WE'VE HAD STUDENTS FROMSUPPORTED BYFrequently Asked Questions1. If my child is under the age of 14 years old, can he/she attend this programme?Students under 14 years old may have a difficulty keeping up with the pace of the lessons and the activities that they will be involved in. Therefore, we would only recommend this programme to students aged 14 and above.2. What does my child need to bring for the programme?We recommend that your child bring along a laptop if possible so that they can bring their lessons home with them. Otherwise, we will have laptops for their use on premises.3. Are there any compulsory days that my child has to attend?In the event that you have purchased a 2 or 3 Day Pass for your child, the first day of the event is compulsory for your child to attend. The first day is structured to give them a better picture of what they can expect over the remainder of the course and also to allow your child to discover his/her passion and interests.Aside from the first day, your child is free to attend any day of the programme that he/she prefers.4. Can my child bring home his/her work after the programme has ended?Definitely! One of the main outcomes that we hope to acheive through this programme is to build up your child's portfolio for future course and job applications.
