PSLE English Oral SBC Workshop

Public workshops are now open for registration

This workshop is designed for students to approach the SBC as a communication skill and to develop and empower them to speak about any topic with confidence and fluency. By breaking down the questions, we aim to bring awareness of the logic and structure behind crafting an answer that is comfortable for them. With the workshop, we aim to encourage students to lean on their own experiences, making it familiar and comfortable and we work towards coaching them to express their thoughts in a confident manner.

The workshop will use the new 2025 PSLE Oral Examination format.
