History

Construction of the campus was immediately put to a halt in 2014, after two separate accidents took place at the same construction site of the same project. [4] The first accident claimed the life an Indonesian worker, [5] while the second accident injured 9 other workers. [6] [7] On 31 October 2017, the school began applying fireproof materials to the building. [8]

Prior to the opening of the school on 16 November 2020 students carried out higher educations in the Sayyidina Ali Secondary School (SMSA). Amidst the 2nd wave of COVID-19 pandemic in Brunei in late 2021, the building was converted into a quarantine area with its designation as COVID-19 Holding Area Belait 6th Form (CHABEL6). [9] Therefore, educations were carried out virtually and later in the SMSA building once again. [2]

Sixth Form subjects

The school offers curriculum for the Cambridge 'A' and 'AS' levels, namely:

General Paper is a compulsory AS Level subject for all Sixth Form students, for which a credit 6 in BGCE "O" English Language is necessary. Sixth form students without a credit 6 in that subject usually sit again for it in June or November of their lower sixth year to enable them to undertake the GP course beginning in upper sixth.
