Visualise The Onsite Experience
Here's How Keep Your Child Safe With Enhanced Measures
From the beginning, your child's safety and well-being have always been important to us. We will be adopting a series of government-mandated measures to make our onsite experience as safe as possible for our learners.
SafeEntry Registration & Temperature Screening
Every student authorised to attend onsite lessons will need to report to the Temperature Screening Station before attending the class:
(i) Undergo health screening (temperature taking & health declaration)
(ii) Check in via TraceTogether-Only SafeEntry if the following conditions are met:
- You/your child have not had close contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case in the past 14 days
- You/your child are not currently under a Quarantine Order or Stay-Home Notice
- You/your child do not have a fever or flu-like symptoms
- You/your child agree to the terms and consent to the collection and use of your information for the purpose of COVID-19 contact tracing
✳️ Please ensure that your child brings along his/her TraceTogether token or mobile phone with the TraceTogether App to facilitate the SafeEntry processing.
⚠️NOTE:
(1) The TraceTogether Token or App is mandatory from 1 June 2021 onwards. Students without the token or the app will not be allowed to enter the premises.
(2) SafeEntry Check-in via SingPass or Mobile QR code will no longer be accepted from 17 May 2021 onwards. Scanning of barcodes on personal identification cards to check in to venues will still be allowed until 31 May 2021.
(3) If your child is living in the same household as a family member who is unwell, he/she should not be attending his/her onsite lesson for that particular week.
(4) Students and staff who are unwell (i.e. fever or respiratory symptoms) will not be allowed to enter our premises.
(5) Students and staff who are on Health Risk Warning (HRW) are encouraged to minimise unnecessary social interactions and may only be allowed to enter the centre if they produce photoevidence of a negative Antigen Rapid test (ART) taken on that day.
Disinfection Between Classes & Regular, Extensive Sanitisation Efforts
Classrooms will also be thoroughly sanitised before and after classes.
We have also stepped up our sanitisation efforts in classrooms and common areas with the use of NEA-approved professional cleaners.
Deep cleaning by fogging non-toxic, skin-friendly chemicals have also been scheduled on a weekly basis.
Revised In-Class Seating Arrangement
Students attending onsite lessons will be split into groups of 5 with at least 1-metre distancing between groups.
As much as possible, we will attempt to assign onsite classes across all of our classrooms in the other units on the same level to avoid intermingling between students.
Entry/exit timings of all students will also be staggered.
Use of Masks
All students will be required to wear a mask at the Centre. Students can choose to wear a face shield on top of a mask for additional protection if desired.
Easy Access to Sanitisers
Automated hand sanitiser dispenser machines have also been installed along all common areas for students to use when necessary.
Safe Distancing Control In Common Areas
Aside from the installation of safe distancing markers on the ground, safe distancing ambassadors will also be deployed to remind students to keep a safe distance from each other.
As much as possible, parents who are picking up their children should make pick-up arrangements at Level 1 to avoid crowding the waiting areas.
Changes to Reception Operations
Our Reception will also remain CLOSED for enquiries and payment.
If you would like to learn more about our programmes or products, please contact us via WhatsApp, Email or Live Chat.

Your child is the kind of student who wants to outperform his/ her peers & study the SMART way, like many other high performing students.
Students who are having tuition that simply do not work for them.
You probably have invested thousands of dollars & months of time, but it’s just not working out.
Your child isn’t exactly progressing much & you’re looking for a change in environment.
Existing high performing students who want to strengthen their thought process & refine their answers to perfection!
Your child has been consistently scoring B3/A2, but struggle to get a breakthrough to the A1, no matter how hard he/she has tried.
Don’t Just Take Our Word For It.
Hear What Parents Have To Say About Their Kids’ Experience With Us.
Very Useful & Helpful!
“The S1 CCI was very helpful. Before attending the session, my daughter had difficulty in understanding certain Science concepts.
After attending the session, she has a better understanding of the topics and is now able to solve the questions using efficient methods. She is also able to use the notes and extra practices provided for revision.
Overall, the course was very useful and helpful and I highly recommend the course to other parents.
Emphasise On Keywords & Concepts
“Answering Section B of Science has always been a problem for Joshua. He is not familiar with the technique that is unique in answering, causing him to lose a lot of marks.
After being with The Pique Lab since Primary 6 and now in Secondary 1, he has more confidence in answering short answer questions as the teachers emphasise on key words and concepts, which allowed him to have better understanding on how to tackle each question.
Joshua always tell me the teachers are very engaging, lessons were always fun to be in and explanation for every topics were always so clear. I did not regret sending Joshua to The Pique Lab and will definitely introduce my friends to such a great learning centre.
Thank you for all your effort, Mr Mak and all teachers in Pique Lab.
Learnt A Lot More & Understand Much More!
“Dorothy was an ex-student of your regular class in her primary school. She did well during her PSLE. However, transiting into Secondary school was a different story altogether and she struggled with new concepts and theories. Thus when this opportunity came to attend your holiday lesson, she immediately jumped onto and look forward for class.
After the 2 days class, she came back with very positive feedback and she said she definitely learned a lot more and understand much more than before.
Kudos to Kenneth for his great teaching!
If You’re Still On The Fence, Hear Us Out.
Over the past 9 years, we’ve seen more than 3,451 students attend the CCI Science Course, achieving phenomenal improvements in their understanding of the subject matter & more importantly, their results.
We’ve been getting these raving testimonials from happy parents weekly after their kids have benefitted immensely from our help. Click here to see what other parents have been saying about our CCI Science Courses.
In case you’re wondering…
This is NOT one of those enrichment programs where students gain loads of theories and do nothing with them afterwards!
As your child will get to apply whatever they’ve learned directly on school examination questions during the course … by the time your child has completed the course, he/ she will be trained on how to tackle his/ her school homework & school examination papers accurately & efficiently.
Not a month later… or even a week later, but immediately!
During the S1 CCI™ Physics course, we’ll be revealing some massively potent studying strategies used by our top-performing students. These strategies have helped them save hours studying every day and yet allow them to score A1s during their school examinations time & time again!
So… if you are looking for:
1) A highly robust methodology to sharpen your child’s Science answering techniques, especially in their open-ended section (… such that he/she no longer loses marks unnecessarily due to missing links, key words or key phrases)
2) An engaging teacher with a strong proven track record (… trust me: teachers make or break the learning experience for students. Set them up with the right teacher & they’ll enjoy the learning process for life)
3) A comprehensive set of visually-appealing revision materials that high-performing students use to excel in their examinations (… you’d want your child to get his/her hands on these materials & start revising now. The best part: Your child doesn’t have to spend countless of hours trying to study, because we’ve distilled the most important parts to take note!)
… then this course may just be perfect for your child.
Now, let’s be real. Is this going to be easy?
There is ALWAYS going to be a bit of discomfort, uncertainty and plenty of hard work when your child is trying to learn and apply our answering structures to tackle examination questions. That is normal & many of our students go through the same process all the time.
Once your child pushes past that discomfort, that’s when you will notice real growth in his/her learning. It will not be a walk in the park, but we have plenty of materials & close guidance to help your child improve his/her answering techniques!
We’ll see your child at the workshop!
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the S1 CCI™ Physics Course different from other tuition programs out there?
It’s NOT a trial class nor a typical program where you expect 20-30 students crammed in a class, in a bid to do some last-minute rescue work. The CCI™ Science course is designed to solidify your child’s fundamentals in Science, so he/ she can tackle open-ended Science questions with ease & precision.
Here’s how it works: Throughout our teaching careers, we have perfected a number of strategies and tactics that are proven to work for our students. More importantly, these strategies are carefully documented in our course material, so these best practices could be taught effectively to new students. We will not hold any back “secret tactics” (unlike traditional kungfu masters) & these strategies would be EXACTLY THE SAME as the ones taught to our high performers.
Please note that our S1 Complete Concept Integration™ Physics Course is not for everyone. They work best for students who have the will & determination to do well, but are lacking the right strategies to get to A1. Our strategies are all meat and no fluff. If you want lengthy theories, please read the textbook instead. Our S1 CCI™ Science course is all about taking action and getting results as quickly and easily as possible!
Will there be breaks in between classes?
Yes, we typically offer a 5-10 minutes break for every 1-hour of learning.
Will there be homework provided during the workshop?
There’ll not be any homework given during the workshop. The S1 CCI™ Physics Course is a highly intensive workshop. Both concepts and answering techniques will be taught in class and we’ll teach your child how to apply these techniques on secondary school examination questions.
We will give your child a question booklet containing a curated list of open-ended questions adapted from secondary school examination papers. These questions have been adapted from different schools & sorted based on their topics. A portion of the questions will be attempted & reviewed in class. The remaining questions can be brought home for their own practice. We’ll also send you an answer booklet for the questions in the S1 CCI™ Physics Course.
My child is in the IP/ IB/ IGCSE academic track. Is your programme suitable?
Our S1 CCI™ Physics Course is designed based on the G3 (Formerly O-Level (Express)) track.
Based on research, it appears that there’re only minor differences in terms of content coverage between the O-Level (Express) track and the IP/IB/IGCSE track at a lower secondary level.
As such, it will be suitable for your child to participate if he/she is interested.
Who is the instructor for the class?
Our classes are conducted by our team of highly-popular Science Specialists.
Our Science Specialists have collectively more than ten years of teaching experience under their belts. During which, they have experimented with plenty of studying strategies, keywords & template answers. More importantly, they know what works for the student and what doesn’t.
Using the proven techniques from our Complete Concept Integration™ program, they have helped more than 80% of their students clinch As during their Science examination. Seasoned by experience, they’re known among parents for building rapport with their students & helping them achieve tremendous academic results in the shortest period of time.
What is the maximum class size?
Our S1 CCI™ Physics Course is typically fully booked. You can expect the class to have 14 to 16 students.
What kind of materials would my child be getting?
Your child would be receiving a comprehensive set of notes, covering a selected number of Secondary 1 Physics topics (see above) that we’ll be discussing during the S1 CCI™ Physics Course. On top of that, he/she will be receiving a question booklet containing a curated list of open-ended questions adapted from secondary school examination papers.
These questions have been carefully adapted different schools & sorted based on their topics. As such, your child would have the opportunity to apply the thought processes and answering techniques learnt on these questions immediately.
