is offered to the Normal Academic and Express stream students. D&T is a coursework-based subject where students are taught how to do problem-solving through intensive research, tackling their identified problems and solving them through design and make. A theme will be given each year and students have to design their projects relating to the theme. - Building Design Skills Workshop

EVG’s P.R.I.S.M Programme (Powering Real-World Interdisciplinary Student Music Experiences)
Here at Evergreen Secondary, students automatically join a two (mandatory) + two (optional) year in-house Programme (PRISM) that develops students into songwriters, singers and critical thinkers. Opportunities are given for students to develop their music craft and a robust in-house two-year GMP programme is dedicated to helping them achieve a basic ability to write songs on their own. -
EVG’s Your Voice! Songwriting Programme
Songwriting rewards immensely. When students get the opportunity to craft their own song from scratch, the fulfilling experience convinces them that there is joy in learning. A song done well creates a strong sense of ownership and belief in the inherent value of the student’s voice. For many, it uncovers hidden talents that leads to a daring entrepreneurial spirit.
