Art and Music Elective Programmes (AEP/MEP)

Art Elective Programme (AEP)

The AEP provides opportunities for artistically-inclined students to pursue a deeper and more comprehensive study of art. The AEP curriculum aims to develop students in their creativity, conceptual thinking and analytical thinking, and thereby develop them as practitioners, scholars, advocates and leaders in art. The extended and balanced Art curriculum covers both studio practice and art criticism, emphasising the engagement of a range of materials, media and creative processes. AEP students can expect access to specialised studio facilities, equipment and resources. They will receive enrichment opportunities to learn with like-minded peers from across the AEP schools, arts industry professionals and higher education students and staff.

At the end of the 4-year programme, AEP students sit for the G3 Higher Art examination.

As Manjusri Secondary School does not offer the Art Elective Programme (AEP) or Enhanced Art Programme (EAP), students can apply for the centre-based AEP at National Junior College (NJC) as an external student.

Music Elective Programme (MEP)

The MEP provides opportunities for musically-inclined students to pursue a deeper and more comprehensive study in the subject and develop an appreciation of the cultural diversity in music. The curriculum aims to develop students’ analytical, conceptual and creative thinking through active music learning. Learning experiences include analysing, creating and performing music across genres and traditions, including Asian, Jazz, Popular, Western Classical Music and Music in Multimedia. Opportunities will be provided for students to follow their own musical interest while discovering new strengths. In addition, students will also participate in combined enrichment events where they will learn and collaborate with peers across MEP schools and participate in programmes designed in partnership with the arts and creative industries and institutions.

At the end of the 4-year programme, MEP students sit for the G3 Higher Music examination.

As Manjusri Secondary School does not offer the Music Elective Programme (MEP) or Enhanced Music Programme (EMP), students can apply for the centre-based MEP at Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) (ACS (I)) or Dunman High School (DHS) as an external student. The application window for the 2025 intake will be open from 2 January 2024 to 15 January 2025.
