EOYs didn't go to plan? Good news —

POA Crash Course: Fix Sec 3 Before Sec 4 Punishes It.

Sec 4 doesn't revise Sec 3 — it builds on it, fast. Adjustments, financial statements, business entities: all double entry wearing bigger hats. This holiday is the one window to rebuild the foundation properly. Take the three core topics, or retake the whole Sec 3 year in 16 lessons.

Three ways in: full package, core package or Double Entry Basics

Full package: buy 12 lessons, get 4 free (all 7 topics, 16 lessons)

A student rebuilding POA foundations before Sec 4

What is the Master POA crash course?

It is a Nov/Dec 2026 holiday crash course that rebuilds the Sec 3 Principles of Accounts syllabus before Sec 4 in 2027. Teacher Caleb teaches all 7 Sec 3 topics logic-first with the LEAP Framework, online or at Serangoon and Tampines. Options: full package ($960, 16 lessons), core package ($560) or Double Entry Basics ($240).

Fact-checked against the 2026 MOE POA syllabus · Last updated 17/09/2026

12 Months

From The First Day Of Sec 4 To The Real Exam.

Once Sec 4 starts, new topics stack onto Sec 3 foundations every single week. Students who enter with strong fundamentals spend their energy mastering new concepts — everyone else spends it catching up. The Nov/Dec holiday is focused learning with zero homework competing for attention.

Reality check

Why "We'll Sort It Out In Sec 4" Doesn't Work

Sec 4 Builds On Sec 3

There is no scheduled revision window when school starts. The syllabus marches on — with or without the foundation underneath it.

Advanced Topics Come Fast

Adjustments, financial statements, business entities — every one of them assumes the double entry, ledgers and statements from Sec 3 are second nature.

Prelims Arrive In August

The first full-syllabus exam is barely 8 months into Sec 4. A shaky foundation shows up there first — and college applications see it.

The curriculum

What The POA Crash Course Covers

All 7 Sec 3 topics, taught logic-first with the LEAP Framework. Take Double Entry Basics in sequence; everything else in any order. Short on time? The core package covers the three topics where most marks leak.

Trial Balance & Financial Statements + FS Adjustments come free with the full package ($960). These 4 bonus lessons run once, live online only on BigMarker (7–9 Dec) — there is no onsite session for them.

Students Who Rebuilt In December

★★★★★

"When I was Secondary 3, I hated POA as I would always get D7 and below. In MPOA, Caleb taught POA with passion. I took my N-Level and got an A."

"We were skeptical about online lessons at first, but my daughter understood everything taught in just 3 days. The intensive format really works."

Common questions

Before You Book

Which package should my child take?

Start from the EOY paper. If marks leaked across most of Sec 3, take the full package (all 7 topics, 16 lessons). If the trouble is mainly double entry, receivables and payables, or income and expense, the core package (8 lessons) covers those. If only the foundation is shaky, Double Entry Basics (3 lessons) is enough. Unsure? Message Tabby on WhatsApp with the results slip and we'll recommend honestly.

Is there a sequence to attend?

Only Double Entry Basics must be attended in order (lessons 1→2→3). Every other module can be taken in any order.

Can we start with a smaller package and upgrade later?

Yes — if you switch to the full package later, you pay the difference at the regular price. Taking the full package upfront is the cheaper route if you expect to need most topics.

What if a lesson clashes with our December plans?

Every lesson is recorded and uploaded within 48 hours, accessible until the end of the 2027 SEC exams. Onsite students can also join the same lesson live online with digital worksheets.

My child did badly all year. Is this enough?

The full package retakes the entire Sec 3 syllabus, logic-first — for most students that's the reset they need before Sec 4. If we think your child needs more than that, we'll say so before you pay.

What happens after we register?

We confirm your seat and payment details with you. You then receive the class details and timing, and your child gets an invitation to our student learning dashboard with the Welcome Pack and pre-lesson recordings.

When is the POA crash course?

Double Entry Basics runs first, with online, Serangoon and Tampines runs. The remaining topics continue through November and December at Serangoon, Tampines and live online, so every lesson is done before Sec 4 starts in January 2027. Lessons are 1.5 hours. The 4 free bonus lessons in the full package (Trial Balance & Financial Statements, and Financial Statement Adjustments) run once only, live online on BigMarker — they are not held onsite. Exact dates are in the schedule above.

How much does the POA crash course cost?

The full package is $960 for 16 lessons (buy 12, get 4 free). The core package is $560 for 8 lessons. Double Entry Basics on its own is $240 for 3 lessons.

Where are the classes held?

Live online, or onsite at Serangoon or Tampines (near Tampines Hub). Onsite students can also join a lesson live online. The 4 free bonus lessons in the full package are online only, delivered live on BigMarker.

Is it for O-Level (G3) or N-Level (G2) POA?

Both. The course covers the Sec 3 POA syllabus that G3 (O-Level) and G2 (N-Level) students need before Sec 4. Private candidates are welcome too.
