FAQ about CCA Points

Get FAQ questions about CCA at this PDF document such as this one:


Can I get CCA points when I return to my secondary school and volunteer my services there? What about other external organisations?
The SP CCA Points Awarding and Grading System applies only to approved activities by SP or its student clubs. Students must check with the Department of Student Development (DSD) that external activities are sanctioned by DSD before committing themselves. Students can also join the FOSTER programme co-ordinated by DSD that encourages continued involvement in their secondary school CCAs.
