The Mother Tongue Language (MTL) policy requires all students (including foreign students) to offer MTL. Students exempted from the Mother Tongue Language at the GCE O-Level Examination will be exempted from the Mother Tongue Language at the GCE A-Level Examination. Students who have been approved for exemption from taking a Mother Tongue Language or taking another language in place of an official Mother Tongue Language are deemed to have met the Mother Tongue threshold requirements for university admission. For conditional admission, re-sitting for the MTL at O-Level is still required.
