CSS students will graduate at Sec 4 with the Singapore-Cambridge Secondary Education Certificate (SEC) and the ITE Skills Subjects Certificate (ISSC). With these qualifications, CSS students can apply for Nitec courses at any of the three Institute of Technical Education (ITE) colleges.

Sec 4 students with special talent and skills aptitude e.g. sports, performing arts, technical & vocational skills may apply to ITE for early admission to their preferred Nitec courses via the ITE Early Admission Exercise, prior to the release of the Singapore-Cambridge Secondary Education Certificate (SEC) results.
