Conditional Offers for PFP Students who offer a mix of N- and O-level subjects can be given conditional offers to PFP/DPP based on N-level actual results and O-level prelim results Students who accept firm/conditional offers will not be enrolled into Sec 5 Students whose conditional offers are withdrawn after the release of O-level results will be admitted to Sec 5.

How do I apply for the PFP Eligible students will receive a form with a PIN upon release of N-level results They should use PIN to log on to PFP/DPP website to create an account A password will then be emailed to them for online application for PFP/DPP PFP: application phase from 17 Dec – 19 Dec 12 (4 pm) DPP: application phase from 17 Dec – 20 Dec 12 (5pm)

Can Sec 4NA students who have sat for a mix of 'O'-Level and 'N'-Level subjects apply using their GCE 'O'-Level results? Yes. Upon release of the GCE 'O'-Level results, newly-eligible students who were previously ineligible based on their school-based 'O'-Level preliminary examination results will be invited to apply for the PFP. Students who rejected the offer of a PFP place prior to release of the GCE 'O'-Level results will not be allowed to reapply. 

Can I appeal for a change of course for PFP? You may only appeal for a change of course if you have been offered a PFP course that was not among your five choices. You need to first accept the offer and then submit your appeal online at the end of the January application phase. However, if your appeal is unsuccessful, you will be required to enrol in the course that you accepted and will not be allowed to return to Secondary 5. Hence, you should only choose to accept an offer if you are prepared to enrol in the course that was offered to you. Appeals should be submitted online 16 – 18 January application phase. All other appeals will not be considered. Students whose PFP applications are still unsuccessful after the round of appeals are required to report back to their schools to commence Secondary 5.

How are students assessed during the PFP? The PFP assessment structure will thus comprise a mix of -coursework assignments, projects, class tests and/or end-of-semester examinations. Upon passing all their PFP modules, students will be admitted to the first year of their pre-selected polytechnic courses.

What happens when students discontinue or fail the PFP?  Students who discontinue or fail the PFP may apply for admission to ITE's Higher Nitec programmes. pursue their GCE 'O'-Level examinations as a private candidates, or approach their secondary schools for re-admission in January the following year. Students are not allowed to repeat the PFP. They are encouraged to remain committed to the PFP and progress to their diploma programmes upon successful completion of the PFP.

Will the PFP be recognised at the workplace? PFP students will be issued a certificate by their respective polytechnics upon successful completion of the PFP, but it is not a course that leads to a qualification for employment. Upon successful completion of the PFP, students are expected to matriculate into their pre-selected polytechnic courses to obtain their diploma qualifications.

Think before you act… Choose your choice wisely Know your strength & abilities Your future lies in your hands, do not follow your friends blindly

Thank you
