Where to take it

Find out which schools offer the AEP.

Students may take an in-house programme in an AEP school or a centre-based programme at the AEP Centre.

AEP secondary schools

AEP Centre

National Junior College is an AEP Centre that offers centralised weekly lessons only to students who are not enrolled in AEP or EAP schools.

AEP lesson schedule as follows:

AEP Centre Lower Secondary
Upper Secondary
National Junior College

3pm to 6pm on Tuesdays

Note: AEP Centre students will be attending these lessons instead of taking lower secondary Art lessons at their own schools.

Fees and subsidy

AEP students do not need to pay any additional school fees.

Students enrolled in the AEP within an Independent School, such as Hwa Chong Institution and Nanyang Girls’ High School, are eligible for a subsidy on their school fees with a cap of $2,400 per student yearly.

  • The fee subsidy applies to all nationalities.
  • Edusave scholarships for Independent Schools (ESIS) awardees receiving the maximum ESIS coverage of $2,400 will not receive the fee subsidy in addition to their ESIS award amount.
  • Students who are accepted into the AEP Centre and enrolled in other Independent Schools do not qualify for the fee subsidy.
