Nanyang Girls’ IP: 2025 Fusion Curriculum & Admissions

Q: What does the Nanyang Girls’ IP guide cover?
A: A quick brief on NYGH’s official IP curriculum framework, the Fusion programme introduced in 2024, the Mathematics/Science stretch opportunities, and current guidance on DSA and entrance examinations.

TL;DR
• NYGH’s six-year Integrated Programme brings students from Years 1–4 at Nanyang to Years 5–6 at Hwa Chong, stretching beyond O-Level demands with concept-based teaching grounded in bilingual heritage and service (IP curriculum overview).
• The 2024 Fusion curriculum integrates design thinking and maker education so students collaborate on real-world problem solving while developing digital, socio-emotional, and design literacies (same source).
• Mathematics routes include Integrated Math in lower secondary and choices of Integrated Math 2 or Advanced Mathematics in upper secondary, plus Olympiad opportunities (Mathematics programme).
• Science learning follows Core Concepts to ensure coherence across Biology/Chemistry/Physics, with enrichment via exhibitions, competitions, and the annual Science & Maths Festival (Science programme).
• Admissions for 2026 remain open via DSA and selected entrance exams; note that the Secondary 3 entrance exam is suspended for AY2026 due to zero vacancies (Admissions page).

Quick facts for families

• Nanyang girls move to Hwa Chong Institution in Year 5, so the IP is a straight six-year road from Sec 1 to JC2 (IP curriculum overview).
• The Fusion curriculum mixes design thinking and maker projects with simple, steady routines, helping every student test ideas hands-on (same source).
• Maths and science use clear pathways—Integrated Math, Advanced Math, and Core Concepts—so parents know what each year will cover (Mathematics programme; Science programme).
• DSA remains open, but the Sec 3 entrance exam is closed for 2026, so plan applications early (Admissions page).
