Sec 2 Maths
In Secondary 2 Math, there is a huge emphasis on ALGEBRA where students will be required to solve both linear and quadratic equations. This would include real-life questions that adopts algebra as a model to solve the question.
As Algebra is a topic repeated in ALL the subsequent topics taught in secondary 2, students with a poor foundation will struggle to keep up with the rest of the topics taught. Hence, it is very important to start the year on the right foot.
Our Secondary 2 Maths Bridging Course is specially designed to help students build a strong foundation in Algebra which is essential to excel in Secondary Math.
With this in mind, the Secondary 2 Maths Bridging Course gives students a head start before school commences next year by providing a brief introduction to the following topics to ease their transition into a new level.
• Simultaneous Equations
• Quadratic Graphs and Equations
• Direct and Inverse Proportion
• Congruence and Similarity
• Pythagoras Theorem and Trigonometry Ratios
Students will be guided step-by-step in class with summary notes and questions. There will also be a topical diagnostic test at the end of each day to gauge students’ mastery of the topic.
Sec 2 Science
One common challenge seen among students moving from primary to secondary science is the struggle to understand topics learned in secondary school that builds upon the concepts taught in primary school.
The Secondary 2 Science Bridging Course gives students a head start before school commences next year by providing knowledge recaps of primary science and a brief introduction to new concepts.
The following topics are selected to ease students’ transition into secondary 2:
- Forces and pressure
- Energy and work done
- Transfer of heat energy (Conduction)
- Chemical changes
- Human sexual reproductive system
Students will receive a booklet with simplified notes and questions, and guided step-by-step in class. There will also be a mini recap quiz at the end of each topic to test for students’ understanding of what was taught.

What our students and their parents say
The teaching methods were very clear, which helped me understand topics better and led me to improve in my math and science a lot. The teachers are also very helpful and approachable. When I need help with something I do not understand, they are always there willing to help. I am very thankful to OLL for helping me improve and do well for my PSLE.
