Etymology

Sayyidina Abu Bakar Secondary School is named after Abu Bakar, the first Muslim caliphate and a companion of Muhammad. The term 'Sayyidina' is a romanisation of the Arabic term سيدنا‎, which literally means 'Our Sayyid'. Sayyid It is an honorific commonly given to Muhammad and his male descendants.

Academics

Secondary education in the school generally lasts five years, although four years are also possible for selected students. Schooling begins in Year 7 and for the following two years students are assessed through Student Progress Assessment (SPA).[1] This Assessment will determine what streams they will be put into for the remaining years. A small top percentile may proceed to the 'Express' stream, where they will only finish in two years. Most students will finish the remaining schooling in three years.

At the end of Year 11 (or Year 10 of the 'Express' stream), students will sit for GCE 'O' Level examination. Results obtained will factor for entry into sixth form or technical and vocational education.
